Hello Scrappers, Just want to talk about stacking copper from CRTTelevisions
It's a very easy source of copper
Some people like to stack copper but they buy copper coins or bars for very inflated prices
This is a 1kg copper bar
People are paying like $20 for these
Basically this is just an industrial bar you can buy in lengths
10-20 ft long and all they do is cut to short lengths, stamp them and sell like that
This is not copper bullion, it's just an industrial copper
If your stacking copper for investment
It might be fun to have one of these bars but they're not really worth buying like this
Your much better off getting it free
Just about everywhere you look these days there's a few old crt tv's lying about
You only need to pick one up and you get a bit of copper out of it
You might get about 1lb off copper in a medium sized crt tv
A little bit more in a larger tv, a little less in a small portable tv
So basically this is a copper yoke, there's 4 pieces in here
Ijust don't understand why people buy copper bullion when it can be found for free
They can pay 20x copper value for a little 1oz coin
So if you want to stack some copper, because copper is a good thing to stack
Stack it in the form of e-waste
Getting it for free
Like I said you can find these tv's everywhere
So I have a little one here
Took off the top to give you an example
There's your copper yoke here..
All you need is too remove two screws
I carry a screwdriver in my car so when I see a tv, I take the yoke
That's it
You could also take the circuit board and the degaussing cable
Just give them a pull and they're easy
This one is only small
You can strip this and get some nice copper too
If you scrap them on the street, make sure you put the cover back on
This is the main thing you want
Free copper
Copper builds up over time
I stack it in buckets and store for investment
It's just like stacking gold :)
I'll smash a yoke to show you
So yeah, don't waste your money buying copper when it's free
You'll see for yourself, there's a lot of free copper everywhere
Just get a hammer and smash away
Nice piece of copper
this goes as burnt copper, or number 2 copper
Because it has the laquer coating and it's not bright and shiny
an extra spool here
These are ferrite pices with copper wrapped around
Metalic ferrite pieces can be sold as steel
This is just from one medium sized yoke
So go out and get your own free copper from tv's
Keep scrapping and i'll see you again next time!
