   I am surprised there aren't more "scrappers" on this site, with prices up for copper and steel it can be profitable. At least Luka cares enough to post a reply, I feel better now!

   Scrappers get a bad rap.Pops has made a living for a couple decades or more, by scrapping.At over a dollar a pound, I may even start considering tearing apart that really really old line transformer. Probably get a good 30 to 50 pounds out of that thing...Stripped. Does that mean no varnish, as well ?

   Yep, "shining like a penny" is the description I got, but come to think of it I have seen some nast pennies before. If it is not stripped and clean the price drops quite a bit, to around .40 cents a pound.

   If I have to polish miles of copper wire, then just forget it... It's not worth the trouble and the long trip for the lower price. At the cost of gasoline now, I wouldn't even make gas money...
