    printers are essentially throw away items at this point. some units are cheaper than the ink refills so it's more cost effective to buy an entirely new unit with it's fresh ink. A single item malfunctions in any way, same story.

    Another great street scrapping vid mate. I picked up a few bits today but nothing epic. A cheap brand LCD TV (I either repair them or resell or use the boards) and an Apple G4 Desktop. It was on the way to drop a vintage case to a customer in Brighton.
    In the UK, people have to take their hard waste to the dump/recycling centre so we don't have kerbside collections to rummage! :(
    I have to use selling and recycling platforms to source and collect my ewaste before people take it to the tip so an entirely different process!
    I always aim to repair or reuse over scrap but scrap too as the last resort. Keeps it all out of landfill :)
    Glad you're well mate and enjoying the regular uploads! :)
    Like the 'fridge is empty' and 'beers with the lads' challenges! Maybe under the current climate, do a 'energy/fuel companies are robbing bastards and have doubled my bills' challenge! 😂

    Ben, even though those microwaves have been scrapped for the transformers, the Magnetrons still contain about 1/4 pound of copper. the round part underneath the aluminum fins is made of copper. You should know they're really easy to remove from the microwaves, since they have already been opened up on the street, just pop in your power drill and remove 4 screws. The Scrapyards near me have "caught on" to the electrical transformer. They always check if it's aluminum or copper, if it's aluminum, it's just scrap steel. A lot of microwaves these days have the aluminum wire transformers making the magnetron the most valuable part of the microwave.
