Good tips! That welder will be a copper treasure trove!
@@bearhardcorepicker I sure hope so. I believe it will be, but as you know, the dreaded aluminum is always lurking 😂
Either way, I’m going to have fun scrapping it.
@@scrapitall200 Yeah, the transformers do tend to be aluminium, but the cables are good and thick, and there should be some other copper inside the unit as well, even if the main coils are aluminium. Crossing my fingers for them being copper, though!
@@bearhardcorepicker exactly!
I’ve already started recording and I can tell you the cables produced an amazing amount of copper already.
Thank you for watching bud.
Ohhhhhh I see a mini Bertha 😊
Borrowed it from my dad, but I’m definitely getting one myself.
That was a cool tear down. Nice bunch of copper. Can’t wait to see that welder tear down.
Thank you!
Should be an awesome video.
Nice pay out on this scrap my friend...glad you're back and hope you enjoyed your staycation!
@@Virginianative1968 it sure was! 😁
Thank you my friend, I definitely did.
I love your Junkyard because Jesus lets me! That welder is going to be a copper mine oh you got lots of goodies there Brother!
That was a beefy old genny sure do see them to often like that anymore! Nice tear down and gift That's Right!
God Bless Brother
@@BushDogScrapper Thank you brother.
I’m really looking forward to scrapping that welder and making a video.
That was very nice of our buddy to send me that.
Praise Jesus brother!
Another great video my friend! I went to a funeral today for my best friend, killed on a motorcycle coming to my house on July 18th. He put on my way, 12 minutes later he was killed. I was completely devastated! Watching you and scrapping with Grandpa, and Ewaste Mike got me through. It’s tough! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Oh my goodness I am so incredibly sad to hear that 😢 I can’t imagine what you’re feeling and going through.
I’ll be praying for you!
@@scrapitall200 Thank You my friend! Please pray for the family of my dear friend also if you would? I’m heartbroken and I know they are too. He was 54 years old. But he should have been here for awhile longer. God bless you and Thank You very much
I will absolutely be praying for his family and all the ones who love him.
So incredibly sad 😢😢
@@scrapitall200 Thank You my dear friend!
@@EricScrapping4Dinidog you’re welcome.

Definitely a score for sure.

I'm going to need to buy a tent like you have or a shed to hold all of my scrap. My wife is being pushed out of the garage. It's funny how fast things build up just hobby scrapping.
@@cointenderrarities933 it really is amazing how fast stuff starts to pile up.
Thank you for watching.
Wow, alot of copper in that old generator.
Yeah I was quite surprised!

Nice teardown and payout. I've never seen one like that with those nice packs. Good to see you back, buddy.

Thank you buddy.
@scrapitall200 luckily you had the armature to balance it out. 😁
Right! 🤣
Awesome scrap session sir if you take the motor apart you get cast iron and number one prepared you just have to watch out for the oil as always thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother
@@josephcormier5974 my yard will give me cast iron for it as is and it’s the same price as prepared steel.
Thank you for watching brother.
Your hoard is looking good. I think the welder will have at least double that in it. Happy Scrappin

@@Sandy-u1o thank you so much!
Brilliant brother so much free stuff around recently love that piece of land you call home.
Thank you brother!
It’s so beautiful and peaceful here.
@@scrapitall200 it's awesome
I have 3 generators to do right now.The last one I did was aluminum and I lost my enthusiasm for them.now I gotta go out there and get at it!
rooster.
@@richardmckinney2646 it’s hit or miss with them it seems like, I hope you’ll get copper from the rest.
Thank you for watching.
Oh Yeah Gen Time
That’s right
That screw cutting method works on starter motors as well
@@brian56 exactly, that’s where I first tried that was on a starter.
Thank you for watching.
Imagine if you got that generator to work? All that copper suggests it cranked out a fair bit. Looked like it was pretty far gone though, so good call to mine it for minerals.
@@jamesfrench7299 yeah I think it had seen better days, but you’re right, all that copper in such a small unit. Was probably a great generator once.
Salut cool vidéos 👍,et bravo tournevis manuel,
Thank you, I appreciate it.
Good video thank you nice break down .
Thank you buddy!
I'm subscribed to your channel brilliant videos thanks for watching mine too
@@patrickwilliams4613 you’re welcome Patrick, I appreciate all of your support.
That’s a whole lotta coppah!
@@dr.a006 it sure was 😁
Thanks for watching!
Where I live the scrap yards won't even talk to you unless you have 1000 lbs. Don't even bring in small chunks of wire and stuff you pulled out of plugs. They'll laugh you off the property.
@@dw7094 thats not normal, most scrapyards are happy to buy your metals, no matter the amount of weight.
Awesome job brother. I am running way behind I had to have 22.5 hours of surgery in 6 days . I can't walk without a cane.
@@PhilipRomeo69 oh my goodness, what’s going on brother?
@scrapitall200 I was born with cloves syndrome. The last 8 years I have been getting real bad infections had 2 previous surgeries to try to solve the issue with no luck. So the surgeon decided to get alot more aggressive. So may 31 I had a 10 hour surgery to fix it. That surgery failed to lack of blood flow. The area started to turn black. So the surgeon came back in 5 days later and said he had to go back in for to fix it that one was surgery # 79 and it was 12 and a half hours was in the hospital for 3 weeks and in a rehab for almost a month
@@PhilipRomeo69 oh my!
I’ll be praying for you!
Thank you for sharing what you’ve been through.
That was a great video brother.
Thank you brother
@@scrapitall200you’re welcome.
I do a lot of lawn mower engine pressure washer engines my scrap yard closes heavy iron yesterday I took seven push lawn mowers and broke them down I try to wait until I get at least four or five when you start they go pretty quick once you get in a groove my scrap yard tell me if I could bring in at least 500 pounds of motors they would give me a better price So I've brought them in 2500 pounds last year I did the same thing with aluminum can told me give me four cents more per pound if I brought in over a hundred pounds i brought him 377 pounds I don't go to the scrap yard until I have it these two thousand pounds of weight I could go once a week what's 500 lb of material that $8 in gas each trip which would be $32 a month I go once a month with 2,000 lb and save 24 hours worth of gas plus wear and tear on the truck add trailer I also have a very good rapport with my scrap yard so I called them before I'm ready to come and set up a date at a time🤠
@@fraudanator2249 that’s awesome!
Definitely makes sense to bring in one huge load and get a better price rather than multiple smaller loads burning up more fuel.
Thank you for watching.
@@scrapitall200👍 🤠
Worth more to get it back running
@@michaelwillcutt2619 I respectfully disagree
I would get cast for it
@@hisandherscoins cool deal
What did you soak that engine in to get the screws out?
Nice technique on getting those dimpled screws out.
PB Blaster!
Thank you, it seems to always work.
I know how to service those small generators
Useful knowledge there brother.
🤙🤙👍 if a man had few dozen of them he make lunch money for a week 😁✌️
@@piecesofpete5921 heck yeah buddy!
Thank you for watching.
@piecesofpete5921 how much is lunch where you eat?
👏🏻😁👏🏻😁👏🏻😁👏🏻😁👏🏻😁👏🏻😁👏🏻😁👏🏻😁👏🏻😁
@@normajeancaballero7959 thank you so much.
Slotted screws suck!!
Yea they do lol
Nothing is impossible to undo with a grinder and a hammer. Lol . What part of America are you bases. I'm watching from the UK Yorkshire..when I'm struggling to pull number 2 copper out I use WD 40 on the wire.
@@iffy9776 I live in Washington state!
Yeah some good ole lubricant helps a lot.
Thank you for watching from beautiful England
sorry I'm late I was on a vc
It’s all good. Hope you had a good time.
Thank you for watching.
@@scrapitall200 I did
@@smitchlego good
Pb blaster is that like wd40?
Yes but works way better than WD-40 in my experience.
Thank you for watching
@@scrapitall200 I might try that thank u
@@Jdrf73 you’re welcome!
1st

Anti-Static Strap...
Exactly!
This was an excellent video, really enjoyed it and some nice editing as well. Always fascinating to see things disassembled and how much they can potentially be worth:)
Thank you so much, I appreciate that.
I'm sure that the welding machine has a huge transformer inside,can wait to see it.
Awesome video bro 😉👍
@@ElectronicWasteExplorers I’ve had a quick peak already and it does have a big transformer, plus the generator hub, hopefully will be copper.
Thanks for watching.
fan for life, you are my go too guy.thanks
@@Sandy-u1o that is so awesome, thank you!
