Buried within them is metal.
Because metal pieces can sometimes be sharp, its best to have a pair of cut-resistant gloves.
You may find a dust mask, steel-toed boots, or a back brace to be useful.
The scrapping workshop
Its best to keep your work area clean and free of clutter.
Small pieces of metal and plastic can easily become mixed in a cluttered workspace.
Your workspace should have good ventilation, good lighting, and comfortable seating.
Identifying metals
The most common metals encountered in scrapping include copper, aluminum, stainless steel, and iron.
Copper is generally a dark gold color, although some aluminum may be painted with a copper color.
Scrappers may also encounter brass and even gold in their scrapping adventures!
when you’ve got your scrap metal, you might plan your first trip to the local scrapyard.
Always bring a small toolkit and your safety gear to the yard with you!
Metal scrappers serve a valuable purpose in modern society.
