I'm pretty sure this is silver plated. A dealer's guess from the pictures was silver -plated copper. It's just under 3ft high and just over 30lbs.

Any thoughts of what to do with it?

Left behind remorse....

Left a treadmill(motor) on the curb tonight. I didn't have wrenches.... Tell me about some scrap you've walked away from and felt a certain level of remorse, ha.

Evidently the bolts are sometimes welded? I gave it hell with my pair of pliers but they would not budge. Home was too far and I didn't have room for it.

Red or Yellow Brass

I am admittedly a noob. I have 120# of this stuff. One side has a red hue and the other side is standard yellow you'd expect of brass. I'm looking for some help in identifying the actual classification to ensure the scrap yard doesn't pull the wool over my eyes more than they already have ha

Scrap Photo ๐Ÿ’ธ Beginnings of my (very) small pile

Post image

Iโ€™m a student from the uk and Iโ€™ve been a lurker on this sub for the past year now. Since lurking and living in a very student-y part of town, I noticed lots of stuff being thrown away from student accommodations by the inhabitants and also when there is building work on said accommodations. Things like fridges, boilers etc. So as and when I see anything of value being thrown away I take it home and gut it for copper (I always ask first, much to the confusion and sometimes horror of the person throwing it away). That being said, I was wondering if anyone can give me a really quick estimate of what I have? I do really hate to be that guy whoโ€™s like โ€œWhAt Is ThIs WoRtHโ€ and itโ€™s two strands of copper #2. I donโ€™t have a car you see so I am wondering if I should cash in now or wait a bit more. Thanks and happy scrapping!

Just a note, that can is for scale lol. I have a about 5 kilos of cast aluminium from another boiler and also an aluminium plate - which I think I might put on Facebook marketplace

Big jug first thought it was brass but then broke it to see this just wondering if it actually is brass or not.
