...and with my JL10W7 audio system my Yaris weighed only 2540lbs according to the digital scale.

I did make $3.20 selling mostly crushed soup cans and scrap metal from printer parts.

Does anyone else specialize as a "scrap metal artist" as a hobby?

I will save separate any bad printer parts I dont have to send back and also used to save and sell tiny little circuit boards and random laptop parts from my other job and sell them to some e-scrap company online. I also save, crush and sell soda cans.

If Im walking through some parking lot for work, I will pick up crush or empty soda and beer cans and throw them in one of my boxes.

Its all for fun and it feels weird in a good way to make money from what is basically trash to most people. I make maybe $20.00 per year, its a hobby.

One time I was surfing the FREE section of my local CL and a BabysRUS had put out almost 900lbs of steel peg hooks and said take one or take them all, so I took them all and made almost $50 from that.:headbang:

Cool, good for you, making a little money and keeping your area clean.
I to am a recycler, not to your extent, but I do recycle everything possible at home.
