Matt, we get .04 a pound here for scrap, and .07 for auto's, but in Fl, they are getting .21 for #2 steel and somewhere around .30 for #1...

Madness...
I looked on my paperwork and our price right now is 220 per ton. That was sheet iron. About a month ago it was over 245 per ton. Anytime I go I haul it in a large load. Last time I went I had 4 ton on the trailer. Been going alot lately because dad and I have been cleaning up around his property and from tearing down my grandmas old house.

Now that's humor...

Dang, I let a guy borrow my trailer, and he shredded a tire and dropped a strap... good thing I know he's gonna make it right... That's what I get for helping someone out. Happens every time.

Nice guys finish...

Evening all

Just watching day 9 of the Calgary Stampede. Just finished watching 9 heats of chuck wagon races. 4 teams in each heat. Man those guys sure can move with 4 thoroughbred horses pulling a little wagon around. Tomorrow afternoon 12 teams race for 100,000$ top prize.

Put my lawn tractors tranny back together today. Works like a charm. Had to get a new drive belt. Still need a set of disc brake pads. No brakes right now so don't want to take it on the hills. No runaway lanes out here. Hahaha

Later...
