I hardly ever scrap, but when I was walking the dogs last night, I saw that my neighbor had cleaned out his garage. I was really checking to see if he had any clean, empty five gallon buckets (  ), but he had something better:
He was throwing out copper tubing. It was rolled up neatly in two bundles, probably 30 feet of 1/2" diameter tubing.
Wonder how much it weighs?

| I bought some for around a dollar a foot for a stove gas line. Prolly is worth more as an item then as scrap. But if you don't get any takers it's always worth its copper weight! |

Don't forget coils of Cu tubing come in mighty handy to cool down and re-liquify vaporized volatile substances that you may want to remove from a watered down state.
It's easier than you'd think.
Just another Cu use if you'd be so inclined ;)
