i sell it. currently around 10 cents a lb for scrap mixed, here. aluminum and copper scrap brings quite a bit more. my last load was over $100. gas money. coffee. butterenegg. whatever...
Yup I was thinking of that if the scrap guy is still there. I got a bunch of aluminum window and door parts, and copper pipes around the house that would make one good trip.
Where am I going to dump all this scrap metal? I’m up to my with rusted Mopar rims. Saving the hubs and rings the rest goes wherever

If I wrote for a living, I would delete words like those (and pubic) from my dictionary so they always get flagged. But I'm sure they're all working with a cloud dictionary or something.
That's not a bad idea. Sometimes a word-processing program like Word or something will flag incorrect words or grammar but that just seem to be one of the more common ones - more common than "lightening" instead of "lightning".
In the past week or so I've read several different articles and tutorials where the authors had meant to use the word "lose" and spelled it "loose", and I don't mean Facebook or Instagram posts. Odd, I guess spell-check wouldn't flag it.

I'll never buy a gas-powered small engine tool again. Had our Ego mower for I think this is year 3 and ran out of battery one time when the teenager didn't put the battery in the charger. Took the battery out of the weed eater and was able to finish. Can mow and listen to ballgames on the headphones without noise cancelling or talk to people without stopping.
The carburetor thing though is 100% correct. Plus my shoulder is destroyed and pulling a mower cord was the last straw before getting a cortisone shot.
I think Iâm leaning that way when the gas one can no longer start. I finally found a can of engine starter fluid @ Wally World. Beats me spilling gas in the carb to get it going.

Yup Seafoam works fantastic. I would have never though about using it in a small engine. Nice tip.
A buddy of mine is doing an internal carbon clean of his pistons on his 83â Vette. Heâs been doing a mixture of that and then acetone with ACDelco top engine cleaner. Did so many treatments since October of last year and the tops look like new. If you can afford to let it sit it will do a nice job.

I think we're on year four with ours; still works great.
Because battery powered ones mostly suck. And I donât have $600 to spend on a decent one that doesnât mow for more than 40 minutes.
Looked into them this season cause Iâm tired of repairing the carburetor bi-seasonally.
