I’m not spending hours searching and transporting and scrapping for $40 worth of silver for one week 😂😂😂
Comment from : JayRamz

Just getting started in this Thank you for the information!

Not pure silver mixed with cadmium poison if you try to melt not worth much if you can find anyone to buy it
Comment from : Jim Bauer

I never realized silver was in electronics
Comment from : Mikal Dene

I know most stuff is gold plated or silver plated but are those pure silver dots?
Comment from : Jonathan Kuntz

You don't have to melt them to get money
Comment from : Tina Mitchell

Just bring it to the scrap yard for cash
Comment from : Tina Mitchell

The amount of those contacts etc I've thrown away when collecting copper since I was a kid I'd probably have 2 kilo of silver 😂😂
Comment from : Darren Swan

I really enjoyed how you explained and showed all the same time quick and easy Definitely stepped my Scrap level up thank you
Comment from : Shanna Allen

Lots of work for 50$ worth of silver I’m willing to bet a real job pays far better for time spent

good🎉🎉
Comment from : steven liu

It's not about the price of silver it's about supply and demand! The corpoate banks are stock piling it because it has more value than golg Just saying
Comment from : Truly Lynn

You need to be careful with that lithium If that stuff hits water it ignites and can explode
Comment from : Randy OQuinn

Sadly, if you count your time you have to put in there most of it is hardly worth it
Comment from : Jack McLane

Sell the switches make more money this is the biggest waste unless the parts are broken
Comment from : Vintage Moments

Buy your own hot beverage with the tons of cash you must be earning each day Better, buy all commenters and subscribers something cuz your trash is a waste of moneytrue
Comment from : Lawrence

I'm a little surprised that you didn't mention crystal oscillators Most circuit boards have them and they generally have silver pins
Comment from : Bentley Alder

This is a waste of time watching this and more of a waste of time If you think you’re going to get anything out of those little tiny pieces of silver, it’ll take you months to save up an ounce in breaking hours of your time, breaking things tearing things apart to get to it It’s the most ridiculous thing almost as ridiculous as superman looks Anyway, even negative comments, help the algorithm
Comment from : Ron Edwards

It blows me away how much precious resources are in white goods and computers yet our society is a disposable society and everything is made to break and be replaceable iPhones don’t even support products older than the last generation

Comment from : PROJECT LONEWOLF

Damn the things I’ve thrown away cuz I just got aggravated!🤦‍♀️so mad at me! Thank you for the video!
Comment from : April

Those of you thinking about refining, PLEASE BE CAREFUL AND GET THE PROPER GEAR You can seriously injure yourself with toxic fumes, etc For example, mercury is incredibly toxic Get the proper masks, gloves, aeration of your work area, etcbrLearn before you burn!brBTW, some coin dealers are predicting a large increase in gold & silver prices, especially silver, as soon as the new monetary system is installed, starting in July
Comment from : Hildy

Only complaint is the back and forth in the video Made me dizzy - hard to focus on little parts Would be so much better if you were behind the table and able to hold items up to camera
Comment from : Terry Tomasiewicz

Second time I watched, I always learn something from your vids 😎😎🔥🔥⛏⛏
Comment from : Chuck Gentles

I thought those were called relays
Comment from : Robert McKelvey

Interesting video but seems like a low return of investment for the amount of work - acquiring the circuit boards, extracting, etc Its amazing to think about what we are throwing away
Comment from : Mark P

Isn't saving valuables from being scrapped actually UNscrapping? Great vid! Very industrious! If you don't need all the cash Immediately I suggest JUST STORE THE METAL Much much like silver mines such as First Majestic hold back a percentage of production
Comment from : Jeff Bryan

at only $24 per ounze, it's a waste of time Probably cost you more to obtain it than it's worth
Comment from : Adrien de Croy

It's been two years now, have you gotten rid of that silly top knot yet? true friends would tell ya it looks gay
Comment from : WOLFMAN TROY

Those contacts in the circuit board relay boxes are silver coated with copper cores it's not a pure piece of silver
Comment from : jeff cantley

They're not contact boxes, they're relays and switches
Comment from : CR3W1SH03S

Are you sure those contacts are pure silver, or are they simply silver coated? Hardly seems worthwhile if they're just coated
Comment from : Mister E

Great video, well explained, and great teaching Thank you I subscribed ⚘️
Comment from : Zephaniah 1v3

Somehow the return isn't going to be worth your timebrTo small Go grab some old motors and rip the copper out of that brOr extract the gold from computer boardsbrMost of that will not be pure silver dude
Comment from : Grnfinger

I've got to call you out on it you're a liar or you just don't think your time is worth anything😮
Comment from : John Aberm

Thank you so much for discouraging me from scrapping TVs😅 Here I been picking them up everytime I found one

Comment from : gary garrison

As a maker who recovers electronic components and switches to reuse in electronics projects this hurt so much to watch🥺
Comment from : DigiLab360

If you factor in your time and materials cost, there is no profit in silver on this small scale
Comment from : Joshua Snyder

Hi Tin Man You must be an electronics technician and you know how to fix electronics equipment at a component level Am I correct ?
Comment from : rangiroa100

awesome infothanks my brother
Comment from : RHYGAR

Sweet
Comment from : Freedom Fighter

Great video thank you man me and my son been working the gold plating off of everything going well but always need to be careful safety first working with a lot of chemicals thanks once again I subscribed to your channel I'm sure I'll find it very interesting thanks once again and be safe
Comment from : Larry Simmons

Well now I’m gonna hang out at the dump all weekend
Comment from : Barry Marootner

Relays
Comment from : Wanduh Macksimoff

I would say this is for most people a waste of times No ones has this much free time Side hobby sure if you got the space
Comment from : Eric

need to see removal of the silver contact dots and how to process them to get pure silver
Comment from : Theyrek Rnations

Interesting Where do you sell the silver? Where do you get the scrapped electronics?
Comment from : Anon Ymous

too bad silver is worthless
Comment from : mark vietti

Why wouldn’t you save parts for their replacement value? No Radio Shacks anymore
Comment from : YooTooobJeff

They are not 'contact boxes' they are RELAYS
Comment from : Stephen Walters

Hi Tin Man Scrapper! Very informative! I just subscribed to your channel! 😎
Comment from : Legacy $tacker

Is the silver 999 in these componts?
Comment from : Amos Pena

@0:09 silver is currently about 075 USD/gram (750 USD/kg) or about 2400 USD/ounce brfor comparison copper is currently about 825 USD/kg or about 023 USD/ouncebryou could weigh one of the small contacts it might weigh about 1 gram, although it would have impurities brbesides environmental conservation, economics, including investing one's time, matter too
Comment from : thomas

At the price of silver about 10 $ an ounce, how much work and time 15 to 20 breakers for half an ouncesoif you save it for a year you might get a hundred dollars
Comment from : B d

Try vinegar as a substitute for nitric acid
Comment from : James Byron

The real test is when everything is said and done, all chemicals etc disposed of legally, how much do you make? Silver wouldn;t be a high profit margin when gold might yield an actual $10 an hour for all the time nd cost

Comment from : Barry Bueler

Wonder woman and Superman are comic book hero's, and what has Wonder women got to do with it You don't see women wearing her costume Wearing that t-shirt are you making a statement LOL
Comment from : KorkytheKat

Where you getting all those 'free' electronics?
Comment from : Mikey L

Computer keyboards have silver contacts, too, much like behind the microwave control panels

Too much work for near no money
Comment from : Honu Moorea

Good info thanks for sharing😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥
Comment from : Chuck Gentles

Although some of these seem to be way bigger business on the still usable component level the Chinese make big money of selling scavenged everythings as new I'm not saying that it is a model to follow, but there is a middle way
Comment from : K Gergő

Now, I have to run to the bathroom and take a massive crap
Comment from : Mega Therion

I love those little boxes Lots of copper and now I'll be saving the silver dots too Thanks
Comment from : Americas Favorite Hoarder

Electronics recycling is about as dirty as an industry can possibly get That's why this doesn't get scaled up in any reasonable way beyond basement hobbyists because the EPA would swoop in to shut them down for being too dirty to be allowed in a first world country
Comment from : Jeff Borders

hmm, as A tech, it appears to me that you are working for 1 cent per hour or less!
Comment from : Darren Smith

And after all that work, you get Seven Dollars! Woo Hoo!
Comment from : LordCeeJay

So I’m wondering about time value If you had to put an approximate silver value in the one black contact you opened what would it be?
Comment from : Robert Sipes

It is not worth your time Not worth the cost of your time
Comment from : Brendan Quinn

I scrap while I watch ball games
Comment from : Robert Galorath

it's free?! Are you kidding?
Comment from : Ciprian Popa

Most of the "silver" you are referring to here is just silver plate, and a very thin plate at that Same with gold plate/ fingers Silver, unlike gold, platinum, rhodium etc tarnishes easily and is not a good choice for contactsbrbrBY FAR, the most silver in electronic scrap is in the solder Older solder was tin/lead Now much has been replaced with tin/silver (3-5) to comply with RoHS by removing hazardous materials like lead, mecury and cadmium
Comment from : 95rav

Umma lithium battery doesn't contain lead If you expose lithium to air it will combust, be careful
Comment from : Ramson Cole

Costs more to refine it than you could get out of it
Comment from : The Sniper Viper

I here Target is hiring cart boys😉
Comment from : Jim Beekman

about 20 years ago a friend of a friend told me he goes to the estate sales, auctions in Vancouver BC Canada and buys up everyone's old sterling Silver sets, melts it down and refines it into 999 silver bars Heard he makes about a 1million per year including the parts it takes to refine the lower grade silver into the 999 bars of Silver over twenty years ago
Comment from : Video cruzer

Get a decent job, you might earn 10 time in one hour
Comment from : Peter Nekeresd

remember once brought scrap CRT computer display to the "nonprofit environment-protecting" recycling center, but before that I removed the electronics only the tube remained The guy tehere said me angrily that never again to bring scrap without the electronics, without further explanation CRTs, as you know contain only lead, barium and other heavy metals and glass, essentially worthless So much for "environment protection" and not for profit! 😀

Come on people!! Get real, learn a trade or something that has some kind of future This ain't it

Thank you - very informative!

And this kids is why you don't do drugs You will most certainly end up taking apart your microwave for a $2 hit😂
Comment from : Michael Blankenship

Silver solder is used in a large portion of modern electronics instead of lead

Get a real fcking job Scrapping is for losers that dont have any life skills
Comment from : T Chris

I'm new to this, and he didn't show how to get the dots of Silver off the brass arms they're soldered to with Silver Solder, can anyone tell me how to get these pieces of silver off? TYVM in Advance!!!
