Default Scrap value of copper?


"Lobster" wrote in message
...
What is the approx scrap value (per metre) of 15mm copper tube? (in
non-industrial quantities?)

I'm just wondering in terms of whether it's worth keeping those

little
offcuts of tube from a job rather than just binning them, and/or

whether
its worthwhile ever lugging out redundant tubing from previous
installations while the floorboards are up...!

Well if a genuine copper penny* is worth marginally more than it's
face value think of your scrap in pennyweight terms.

* later pennies are infact heavy copper plated steel and can be picked
up with a magnet.
