Keep in mind that Iggy likely is getting somehing like $0.10/pound for
steel. Typical rail is on the order of 40 lbs./ft., or a little less.

Margins are slim. You have to move a lot of steel at very low overhead
to make any money.

Rail, if it's at all clean could probably be one of those things ig
could chop up into 6" or shorter chunks and sell for the big bucks on
eBay as the shop/bench anvil, etc., ...

At least that was my supposition of the intent as given the described
locale and bother hardly seems worth the effort for just scrap prices.


The way to make it worth the effort is to avoid wasting time and avoid
renting anything expensive.
