It is a good subject and has been brought up here and there. Like I told the wife do what you want with it, it will not matter to me.
I said that is also my life insurance policy, so the more you can sell the better off for you. Just like the $50K of tools in the garage, sell it for ever you want or give it to the kids. What will I care.
As for as the scrap yard, kind of funny the other day I took a couple of 5 gallon buckets of copper scraps (little bitty pieces and the bucket was over filled) along with a couple of prototype play around did not work out sculptures, and the guy was looking at one piece and trying to decide what bin to put it end (copper and brazed). He says "I know I will put it in the art bin." Looked over and here was this big bin with a bunch of different brass and copper art work in it. One piece I recognized the artist and asked about it, said some drunk brought it in. Also had some big brass type sculptures of animals that looked like from India. Anyhow I was really surprised how much they had there. The guy was telling me that the owner sorts thru it and if anything interesting will take it to swap meets.
