In this video I show how to scrap a microwave.
I go step by step, breaking down how much money in scrap each piece is worth and how much scrapping a microwave will make you scrapping every part versus just selling it as shred steel.
Here are the links to the videos I mentioned.
• Synchronous copper mot...
• Scrapping Magnetron - ...
• Easy Copper Removal
• Scrapping Transformers...

I have taken ( many , many ) of these to pieces ..... often the value of a WORKING part greatly exceeds the metal scrap value ! ! ... so .... the magnets are useful stuck to your fridge / cooker to store utensils , and placed into a plastic spray can top , screwed onto the end of a broom pole , can be used to pick up nails / screws in the workshop ! ... the electronic parts are MORE VALUABLE to reuse if left WORKING ! the transformer is MUCH more valuable , working , as you might make a ( dirt cheap ! ) spot welder ( see videos ) , the turntable synchronous motor makes a good Santa rotator for your Christmas tree , and the EHT diode makes a good Zener diode ( ? ) .. even the plastic feet can be reused ! ... of course the steel case is total scrap , but you will get MUCH more value ( reusing / reselling some parts ? ) ....

I am scrapping my first microwave. I have not removed capacitor or transformer, yet, from shell. I am very nervous abot the beryllium. Any advice on that?
@scrapitall200
@scrapitall200 3 місяці тому
Hi. Thank you for watching. I would leave the capacitor in unless your scrap yard will give you a better price than shred for them. I’ve done quite a bit of research and manufacturers haven’t used beryllium in microwaves for a very long time, too expensive. Now they use a mixture of chromium and aluminum oxide. What I do just to be safe just in the off chance it is beryllium, I wrap it with tape. Beryllium is only dangerous if it’s inhaled into our lungs, so as long as it’s not broken into fine particles that can be inhaled, it’s safe to handle. Now I’m not saying my research is definitive truth, but I feel confident. You could take the magnetron to your scrap yard and ask them what they’d pay for it as is. Hope this was helpful to you.

I just leave them in the microwave. I don’t scrap them since my yard and most yards will only pay shred steel price for them. I’ve heard that some yards will pay dirty aluminum price for them, but you’d have to check with your yard. Thank you for watching.

@@scrapitall200 There is also beryllium oxide in the ceramic insulators of most magnetrons. If the insulator cracks or is broken, that dust is highly toxic if inhaled. If you want a nice magnet, there are safer ways to get one. Leave the magnetrons alone. 🙂

You are doubling the price of the secondary winding to demonstrate the price for both windings being copper. This is not true. The secondary weighs more than the primary when they are both copper. You would not get $6.96. You would get less than that if they are both copper.
