Easter Eggs, paper towel roll cores, kitchen utensils, the normal type stuff. Today, I made a dipper from "trash" - I'm just being a responsible steward of the Earth, we're supposed to recycle everything, right? wink2.gif I wish I could find an arbor press in the trash.

Old magnesium Lawnboy decks are quite hard to find as scrap. They last a very long time.

The old lawnboy decks (Mg) break up easily with a sledge hammer. Other Mg cuts easily with a sawsall or even a skill saw.
