Is it possible to depopulate those with a hot plate? An IT guy is going to give me some motherboards if I give him the capacitors and transistors off of them is why I ask.

Not even 2 mins in, you might be answering my question regarding the hot plate... I guess I'll find out!

Ewaste Ben get a warehouse and hire a slave already 🎉u cripping all of Australia p.s. did a gold platinum and silver Investment on your investment video recommendation I try for palladium if I can. Premium was not calculated due to excitement. Of course my 3 investment go down and your palladium recommendation goes up the 1 I missed until later.

Hi Ben. Good morning. You ARE the World PROFESSOR of EWaste. Thank you for all your teaching. Have a wonderful day. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎

Just came in from depopulating power boards for 12 hours straight and then watch Ben doing the same for 2 hours. That's dedication 😁👍

These type of videos are by far my favorites!!😊

Look your waffling is very informative people learn from you constantly thank you for sharing this six stars brother

Hello! Been waiting for another depopulating video for awhile!!! Appreciate your knowledge Ben! I learned SO much from you! Thank you!

I’m glad you’ve evolved from mass depopulating and sorting crumble to selective picking and sorting. Which also helps the rest of us too! Thanks.

Great informational video. Thanks for what you do.

Wooohooo a marathon I love these videos

Great Video Ben Keep Bringing The Video's Dude God Bless You And Your Family 🙏👍👍

Another great video ben😊

Great video Ben i watch ur whole videos while i strip wires.....great stuff

great video as always

Ben i found your video VERY educating thank you

Very interesting,thank you.

Love it, you should keep some of the chips, some of them can be worth a little bit.

U use ran a soldering iron along to remove the gold fingers.

Make your videos as long as you want to. It IS YOUR SHOW. 😃

love it

"you're ripping off board buyers!" - I love it when people on the internet tell you how to run your business 🤣

great info as always sir, unfortunately no real board buyers here in ireland and as i am a micro scrapper and do it as a hobbie all my boards get stripped lol plus its always nice to get some gold that you made yourself even if it cost more to get than it's worth sometimes. hope all is good with you and really enjoyed

The Royal Mint is starting up a plant to extract precious metals from ewaste. Would be worth giving them a buzz..

Hi Ben, regarding the trimmed gold fingers, get to know a contact in a PCB factory & ask to get a sample of the gold checked out using there XRF machine, takes about 20 seconds to measure the gold tab thickness on one of these - I use a Fischer XDAL daily at work, good bit of kit but very expensive. readings in gold thickness ( microns) can be printed in a summarized report to show any future customers wanting to buy your scrap gold 🙂🙂👍👍

The axial silver tube shaped tantalum capacitors will have no indentation around the positive end of the body, while silver axial electrolytics will have an indentation next to the positive end.

Hell yea! Between watching you and Sreetips, I am trying to collect EWaste in America! Can you do one round of recovering some precious metals please? I'd like to see how you would do it.

One of the yards I use takes circuitboards and pays flat rate ,doesnt matter if it's a board from a TV remote or a telecom board. Last time it was at 5 swedish krona /kg. Of course I take off stuff,,even aluminium as it pays more.

Mantap Ben i like reqovery gold

This treatise substantiates what I had since figured. It is a consideration of board value as against what bits to pluck off and retain and what is to be left on the boards. Pluck off this or that and still retain board value or sacrifice board value for stuff on it that you want. Judgement calls with every board being so processed. Not that I myself could tell a flat pack from a BGL, or telecom grade from motherboard, but that is what it is with this. How in blazes is one person going to process half a garage of mixed boards ? Someone help the poor guy ? No, not really. One gets to rockin' and rollin' on it, knowing better than anyone else what the brief exactly is.

Put a couple vertical pins drilled into your table, or build a fence that you hammer the circuit boards into while removing chips. Guaranteed quicker removal.

You can't tell If there's gold inside a chip by breaking it. Gold bond wires you can't see because they so thin in a chip like that. What you've been looking for is gold plating inside which is only a fraction of the gold there. Without the plating there's still likely the bond wires. In a board like them your 99% likely have gold bond wires

That Z80 CPU is definitely collectable.

That's crazy.

Build a tumbler with used carbide inserts, then a float tank, then reap the rewards

Depends on prices you have locally for pcb. E.g. post-2000 mb pcbs are about 1.50 usd per kilo here. So no point in selling it. At the same time we have 1.20 USD for motherboards with removed flatpacks. Kind if quest, sort, evaluate, depopulate

I wonder if you could use a hotplate or heated sand to depopulate those boards. Heat em up and just pluck the stuff off.

Use a paper shear for gold fingers. Ingento maple wood paper shear is one of the better ones.

I want to see that you turn and start making gold bars out of your pyramide stock saved haha

flatpacks with radiators are just twice less than regular. 5gram/kilo in the caps compared to 8-12 gr/kg for 'regular' black top flatpacks.

ben have you given any thought to collecting the solder (i use a putty knife) left behind on the boards after you remove bgas? with the amount of boards you go through you would fill up a jar up rather quickly. i started a jar about a week ago that already has 200 grams in it, altho theres a few tiny mlcc's in it too that also came off the boards while tapping the putty knife. but thats ok, they might have silver solder on them too. its not pure silver but it wouldnt cost much to recover it, acid wise. btw magnetic mlcc's can have palladium and platinum too, its just in much lower amounts.

Cody'slab actually did a video on refining silver solder. He came to the conclusion that the materials are more expensive then the reward. The silver solder usually only has enough silver in it to say there is silver in it basically

Can they also use a lower karat? I don't get much ewaste(especially computer stuff) but I have noticed some fingers have a very weak yellow.

👍

As time has gone on then boards have become cheaper and more cheaply made, now in UK I can sell high grade boards, but the buyers only want large quantities like 100kg which takes a long time to build up as a general scrapper. The rest I just take what I can like copper and aluminium, then they go into shred.

I was at the local scrap yar in south sweden. They had tons o disposed electronics. But the workers would not let me scavenge and they even denied me a job. What a shame...

let us hear about the positive comments..

Thanks man 😊 showing what can be done ✅ if you give a shit 😊

a big paper cutter would cut them perfect.

I can't find anybody be to buy them in Glasgow (UK). I just take what I can off them and put the remains in with light steel

Tell people how to reuse the boards 😊

Hi, I need comment on this one, we are still getting e-wast 😢

Dude's sarcasm is higher than Panzers boards...

why sell your boards, EVERY PERSON IN THE ENTIRE PROCESS IS GOING TO MAKE MONEY, AND IF THEY HAVE EVEN 1 EMPLOYEE, THEY HAVE TO PAY THAT EMPLOYEE A WAGE TOO! IM SAVING EVERYTHING I CAN GET MY HANDS ON TO PROCESS FOR EVERY METAL THAT IT WILL CONTAIN!!!

Seems like such a waste of time for what else you could be soinf

Dos anyone no where I could sell my boreds in England
