I hope so, I've got an accumulation that should have been sold the last time it was high. I might as well sell and spend it instead of someone else. I won't be here fore the the next cycle up, lol.

Just got most of mine brought it, farm looks much better without all the old trucks/equipment. Feels liberating to finally get rid of all my valuable "projects"

I think that maybe a couple steel mills in Pennsylvania are still in operation. I will admit I don't know for sure though.

Beaver Co Pa is ready with the cracker plant, gas lines done.
Many times fuel, fur, and scrap fluctuate together but who knows.

What I could really use is a pulp wood buyer for these dang pine trees.
White Marlin any market there?

So, you're saying that most of my possessions are finally worth something?

Wright Brothers, there's a pulpwood mill in Luke, Maryland that the loggers from our farm took timber to. Forest Byproducts in Dayton,VA pays decent money for pine logs too.

I have kitchen appliances scheduled for delivery next month. They wanted to charge $25 to haul away each appliance. I told them nope I'd rather recycle them and get paid.

Bare bight copper was $4.10 a pound last time I sold, I really don’t know steel price is . But I know conduit has shot out of the roof 3/4 emt is $135.00 a hundred foot Construction Is fixing to shut down nobody can afford to build anything new . We was doing 1 million square foot warehouse for around 4 million just a basic shell now it is running almost 12 million now and that isn’t with the recent increase of prices . Right now our quotes are only good for 10 days and the supply house are only Honoree a quote on copper for 24 hours.
