Both the legal scrap yards here need a picture I.D and your SSN before they'll buy your stuff. If you sell them enough scrap to go over a threshold amount they report what they have paid you to the IRS and the comrades in Madison so they can be sure to collect their taxes. Maybe we're going about this wrong if you find out what scrap yard the stuff ended up in AND can ID the seller turn them into the IRS, the Sheriff will be the least of their problems at that point. Trafficking in stolen goods is still a crime if you can locate the stuff in a scrap yard turn the scrap yard in AND sue them for damages, they'll end up making it right with you and sing like a bird on their "vendors" or you end up owning a scrap yard- cool eh? One of our local HVAC/refrigerator repair services had some aluminum condensers stolen from their shop, the owner of the HVAC firm didn't know they were gone until he saw them at the scrap yard when he was dropping some other stuff off. The scrap yard was more than cooperative in fingering the thief and willingly assisted the D.A. with the prosecution. There are still a few Mom & Pop scrap dealers out their that may be a little shy on ethics and by design or ignorance don't have the best record keeping but with the environmental regulations and IRS attention a lot of them are run by business men with to much money invested to traffic in stolen goods or not have adequate records that'll stand up to IRS scrutiny. I guess their might be some good from the nanny state.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
