I wouldn’t take one even if if was free

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I would, you get $1.25per kilo of stainless steel and $3.15 for aluminium at the local scrap metal merchant

Take the battery out and use it for home storage.

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Sure. Same. I could just throw a tarp over it on my way to the scrap yard, to protect my reputation.

Brave to assume it would make that distance drive, better hope there's no slight incline as that would invalidate the warranty

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The fact that they'd throw a tarp on it implies they are towing it so no need to keep track of functionality.

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 1 points 17 hours ago

Exactly the plan!

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 2 points 17 hours ago

Not brave at all. I assume I would need to tow it, haha!

You'd drive it? Safer to rent a flatbed.
