i Have been a secret swarf hoarder for years...My method is to fill my pockets full of the stuff and channel it down my trouser leg via a strategically placed tube that leads to an underground container in the cellar.

I keep on thinking, that the kilos of swarf we've collected over the years hold some form of value. But I have never yet found an opportunity to sell the swarf
Genius =D>

 

You got me thinking now :-k :idea: I could collect all of the leather dust from my finisher , combine it with some superglue (HUGH Method) and make some leather belts to sell =D> loads of £££££££££££££££

 

Tell me Dean do you seperate your swarf in piles of brass and steel ?

That sounds like a really cool idea Gavin! I'll bear it in mind for future reference!! :D

 

In response to your Swarf query, I once came into possession of a special magnetized glove, handed-down (excuse the pun) to me by my late, Great-Grandfather.

 

I use this as my prime method for distributing the steel from the brass.

 

I Hope this helps.

 

For any other General Swarf Queries I strongly recommend "How I Made Mega Money" by S.Teale

i used to think it would keep rats away from my cables so i left mine on the floor the rats never eat my cables, so maybe you should phone rentokill and ask them if they say they are interested ill send you mine in the post and you can earn all the money out of it

I used to have a customer in one of my shops who had daughters with asmatic problems. A doctor told her that placing copper filings on the garage roof outside their bedroom window, would help kill of the moss growing there. :?

 

It worked \:D/ she used to come in once a month and collect all the swarf i had and sprinkle on her garage roof! :D
