I find myself in possesion of a solder pot from a production machine that was sent to scrap. The scrap man was uninterested in the 2 ton pot. Does this thing have value ?? Or am I stuck with a hunk of Hasmat ???

I heard if you use a potato, it will significantly reduce your scrap metal costs. o.O

Ask your PCB suppliers what they do with their scrap FR4. Especially if any are local to you. I predict that you will not be happy with their answer.

Where I was before, someone started keeping the scraps because he wasn't sure where to put them. Then everyone did and it built up. We had a couple local PCB suppliers and asked what they did. Landfill. I think FR4 with masking isn't amenable to

We save some pieces to make fixtures, but most of our FR4 scrap goes to trash. We of course recycle all of the aluminum PCBs.

We send out with our e-scrap. I know there is no "value" in it and we're probably losing on some $ return but at least it stays out of landfill.

See if there are any board shops near you. One might provide scraps in exchange for name dropping.
