| RoGeorge:
I always enjoy bringing home salvaged electronics, taking them apart, sometimes reverse engineer, other times repurpose, or just store them in a junk box for spare parts. Though, with time this might make your lab looks like a combination between a tech museum and a hoarder's den. ;D |

My old office park shared a dumpster with a medical diagnostics/testing company. The dumpster was routinely full of used urine sample containers. 1 out of 10. Would not dive. |
| Willy_Tepes:
I also collected stuff from the electronics dumpster when I had a garage, but sadly I no longer have room. It is a great way to learn electronics (see what others have done). The entire concept of stealing trash is stupid. You PAY to get trash removed. I can only conclude that people who utter such accusations are just jealous because you are getting something for free, even though they probably are financially much better off than someone who is rummaging through a dumpster. I have a hard time understanding my fellow man as most of them seem downright evil and petty at times. Being a generous guy, I put it down to low intelligence. |
