Subject: Re: ShopTalk: What's up?
knowing that a steel shaft is a recyclable metal, whether deemed
to be steel or stainless, I'm have a hissy-fit if some builder wanted to
charge me while they are not incurring any costs, and in fact are making
recycling $.

I'm trying to do some early spring cleaning, and took a
bunch of steel shaft pull outs to the recycler.
One local guy pays $00.03 lb for steel and $00.43 lb for
stainless steel. He told me because a magnet stuck to it that it wasn't
stainless and only wanted to give me the $00.03.
Well, I don't know if their stainless or not, but I know
a magnet will stick to most stainless, the exception being if it has a
very high nickel content. My Vector 17-7 irons have 7% nickel which is
high and a magnet sure sticks to them.
Another local guy pays $00.20 for stainless and he took
it as stainless just by looking at it, he didn't whip out his pocket
magnet.
So I got $52.00 for 260lbs of steel pull outs so that's
about a nickel a piece.
When we do a re shaft we charge $10.00 for the pull and
prep, and $9.00 for std assembly or $19.00 for spine and flo.
I wonder if the market would bare a "shaft disposal fee"
Don't they do that with tires?
