    Default Chopping up my old Tower

    I got the replacement tower in. Has anyone ever tried to recycle a tower? Is it worth anything as scrap metal?

    Aluminum isn't copper, but it's worth something, I'd guess that tower would fetch about a cheap 12 pack......

    Why chop it up? You can't take it off and sell it?

    It'll get some scrap value Chad, not much, scrap value of aluminum is currently running at like $1.20/lb. May be able to get a decent 12 pack! Whatever you do though, just don't sell it, don't want that ole' beater on the market, haha! Did you get a chance to finish the install or have you been dealing with the rough weather like we have?

    Hey Cody.

    Yea no problem. Won't sell it. Don't want to cause any headaches for ya.

    Haven't finished the install yet. Kinda hard to do during the week. Need too many hands to put it up on the boat. All the wiring for the speakers are done though. Picked up some greese for the bolts. Just waiting on Saturday.

    Would look good on the wifey's new truck. Probably won't fit on my car though. I'm sure we could figure out a way though.
