save the wire i have save all of the different gauges of wire (even the transformer wires-made SW radio coils) to replace with old wire in radios very durablebrtorroid coils- radio projectsbrworm motors- 3d printer motorsbrhappy salvaging!

It depends what you're into but printers can be a good source of motors, motor controllers and stainless steel guide rods I've always stripped my old electronics for components prior to discarding them unless i find someone to give them to or sell on

1:04 Is that black chip on the pcb usable for anything?
Comment from : @tankfire20

Lots of copper 2 stick of ram and I am shore I can find some more bits and pieces

I use a heat gun to remove the mosfets

0:32 oh god the ram 😂

how would you reuse the motor from the dvd reader?

Protip: Make a DIY capacitor discharge tool by soldering two wires or aligator clips to the leads of a 5W, 1kΩ cement resistor and you'll be able to discharge any capacitor you come across Don't forget the heatshrink

Driver and acme rod yes would love to make a nano CNC lathe and milling machine What do you think?

V v interested in the worm gear motor video, pleaase make one!!

DVD and power supply enclosures can be used as project boxes, in addition to the top and side aluminium panels of the case Lots of different colored wires in the power supply are always useful and easy to cut off, chunky 2w resistors and odd value Zener diodes at the power supply board can be handy, and I always save the special insulating screws that attach the components to the heatsinks

I have a big box full of parts I've salvaged from dead PCs but I've never gone as far as pulling things apart to save internal components Frankly, I wouldn't know what they were good for a week later Case fans and optical drives, especially the slim type, have really come in handy
Comment from : @bryans8656

Haha, I did all that you said at the start of the video every thing but never salvaged anything here to see what's up " :)

The small lineal motor is actualy usual stepper motor
Comment from : @simonlenhard1712

I flip the boards over and use a heat gun to de-solder the parts as it heats them less

I scrapped a sattellite decoder recently and got a 2TB hard drive, a power supply and a fan which i use for soldering extraction now Score

What about all the copper?
Comment from : @_Amilio_

If you have an office prebuilt power supply, and it has enough wattage for a higher gpu, they make a Sata Power to PCIE 8-pin adapter It's a way to save money, and you wont have to purchase a whole other power supply

Sorry Bro, but zzzzzzzzzbrWe're funny You're young, but like old stuff and I'm an old geezer and I'm only interested in the newer stuff Ah well, yin and yang

I prefer to keep the motherboard intact and keep it as a decor, I had a psu at home and I disaasembled it, cut all the wires, bought some new female headers and pins and make them into new extended cables
Comment from : @MinhNguyen-uv4gd

I had older Motherboard but mine is MSI for Intel 775 Seeing that Asus Motherboard, this one just looks premium for the timebrbrI was kinda 👎 as it lacks of onboard VGA But at that time, users using dGPU whether it was Nvidia or ATI Radeon (before become AMD Radeon)

Despite not having your background in electronics, I’ve also disassembled my fair share of components 😅 I’ve got boxes of those switches, cooling fans, power sockets and small motors… they eventually DO come in handy brbr5:27 I’d salvage the heatsink bracket, as I’ve dealt with some of these old motherboards with a broken tab on the bracket, which prevents the heatsink from firmly securing to the CPU, requiring fastening it with cable ties 😂brbrGreat video
