That is a good idea. Know we used to do it with cables when we stripped them out of jobs (I'm an electrician), then split it between us for few drinks after work on a friday.
Something that should be encouraged more.
I'm not really sure where she took the stuff but there must be plenty of places that'll pay you for scrap metal eh? I think she said you got more if you separated it all so she would stip the spokes out of wheels so that she could give them the ali and steel separately.
Anyway when I was in the other day they had done a big tidy in the wrkshop whilst they were shut between christmas and new year and there was a big pile of stuff like chain, cables, cassette cogs etc lying on the workshop floor and I got asked to box it up as they wanted to take it to the dump, I suggested they take it to the scrappy n get cash for it but that was "too much bother". If I had had the car with me I'd have taken it but I cycled in that day :(
