Are the P4's (478 pin) processors worth it? After the time and the cost of materials. Is it better to ebay them?
 
I'm currently processing 311 grams of pins, removed with heat, from green fiber P3's and P4's. I'll post my results when I'm finished.

I wanted to see if I should go to the trouble of processing them or simply sell them off so this is a test run to settle it for me.

Money-wise, it's not. In my opinion anyway.
Though, lots of other folks here will process them for the fun of it.
 
Sure wish I was better at processing, Weighed our green fibers up today, and this is what we have.

Hi Zack;

Nice pile ;; :lol: :lol: Now keep them till you have enough to process.. :roll: :twisted:

Is that another 200lb scale that you have in the first pic. :?: :?:
 
Paul,

Yeah we have been saving for about 3 months now. We are planning on just saving them out till the end of the year. I am hoping to have close to 400-500lbs by then. But yeah the one in the pick is a 4'x4' 5000lb scale, the one against the wall is a 3'x3' 5000lb scale. We got the smaller one hoping it would be lighter, it is actually heavier than our 4x4, lol.
