:? Am I right in thinking that copper gives off a poisonous gas (cyanide) when hot? I'm sure I've heard about a copper pipe being used as an exhaust pipe on somebody's 2cv (because it made a better exhaust note) and it had to be changed for the MOT. :shock: I may be totally wrong though :oops: :lol:

think of the scrappage value of alll that!!

i (with permission of house owner) raided a skip of loads of copper pipes, and as i was carting it off, the polish worker he had came outside, shouted wait man stop, so i thought oh bugger he wants it, and he goes, more, take, i have more!!
