How to Strip a 48 LB Transformer

In this video, I take apart a 48 LB transformer and recover the copper winding inside — using mostly hand tools and without power tools. I show the complete process, from opening the transformer to removing the copper winding and weighing the final copper recovery. The transformer weighs 48 LB, and the final copper winding weighs about 9 LB. If you work with scrap, recycling, transformers, copper recovery, or simply enjoy seeing what valuable materials are hidden inside everyday equipment, this video is for you. No power tools. Just simple tools, time, and a lot of work. Thanks for watching and supporting SimpleMan! Hashtags #Scrap #Copper #Transformer #CopperRecovery #Scrapping #Recycling #ScrapMetal #NoPowerTools
