Default buck a pound, nothing ground

Finally after finding enough interest in a few customers buying the scrap I decided to see what was towards the bottom of the trash can. As I washed the glass, the frit fell further down the trash can, and then a tree frog came out and we had to transplant him away from the glass.

I found out that washing the glass will remove the frit, but does nothing for the film that needs to be cleaned off of each rod (which I am not doing), but I am going through the cans sorting out the frit and tiny pieces.

I also realized that packing so much glass into even a larger Effetre box needs to have some organization. And that I can put about 10-12 pounds into a smaller box and fill up a larger Effetre box.

Once I have all my boxes filled and fill the larger trash can orders, anything left will be offered by the 10 pound box, but if that does not happen this time, I have a new system to rescue broken glass and offer it at cheap prices.
