Hello all. I'm the maintenance manager at a Christian camp and retreat center and money's tight. We've recently been informed of a house that's being demolished. It's about a hour and a half away, and has all aluminum siding, gutters, downspouts, fascia, soffit and window shutters. I think there's enough aluminum there to warrant peeling it off and selling it at the scrap yard. Has anyone ever done this? (I know criminals do) We'll have a volunteer crew next week to help with this if we decide to do it. I know I should have some measurements, but I wasn't prepared when I looked at the house. It's a two story, probably 3 or 4 bedroom, so there's quite a bit of house. It's got 10" siding. I would imagine there's around $2000 worth of aluminum on that house. With a volunteer crew, and a trailer to haul it back to the scrap yard, do you think it's a good idea? There also might be some copper plumbing and wiring that can be removed too. Let me know what you think.

Using bolts to draw the two halves together will damage the PTO
