I thought of the same thing, I used to commute by bike to work and I often find many junked computers by the street and collected all the ICs chips. I have a few pounds but never got to actually going through the whole process.
Good for you giving this a go. @yaziris
Ooooo NICE! Yeah, I'd keep pliers and a screwdriver handy if that was the case, salvaging the ICs and some other small stuff on site. They do add up quick!
The process actually looks more daunting than it really is, as long as you know what you're doing with the chemicals and keeping safe, I'd say go for it! 😎
