Hi all dear collectors. I'm back today from scrap yard travel. Beated 1000 km by polish super slow train but it was worth. Very very pleased people especially two chiefs  Very very huge company, about 20 or more workers. I got to sort about 200 kilograms of ceramic PGA cpus and about 60 kilograms of plastic PGA cpus. I don't how much there was 3000 ? 4000 ? 5000 ? There was many I can say and I cheched all one by one  It took my full first day and some hours from second. Will upload short video in quick time and one photo from mobile phone tomorrow.

Wow, that sounds like collector heaven! I have been in contact with the few scrapyards here in Sweden that handles this kind of scrap, but a big NO. Its Ebay for me. Looking forward to some pics!
Edit: ...and some cool chips!

Big NO is present everywhere but this company is very very friendly maybe because I was first strange person who collect this scrap ? Workers asked me about where I plan to use them  I said I collect them ... silent ... ahh yes

Exactly ... they are not cooperate with marketing rule "public relations". They lost because I plan to send them for free electronic scrap from my company and home (from auction's purchases). They normally paid for that almost 2 EUR per kilogram of motherboards. I sent them 36 old boards without jumpers, some missing sockets and BIOSes and it was worth 50 EUR.
Long time I didn't refreshed my collection site so many CPUs which waiting for update + many took from trip will take much time of work like Debbie last time 
I must buy special tools for straightning pins and get job in my hand In two - max 3 weeks I will clean and sort all items (6 kgs - 13,23 lbs) and put big sale topic.

I use two retractable pencils without lead for that, like this one:
- there's no contact between the pins while straightning
- the pencils exits in different diameters
- very cheap and easy to use
BTW: here's a photo of my secret chip mine (about 1000 kilo already scanned chips)

Friends,
don't mix the topics! This is a thread about the open day at demotronic, not a general thread about chip mines... Where are the moderators?

What a difference ... Demotronic is chip mine and we talk about similar companies. But no problem to cut and paste to separated topic.
I will try Borris's method. Very good tip

Good method but very time costly !
But this the only method Iknow when there are too much badly bent pins.
You can also use cutters, with which you can put straight pins columns by columns...

I was in shop and bought set of precision screwdriver. I modified one unit to strengthen pin at ground when second tool straightning pin from top. This is safe (pin will not be a broken) and easy method to straightning much bended pins like this one from a photo.
