If you dont use the tap down the back, scrap it.
My place 1950 ish had screw guage copper installed must be 3/4" it has thick walls when you cut the stuff. Is this stuff still used? I need to do some plumbing down the track and wondering what to do, install new stuff, as you know the price of copper is it worth taking this to the scrap metal or is it of more value to some one else?
The reason I ask is I will take out approx 30 lm that gives me a tap down my back yard that I dont use to start with.

Plumbers were around long before Jesus was a carpenter
A lot of scrap metal places won't even take copper at the moment, and if they do they will give you next to nothing for it.
Up until about september last year we were getting, I think, around $7 kg for old coil's and scrap copper parts. We took 100kg's down there at the start of the year and they said they would give us $50! That doens't even cover the time and petrol to drive there.
bright pipe is now good for about $4.60/kg, dirty pipe about $3.20.
