   They fetch about $100 for the precious metals. Enough for a drug fix.   
      
   It's not that the cables are so hard to cut, it's the tools they use to   
   get the converter in 3 minutes won't work if the cables are blocking the   
   pipes, and the cables are more time-consuming to cut.   
      
   The bar stock is actually easier to cut with a battery powered   
   reciprocating saw than the steel cable.
