weird plugin wifi adapter, I don't expect to become a scrap guru right away but I have all the time in the world on my hands, Is all the gold looking stuff on circuit boards and the like really gold? I was pretty indiscriminate about what I pulled off and put into a bowl. I don't wanna miss anything,

I need to acquire some metal melting stuff, like a crucible, a furnace, a stirring stick, (right? what else do I need to make myself some silver/gold ingots anyways? I'll start digging around the forum and see if I can't find it on my own too)

Also does anyone know the cheapest I can get these things for? is there a certain brand that's "the right one"? or any that don't work? It would be good to get some inside knowledge on that sort of stuff, thanks in advance, a few links would be awesome.
