I have been melting 3 types of metals
AL
From cans into bars the dross gets sold with my scrap AL I only do up AL for the heck of learning
The kids get a kick out of a same size AL bar and Lead bar weight difference .
Zinc dicast
From small items always over looked - No big value but I did manage to sell 4 pounds for $12, that has not happened again
Still I keep making the round silver color chunks - Why ?
Why not ! ,
Interesting how handles from wood draws ,
parts from appliances when melted make nice ingots.
I use ZN from WW also.
Over all not bad density of weight to size it's not lead but sure not Aluminum .
Lead
I have lots of faith to future value of lead currently I make my bars from plumbing scrap and wheel weights - Batteries I don't bother with
I can not pick up the the 3 gallon pail that is almost half full
INCREDIBLE the density of weight to size .
I currently have many WW buckets to go through or catch up on
I guess what I am doing has become like a hobbie and not much different then tossing coins into a bucket - to one day add up to some money from no place .
