Would that work with this new crucible (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H539V5D)?
I was looking on amazon and other places and found the (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07S6BG8HC/). Obviously the price sucks, but when I start casting from 3d prints it will be a lot safer for the 2nd type of tongs.
In terms of what I am melting. I actually have an insane amount of material i need to melt. I have ~400-500 disk platters of hard drives already removed (why i bought the crucible above). Then the shell of the hard drive can also be melted down. I then have around ~200 laptop hard drives i still need to dissemble. Waiting to finish the old large hard drives first.
Then I have the copper from the R/W heads, which will be fun to just have a bar of copper from that.
I also have pure aluminum shavings from milled aluminum. That I am holding off on until i am ready to deal with the possible oil issue of melting those.
The cans I save are simply the ones I drink. I have around ~4 more bags of cans to melt. I like doing this since i already buy the soda, might as well get something out of it and put it towards my hobby.
