Melting and casting aluminum is one skill that could be very handy if you were faced with a long-term survival situation.
Metals such as aluminum would be useful to fashion metal parts as well as a bartering tool; here is how to melt scrap aluminum and fashion the molten aluminum into ingots for easy storage.
Aluminum ingots in a survival situation could be invaluable – either re-purposed to make machinery components or used as a bartering tool.
As always, if you attempt this project, take the utmost safety precautions – you will be working with very hot metal, molten aluminum and fire – spare no quarter for safety.
Do you have ideas for melting other metals? If so, leave a comment below.
