| What kind of setup do you use for castings. What do you melt metal in. What metals can you melt. I have been wanting to play with some aluminum to learn. Mite start with lead and work my way up to hotter stuff. I love steam engines. I want to build one. Pooh Bear |

| How much gas does it use. Is it expensive to operate. I would like to do this but I'm afraid of what it will do to our gas bill. Pooh Bear |

| I run mine on bottle gas... Not city gas... Sure it takes alot of gas to melt metal... Any hobbie takes money... Some more than others... |

| Mine's a lot smaller, but it runs. John
