    #1 question is what the costs of propane to do this. How many gallons of propane , and what costs. O have like 900 pounds to melt, been saving it for over a decade.

      Sorry don’t pay for my gas so I’m not sure how much it cost and I don’t really both with weighing the gas but I don’t need to keep track sorry. And thank you for watching 👍

      With copper I usually go thru a tank for bout 5 bars, aluminum is a bit less seeing how I can turn the gas off and add more without it freezing so fast

      @@shermantripp5246 I have no need to melt it. Using seven gallons of propane cost like @23.00. I melt aluminum with waste wood 20 pounds at a time. I can not justify the cost of propane to melt 900 pounds of copper, that I've scrapped for the last 20+ years. I want to set up solar panels and melt it using free power.

      @@shermantripp5246 What does those 5 bars weigh. That way I can figure out propane use to melted bar weight.
