Got allot of different metals, was thinking about melting them down into bars. Not sure if they'd ever be useful or anything hate to just haul it off.

Melt it into bars that'll fit into your mailbox.  Using clear plastic packing tape affix those prepaid return mail business reply envelopes to the bar of metal.  Put the flag up and chuckle.


I've mailed a few bricks this way.

Aluminum is easy to melt and cast. Copper and brass a a little more difficult.

Metalcasting is a pretty cool hobby and isnt very expensive if you are resourceful and creative.
