Just curious if anyone here does small-scale metal casting—aluminum, brass, etc. Would love to see your setups or hear about your projects!

I've always wanted to do it because being able to melt scrap aluminum and turn it into something useful or artistic is incredibly satisfying and environmentally friendly. But it has its drawbacks: Molten metal is no joke. Always wear full Personal Protective Equipment and it requires some skill to do.
