I'll have to tell that to my parents. At least my dad melted metal on the stove when he was a kid so he knows what it's like. I tried melting some aluminum last night out it the street with a butane pencil torch and it actually worked. I was only able to melt really small pieces and it didn't get fully molten. I can't wait until my Gingery books arrive.
