Metallurgy

I experimented with melting aluminum cans and hammering railway nails. Using firebricks I created a small forge which was capable of melting aluminum cans. My first designs used a charcoal fire supercharged by forcing air into it with a mattress pump. Later, I used a propane burner that I custom built which was cleaner, more efficient, and easier to light than charcoal. After I melted enough cans to fill the crucible, I would pour the molten aluminum into muffin tins to form ingots. I also used the forge to heat up rail road spikes (made of low carbon steel), which I hammered into rudimentary blades just for fun.
