In fact, since you'd rather I demand spoon-feeding than lurking proper, what's the consensus on melting down copper into ingots? My work has me tossing out decent amounts of copper wire/old propane line on occasion and I feel like it's just all going to waste. IDK how easy it is to melt your own metals though, or if copper is like aluminum where there's like 40 different grades of it. 15 seconds on Google tells me you can make a copper furnace for next to nothing if you're thrifty, but I'd rather just spend 200-300$ on a small smelter, if those even exist at that price point.
