Melting metal in a microwave oven

Tuesday 12 August 2003

David Reid has been working on this new method.

Research is nearing completion on a system that will allow the melting and casting of bronze, silver, gold, and even cast iron, using an unmodified domestic microwave oven as the energy source. A potential foundry in every kitchen !!
