I don't know about you, but I have made plenty of aluminum scrap over the course of this build. Strips of sheet, chunks of angle, hardware store stuff used for fixtures, you name it. Now the good larger pieces I always save for those odd projects. However, the rest used to go into the recycle can. Not any more, now I recycle at home.
Step one, make a mini metal forge
Step 2, melt down all that leftover aluminum, throw some soda cans in there while you are at it.
Step 3/4, cast a blank and machine it into something usefull. You can also try sand casting or just being silly like pouring molten metal into a watermelon...haha As a bonus, you can also use this as a blacksmith forge.
