What is a pot of metal?
Pot metal is a slang term used to indicate cheap metal alloys with low melting point. The low melting point allows this metal to be very easy, but generally low quality can cause problems during casting and later. There is no formal definition of a metal pot, so it can be difficult to determine its content. Some common metals included in such alloys include zinc, lead, copper and tin. It tends to become very soft and porous and is subject to deformity over time. It also tends to break or bend or bend, which is unsuitable for many tasks, and because some of the metals commonly include toxic, this type of metal can also be dangerous for human health. No sophisticated foundry tools are needed, as relatively low temperatures are needed to turn into a lingitable liquid and no specialized castings and molds are necessary. Some people like to use a metal pot to play in a foundry, experiment with forms and ideas before using metals of a higher qualityIts and this metal can be useful in the production of some items.
This metal can be difficult to do because of its often unknown properties. Many people try to deliver a metal pot to protect or cover its origin; In misunderstanding, it tends to be dull gray. Objects made with this type of metal are also difficult to repair because they tend to receive poorly welding, soldering or gluing, techniques are usually used to repair other broken metal objects.
Some people refer to monsters overwhelmingly as "monkey metal" and sometimes also called "Die-Cast Zinc" or "white metal", among other things. Ingots for melting and cast are Available from many metallurgical companies, and some people make their own metal pot, break different metal objects of scrap around the store and melt them into an alloy. Foundries can also sell scrap to people looking for a cheap source of metal even ifSuch a scrap sometimes contains a range of dirt, which may prove problematic.
