I'm planning to make my own crucible for the Gingery foundry. I found a
1 qt stainless steel sauce pan at WalMart that was just about perfect except for the fact that it was $15. (I am SO cheap!) Then I found one that was just $5--that's more like it! But the $5 one said it was "18/10 stainless steel". What does that mean? Is that some kind of steel/aluminum mixture or something? And, cutting to the chase, is it going to melt if I use it as a crucible?- posted
