What format were they?
But thats an odd bucket for handling the hot alu. What I've used for casting iron was an equally long handled, fireclay covered bucket that we tipped over sideways to pour the iron out by rolling the loop on the other end of the handle to control the pour. In a half knealing position with the left knee sticking out to hold the weight in the middle of the handle. The bucket held about 80 lbs of iron & weighed about 30 lbs empty. I spent a summer in '60 doing that, and my back reminds me of how dumb that was 24/7/365 since. > > Cheers, > > Jeshua Lacock > Founder/Engineer > 3DTOPO Incorporated > <http://3DTOPO.com> > Phone: 208.462.4171 > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > ------ Live Security Virtual Conference > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond. > Discussions will include endpoint security, mobile security and the > latest in malware threats. > http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfrnl04242012/114/50122263/ > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
