Question:

Can you melt and cast metal in ground hole?

Is it possible to melt metals like bronze and copper by digging a hole, placing a pipe in at an angle and attaching a blower and adding coal or charcoal to it? I have been wanting to cast scrap metals: Mostly copper, bronze/brass, aluminum, and lead that I have left over from projectsI don't have the time to build a kiln with refractory so I was wondering if this would workI could also dig in my current burn pit.Will this work?Is it safe?Will it get hot enough to melt bass and copper?Any suggestions?Thanks!
