No prob....all well and good sir. I usually use the burnt finger technique! :005: :013:

And yes, the grade of aluminum does matter when it comes to the melting point. The better the grade, the longer it takes to melt due to the higher temp it needs to be at. this has to do with the alloys in it to make it stronger. But the point I was making still stands I would believe. The info I sent is general and is used as a guideline.
