[modeleng] Aluminum Foundry was Re: Alzheimer's & Aluminum

All I did was relabel the OT thread to fit its then current OT subject, 
Jesse.  And, I can assure you that not knowing what your next project will 
be is not a symptom of Alzheimer's.  Not knowing what your current project 
is, now THAT is a symptom of the disease.  Speaking of your current project, 
the deck wench/winch, are you documenting it for a Live Steam article?

(As you will note, I also can briefly veer back onto list topic.)

I almost hate to do this, but splat dab to the middle of the list topic we 
go!  When converting engine blocks, pistons, transmission housings, kitchen 
pots & pans, and other large aluminum items into foundry food, how do you 
break them into manageable size bits?
