love of aluminum...

recycling alum. powder and flakes.

 アルミの粉や破片をリサイクル中であって、
 
not a scavenger.

決してゴミ漁りの人ではございませぬ。

That is the appropriate shirt to be wearing while scrapping!
We collect the aluminum shavings but they usually don't accept it for $,
even though they do keep it and recycle it.
There is a shop next to the recycling plant that gets all the good stuff.
It's amazing what potential people just throw away!

Since shinya's mastered the aluminum sheet welding,
he's got to try the casting.

It's a good pictorial of how rudimentary the casting process is.
The neighbors would love you!
I know there's a foundry up there too but its not as fun.
