I found this at the dump and didn't know what exactly it was so I grabbed it and looked it up. I actually have two but the other one is a better brand and has all of the fittings so I am going to try and sell it.

This one was full of water so I figure it deserves to die.

After finishing the unscrewing of the screws, I found this.

Well, looks like it's time to get the wood chisels out. You know, the right tool for the job and all that.

Well, whatever works. First piece, 191 grams of cast aluminum. Second piece 33 grams of clean aluminum. Did you notice that I got my vise?

Alright, now lets get into the next layer after another good unscrewing.

Yay, more gaskets to chisel off! Plus, another 95 grams!

Okay! Now the other side.

More gaskets and look! 314 grams of cast for the back plate

And for the grand finale!image.png

791 grams and one cool looking piece of cast aluminum. I wonder what its next form will be.

Okay everybody, let's get scrapping!
