Finished converting the last of the bits from water scrapping to cup cake ingots, well all but maybe 5lbs.   It was rained on two nights ago and they hissed when added to the partly full crucible so I gave that up as a bad idea.  

Water scrapping results in a mix of aluminum and charcoal.  Today with the mix spread out over an old carpet I used a leaf blower to remove most of the charcoal away.   Much easier then removing it by had or running it with water in the concrete mixer to bust it up.  Yeah I tried that.
