From my dead friends shed clear out. Pouring pots.
Quite heavy and thick.
I worked on a large annealing furnace many years ago and the castings to be annealed were stacked in baskets made(I was told) of gun metal to withstand the continuous heat over hundreds of cycles without sagging and going all melty melty.
I know when they scrapped the furnace the baskets fetched big money.
These things I've got look like the same gun metal stuff to me. Trying to raise funds for his wife.
