7 Benefits of Using Nickel Scrap in Alloys
Tumblr media
At Vardhman Ferro Alloys, we understand the critical function that nickel scrap metal plays in the manufacturing of incredible alloys. Nickel, being a versatile steel, is substantially applied in several industries to create alloys that can be proof against corrosion, warmth, and location. As a trusted scrap importer and nickel scrap dealer, we apprehend the importance of the usage of superb nickel metal scrap to manufacture high nickel alloys for various applications. In this blog, we are in a position to speak about seven big benefits of the usage of nickel scrap in alloy manufacturing.
1. Cost-Effectiveness
One of the primary reasons to apply nickel scrap metal in alloys is its fee effectiveness. Nickel is a steeply priced steel, but with the useful resource of sourcing and recycling scrap, producers can extensively reduce expenses in comparison to the use of natural nickel. Using scrap nickel permits holds manufacturing fees down without compromising the amazingness of the very last product. This makes nickel scrap an attractive choice for industries looking to maintain a variety of fashionable common performances.
2. Environmental Benefits
Recycling nickel scrap is an environmentally remarkable workout. Instead of extracting new nickel from mines, which can be a beneficial resource in depth and threatening to the surroundings, nickel scrap steel is repurposed into valuable alloys. This machine permits reducing the selection for mining, reducing carbon emissions, and minimizing the environmental effect. By sourcing scrap nickel, businesses contribute to a more sustainable and eco-conscious manufacturing approach.
3. Improved Alloy Quality
Using nickel scrapin the production of high-nickel alloys can beautify the overall awesomeness of the alloy. Recycled nickel regularly keeps a number of the actual features of newly mined nickel, which includes its resistance to corrosion, warmth, and oxidation. When well processed, scrap nickel may be used to create alloys with advanced durability and well-known performance, making it a brilliant choice for stressful applications in industries like aerospace, vehicles, and chemical processing.
4. Reduced Energy Consumption
Recycling nickel scrap requires notably a whole lot masses less power than mining and refining virgin nickel. The approach of turning scrap into a usable product is more strength-inexperienced, significant to a reduction in regular strength intake. This no longer best allows lower manufacturing expenses but furthermore contributes to a lower carbon footprint of producing techniques. Using scrap nickel aligns with global sustainability dreams, reducing the need for energy-massive mining operations.
5. Enhances Alloy Properties
High-nickel alloys are regularly applied in environments that require resistance to immoderate conditions, along with excessive temperatures and corrosive substances. By incorporating nickel scrap into the alloys, producers can beautify particular features with energy, ductility, and resistance to corrosion. For instance, nickel-primarily-based alloys are extensively used in the production of additives for mills, plane engines, and chemical reactors, in which conventional overall performance and durability are crucial.
6. Supports Circular Economy
The use of nickel scrap in alloy manufacturing is a key detail of the round monetary device. Instead of permitting scrap to go to waste, groups can reuse and recycle materials, contributing to the sustainable lifecycle of the product. This round method ensures that valuable metals like nickel are constantly recycled and reused, minimizing waste and making the first-rate use of available property. As a scrap importer, Vardhman Ferro Alloys promotes a sustainable organization version with the resource of facilitating the recycling and repurposing of nickel scrap for modern-day products.
7. Increased Availability of Material
The availability of nickel scrap is a few one in every of a type gain of using recycled material in alloy manufacturing. Nickel is a finite beneficial aid, and counting on mining by myself can motivate supply shortages. By using scrap nickel, manufacturers can boost the general availability of the product without over counting on mining activities. This extended supply lets in meet the developing name for high alloys in numerous industries, ensuring a ordinary waft of substances for manufacturing.
Conclusion
The use of nickel scrap steel in alloy manufacturing gives numerous advantages, which encompass rate monetary financial savings, environmental sustainability, and superior alloy terrific. As a trusted nickel scrap dealer and scrap importer, Vardhman Ferro Alloys is devoted to imparting exceptional scrap nickel to agencies in need of high nickel alloys.

Nickel was a very neat and orderly bot, despite her tendency to be incredibly busy most cycles. Since joining the DJD she had always taken it upon herself to make sure their bases and ships were tidy and clean of... well of whatever the others left lying around. It usually ranged from half chewed up parts, to energon, to other miscellaneous fluids and refuse. For the most part she didn't mind keeping the common areas clean and obstacle free, when she wasn't putting her comrades back together. They were all busy and it was the least she could do to make their down time more... acceptable. However...
She was not their personal custodian. Even though sometimes she very much felt like it. She found that often times if she didn't check in on them, at least a couple times every handful of cycles, their personal habitation suits would become scrap heaps. And their hygiene. Primus she couldn't remember how many times she had to get on Tesarus on cleaning his blades and actually sharpening them! She had told him time and time again to clean and sharpen them or they would dull and rust, but her words often fell on deaf audials. She found herself becoming quite acquainted with the inside of Tesarus's blade tunnel of a chassis.
Luckily she had already checked on him earlier that cycle, and scrubbed the walking blender until he winced at the sight of steel wool. She was now heading to poke her helm into Tarn's hab suit. Nickel typically had more faith in her leader's hygiene and cleaning practices, so she hadn't intended on sticking around his personal quarters for longer than she was welcome. Although, it wasn't as if she never had to scold him for not taking better care of himself. It was often enough that she made a point to pester him on a regularly scheduled basis.
She was zooming down the main hall of The Tower, alternating pedes to keep up her momentum, then skid to a halt in front of the private elevators Tarn had once directed her to use when she wished to have an audience with him. She gazed at the sleek metal, looking it over, then turned her attention to the keypad next to the tightly shut entrance. Nickel scratched her helm, thinking of what the code was that Tarn had sent her. She typed in a couple incorrect codes before remembering it and swiftly typing it in.
The keypad lit up green and called the elevator down to her level once the correct code was entered, making her shoot a fist into the air in victory. Her little face was alight with pride at remembering the code and she swiftly rolled into the compartment once the doors slid open with a bell ding, then hitting the proper number to Tarn's floor.
It was only a short klik before Nickel arrived at his floor, and exited the elevator. She called out to Tarn as she rolled out into his private floor.
"Knock knock! Are you home Tarn? I'm here to check in on you! You wouldn't believe the state Tesarus was in, I nearly scrubbed the top layer of metal off the big guy!"

The world is rapidly transitioning to renewable power, but there are shortcomings. Solar power falls at night, and wind power recedes and ascends irregularly. New technologies need to be developed that can store energy from the electrical grid when there's a surplus and deploy it when there's not enough. Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries play a crucial role in everyday life, powering devices from smartphones to electric vehicles. However, they rely on limited resources like lithium, nickel, and cobalt, raising concerns about sustainability and cost. Xiaowei Teng, the James H. Manning Professor in Chemical Engineering at WPI, is leading a team to explore new battery technologies for grid energy storage. The team's recent results, published in the European scientific journal ChemSusChem, suggest that iron, when treated with the electrolyte additive silicate, could create a high-performance alkaline battery anode. The second most abundant metal in the Earth's crust after aluminum, iron is far more sustainable than nickel and cobalt. The United States alone recycles approximately over 40 million metric tons of iron and steel from scrap each year.

Boromir's bracers from The Fellowship of the Ring
Behind the scenes:
This was my first venture into real leatherworking so there are a lot of basics included in the materials list, but now that I have them, I won't run out for a while :)
My materials:
2mm thick scrap leather
a full basic leatherworking tool kit including metal thimble, skiving knife, edge-trimmers, diamond punches and burnishing tools
leather needles
waxed thread
swivel knife for cutting the pattern in
rubber mallet
cutting boards
leather dye and scrap cloth for applying it
sewing pony
contact adhesive
four buckles
nickel studs
I'd made the bracers before, 10 years ago, for a costume party but had made them out of craft foam because lack of time/space/money for leather-working.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Since I had some time to kill over the holidays, I decided it was time to give things a go. First stage was redrawing my original pattern then cutting the leather to shape/size:
Tumblr media
Next up was marking out the patterns onto the main body of the leather. Lessons have been learned. I foolishly decided to freehand it. It still looks nice, but now I know how I could have done it better.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once both sets of patterns were down, I tooled the leather with the swivel knife. Learned very quickly that I should have got a slightly thicker leather to make the pattern stand out more, but for a first attempt, very happy.
Tumblr media
Punched the main stitching holes and then did the staining to get the red-brown colouring. Took a couple of layers and several attempts to get to the right and consistent shade.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once the dye dried overnight, burnished the edges of the smaller piece to make them smooth and shiny, then attached the two sections together with contact adhesive and started the stitching (ow my fingies)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The trickiest part of the whole thing was adding the buckles and trying to work out the best length for both of them, taking into account that the bracers are meant to be worn on top of several layers, including a quilted arm-guard.
Thankfully, I found a lovely batch of buckles that also had the pin on a separate rod from the rod that the buckle loop went around, which simplified putting it all together. I've done buckles before, but never with material this thick.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once the straps were on, fastened with stud and stitching, it was just a matter of giving the entire thing a polish with beeswax to give it a smooth sheen all over and then adding the silver details. I did attempt foil, but it ended badly, so I switched to silver paint instead.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My Boromir-by-installments is coming together, little by little :)

Scavengers of Hygiea
In the Golden Age of Space Exploration, the Asteroid Belt was the beating heart of the System economy.
The Belt had countless M-type asteroids, with more iron, nickel, and other metals than humanity could dream of using. Once the largest rocks were claimed, prospectors and miners swarmed the Belt, sending countless tons of metal to Pallas and Vesta and other industrial hubs. Out churned fleets of spaceships and continents of space habitats, which offered more and more opportunities for people trapped on Earth to go to space. And many of them went to the Asteroid Belt.
During the Belt Rush, Belters developed their own culture. The early generations were far beyond the practical reach of any earthbound government or corporation. This freedom came at a cost; living so far from humanity's home meant one had to rely on their neighbors, be they fellow crew members or nearby ships.
The Belters are proud of their traditional freedom and diversity; virtually every type of government humanity imagined was attempted by at least a few Belter crews, and probably an entire flotilla. But most Belters were proud of their strong community bonds, working for the good of the crew rather than the individual, and helping any ship in need (even if they had been enemies mere days earlier). How else can we hope to survive in space, they asked?
But those days couldn't last. Before long, institutions of the Inner System found ways to extend their influence into the Belt. Belters resisted, asserting their traditional rights, but this resistance could only stand as long as the Belters collectively held economic leverage. And humanity's appetite for construction meant the Belt was running out of M-type asteroids.
The Asteroid Belt isn't the System's only source of metal, just the most readily accessible. And as that accessible metal dried up, the Golden Age of Space faded and the Asteroid Drought began. When new space stations were constructed, they used metals from deep-core mines on Luna and Mercury, strongly controlled by corporate interests.
As the profitability of mining faded, the loose Belter flotillas contracted around major asteroids, like Ceres and the Silver Quartet. Among that quartet is Hygiea, third-largest asteroid in the Belt, site of the largest scrapyard in the System.
When space stations and large spaceships receive critical damage, or suffer poor maintenance, or just grow obsolete, their husks may be sold and put on low-energy orbits to the Hygiea scrapyards. There, teams of technicians evaluate the craft's remains, clear any lingering hazards, and prepare the craft's superstructure for reuse in a new vessel or station.
Many see Hygiea's scrap-crews as the last bastion for traditional Belters, the last place in the System where their way of life can prosper. But megacorporations like the Psyche Mining Commission and the Hermes Group have already begun purchasing key components of Hygiean infrastructure, seeking to streamline their system into something more profitable.
The future of Belter culture as we know it is uncertain...

Recycling could enable Europe to cut its reliance on EV battery mineral imports by up to a quarter by the end of the decade, a new study finds. Materials from end-of-life batteries and gigafactory scrap have the potential to build up to 2.4 million EVs locally in 2030, according to the research by Transport & Environment (T&E). But the EU and the UK will not be able to harness this potential unless they secure recycling projects that are at risk of being cancelled, T&E said.
Recycling spent cells and production scrap could provide 14% of the lithium, 16% of the nickel, 17% of the manganese, and a quarter (25%) of the cobalt that Europe will need for electric cars in 2030, the study finds(..)
P.S. The production of electric cars will not require the construction of as many new mines as some as some people think...

OK, beginning what I sincerely hope is the last bit of exploration before we can finally go into Baldur's Gate proper: *trumpet fanfare* the basement of that one blacksmith we ran into.
I legitimately don't know if there's anything important down here but I'm being thorough damn it. My liveblogging integrity is important to me.
Tumblr media
There's a waterfall, which automatically makes it more interesting than my basement.
There are several deep gnomes milling around in a room up ahead, one of whom speaks up as Hector and Co approach:
Tumblr media
"The boss is expecting you - hasn't forgotten what you did for him at Moonrise."
Yo, what?? This is Wulbren's hideout?
Tumblr media
The room is a workshop area, full of blacksmithing tools and scattered pieces of scrap metal. Several of the gnomes say vague things about Steel Watch parts when spoken to, leading me to believe Wulbren may be trying to reverse-engineer the automatons currently protecting the city.
Nickels, one of Wulbren's buddies from Moonrise, is here and not enjoying himself:
Tumblr media
"It's stopped - but it'll happen again. It keeps happening! The shivering-shaking-quaking! Don't you feel it?"
Tumblr media
"Yes!" Hector agrees, eager for information. "It keeps happening - what is it?"
Tumblr media
But Nickels has no info to offer. "There's something underneath the city - inside the rock! But when I ask the stone why it shakes, it only screams." His face twists and his voice turns to a pained whimper. "I want to go home..."
Poor guy. :( Hector didn't actually have context the way we did for what was causing the quakes, so I think this might be the first moment where he puts two and two together and connects this to the Wall Meat from Moonrise and knows for certain that the Absolute is what is causing the quakes. Very bad news.
On a lighter note, the lady we saved from being poisoned in the Underdark is here! Nice to see she got reunited with her friends. All she says, though, is that we'll catch up later and that we should go see Wulbren.
So let's go do that!
Hector's opinion on Wulbren at this point is decidedly middling - he seemed OK in Moonrise, then was a dick at Last Light, and then tried to smooth things over again later on because he realized Hector could be useful to him. So Hector is treading carefully here.
Tumblr media
"Good to see you. Wasn't sure you'd make it to the city. Regretting it yet?"
Wulbren always speaks in a very clipped-off tone, matter-of-fact, every syllable flat with determination. But there's a note of anger under it now, and frustration. "I spent a lot of time thinking of worst-case scenarios while I was locked in that cell you plucked me out of at Moonrise," he goes on. "I didn't imagine anything as bad as this. The Gondians have handed Enver Gortash the means to bring about the end of liberty in Baldur's Gate. And the citizens have rolled out the red carpet for their new tyrant!"
His voice lifts angrily. "Resistance fighters are few and far between - my Ironhands, what's left of the Harpers, and you." He raises an eyebrow questioningly at Hector. "I hope."
Tumblr media
Hector debates trying to explain all the elements of the situation that Wulbren has no idea of - the Absolute, the Elder Brain, the trio of Chosen (now down to two)... but then thinks better of it. Perhaps it's better if Wulbren thinks this is only a fight for the fate of the city, and not for the minds of its inhabitants. "Gortash is a dead man," he says instead, matching his matter-of-fact tone to the gnome's. "I have reasons of my own for taking him down."
Tumblr media
Wulbren's jaw sets and he nods, satisfied. "As long as our objective is the same," he says harshly, "the reason doesn't matter to me. We have a common enemy." He stabs out a finger in Hector's direction. "But neither of us gets what we want until we deal with our biggest obstacle."
It's like watching the fuse run down on a powder keg. As if even thinking of the struggle ahead incenses him, Wulbren suddenly explodes with anger, his words coming faster now, almost tripping over each other. "The Steel Watch! They're a threat to you, me, and every man woman and child in the city. They act all civilized - servants of the people - but they only serve one man. When he becomes Grand Duke, it'll only get worse. Laws will change, freedoms will vanish, and soon you'll be accursed and sentenced before you've even committed a crime!"
Hector listens impassively as the other man rages. He has not yet encountered one of these Steel Watch automatons, but everything Wulbren is saying reflects his own worries based on what he's heard so far. Extremely powerful mechanical weapons under the control of an incredibly dangerous man who is poised to get more powerful than ever and is carrying a juggernaut of destruction behind him.
"And the fucking Gondians are to blame for all of it!" Wulbren finishes with a snarl.
Hector blinks. Well, that part of Wulbren's tirade is a little out of left field. He knows Wulbren's antagonism towards this other clan of gnomes - that he considers them responsible for the Ironhand's fall from grace - but thus far he has heard nothing to indicate a connection to Gortash beyond the fact that Wulbren hates both of them.
"Why put the blame on the Gondians?" he asks curiously.
"They invented the Steel Watchers," Wulbren hisses. "And they're building an army of them. They've always been happy to provide their technology to despots in exchange for a stipend and the freedom to work in peace. They would have licked Sarevok's boots, given the chance, and now they'll kiss Gortash's ring while the city screams."
Weren't you the one who said *your* ancestors worked with Sarevok? Hector thinks dryly, though he doesn't speak this thought aloud.
Wulbren, unheeding of any potential hypocrisy he might be indulging in, continues, "I had a plan to put a stop to them. But the way things are now, if we stick our heads above ground, the Watchers are on us like flies on shit."
This is all very useful intelligence, regardless of Hector's personal feelings on Wulbren. And no matter how... intense... the gnome is about his own vendettas, he's right about one thing - he and Hector have a common enemy. And Hector needs allies.
Tumblr media
"Maybe I can help," he says carefully.
"I'm sure you can," Wulbren says at once. "You just need a little assistance, and I can provide it. The Gondians are ingenious. But we're more than equal to them. There's nothing they can build that the Ironhands can't tear down." He rubs his hands together eagerly. "I've built something unique just for that purpose. A runepowder bomb - first of its kind. Fifty wizards high on the Weave couldn't summon this kind of firepower."
Tumblr media
"Get the bomb inside the Gondian facility and... boom. Problem solved."
A long silence. Hector shifts uncomfortably. He does not like what Wulbren is describing at all. First of all - he has immediate skepticism of any philosophy that takes more pride in destroying than creating. But more to the point, Wulbren is talking about tasking him with setting off a bomb of unprecedented power in a major manufacturing facility in the middle of a city center. And he wants all the gnomes inside that facility to die.
"Maybe the Gondians are victims, not oppressors," he points out, deliberately placid against Wulbren's anger. He does not consider Wulbren's outlook at all unbiased here, and he considers Gortash fully capable of using unwilling labor in his plots.
"The Gondians picked their side the minute they took orders from Gortash," Wulbren says coldly. "If they had any courage, they'd have refused him and died like heroes, spitting in his face. Now they'll die like the dogs they are."
Tumblr media
Hector feels a strange prickling up the back of his spine as he is reminded, abruptly, of the uncompromising rage of He Who Was, back in the shadowlands. He remembers the raised spirit of Madeline, whose crime was rooted in fear of the overwhelming power steamrolling through her life - and who Hector allowed the possibility of forgiveness, out there in the darkness.
Wulbren is no creature of the Shadowfell, but this is the same question, Hector is sure of it. Some of those people could be lost in a terrible situation not of their own making. And he will not kill them so brutally without knowing more of the situation than Wulbren's limited perspective. "I'll make contact with the Gondians," he says firmly. "Maybe they'll see reason."
Tumblr media
Wulbren scowls. "Fine. You want to try flapping your gums in the belly of the beast, be my guest. But their idea of diplomacy is a steel fist shoved where the sun don't shine. So take the bomb - just in case I'm right and you're wrong."
Hector nods. "Fine," he says. "I'll take it - but I'll only use it as a last resort." He fully intends not to use it - but Wulbren will be pacified, for now at least, by his taking it.
"As long as you see sense, I don't care when you see it," Wulbren says coolly, handing the device over. "The foundry is in the Lower City, down by the docks. Beautiful building, belching smoke into the sky day and night. Getting inside won't be easy, but when you do, place the bomb at the heart of the facility and get yourself back to street level." His lip curls with a sort of violent glee. "The streets will be clear of Watchers in no time!"

Why Nickel Scrap Metal is Valuable?
Tumblr media
Nickel is one of the most valuable metals in the global due to its particular properties and versatility. It is a key trouble in lots of industries, consisting of manufacturing, electronics, and aerospace, and plays a critical function in producing alloys that might be proof against corrosion and severe temperatures. As industries are in search of more sustainable and price-powerful techniques to source substances, nickel scrap steel has grown to be an increasing number of treasured. In this weblog, we’ll discover why alloy nickel scrap metal is so treasured and how businesses can advantage of running with metal scrap companies, scrap importers, and nice metal scrap companies like Vardhman Ferro Alloys.
1. High Demand for Nickel in Industrial Applications
Nickel is important in the production of stainless steel, it is used inside the whole factor from kitchen home equipment to infrastructure. Its capacity to enhance the energy, sturdiness, and corrosion resistance of steel makes it a vital material in industries like automobile, strength, and manufacturing. Additionally, nickel is widely used in the production of rechargeable batteries, in particular in electric-powered vehicles (EVs), which is probably seeing a surge in calls worldwide.
Because of these big applications, nickel stays in the high call, making alloy nickel scrap steel a treasured useful resource. By recycling scrap nickel from vintage gadgets, batteries, or machinery, groups can help meet the growing demand for this treasured steel even as saving expenses in assessment to sourcing new nickel.
2. Cost-Effectiveness and Sustainability
Recycling nickel alloy scrap metal is masses greater cost-powerful than extracting and refining new nickel from ores. Mining and refining nickel require a vast quantity of power, water, and hard work, which drives up production prices. On the other hand, recycling nickel scrap is less power-extensive and has a lower environmental impact. This makes it an appealing preference for industries looking to lessen their operational expenses and their carbon footprint.

Ways for Identifying Scrap Metal
Scrap metal recycling can be overwhelming in the beginning due to its varieties. Scrap metal falls into multiple categories, metal types, and grades. It is essential to know the metal type if you are constructing a structure utilizing recycled scrap metal or have a business for recycling scrap metal. 
Scrap metal has a high value in production systems as it can save resources and costs for mining new metal. Since scrap metal recycling involves melting and repurposing old scrap metal, it is essential to know its type, like Hastelloy C22 scrap, to determine its applications and value. The following articles explain how to distinguish and identify types of scrap metal.
Types of scrap metal
Scrap metal is valuable in different industries, and it is categorized into two prime categories:
Ferrous metals
These metals have high levels of carbon, making them corrosive and leading to their destruction. Some of the top ferrous metals involve nickel scrap metal, steel metal scrap, iron, and stainless steel scrap metal.
Non-ferrous metals
It is another category of scrap metal, and they do not have iron content. These are not magnetic and offer resistance to rust and corrosion. Some examples of non-ferrous metals include zinc, copper, lead, tin, gold, nickel alloys scrap, and aluminum.
Ways to identify scrap metal
It is essential to identify scrap metal, sort them into different types and reuse them for multiple purposes. Following are the ways to identify scrap metal:
Original application
The scrap metal’s earlier application is essential to understanding and sorting the scrap metal type. Specific applications require certain metals. For instance, iron finds applications in machines that have indoor usage as iron is prone to corrosion. 
Copper finds application in electrical wiring for its high conductivity. It is also prominent to note tin is not suitable for plumbing pipes as it can bend easily. Hence, the original application of the metal helps to identify the scrap metal in case one cannot identify its characteristics clearly and determine the rate of steel scrap in India.
  Magnetic properties
The way a metal reacts to magnetic tests helps categorize it into ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals. One can simply hold a magnet piece near the scrap metal. If the metal piece is ferrous, it will attract the magnet and one can classify it as an iron alloy. 
Non-ferrous metals, on the other hand, do not attract to a magnet, making it easy to identify non-magnetic scrap metals like aluminum or brass.
Metal hardness
The hardness of the metal also helps to determine the scrap metal type. One can test metal hardness using a mill file. If the metal piece is easy to flake, it is likely to be copper. You can identify different scrap metals by testing their harness as follows:
Copper: It is soft and flakes with ease with a mill file.
Cast iron: It produces brittle metal flakes that are easily breakable with a hammer and a cold chisel.
Steel: It is easy to identify steel metal scrap with its hard flakes.
Aluminum, malleable iron, and steel: It produces durable metal flakes that do not break quickly by chiseling.
Scrap metal color
It is easy to categorize some scrap metals by their metal colors. A simple visual test will help to identify the scrap metal. At times these metals are colored or coated, which can make it difficult to identify them with visual tests. One can scrape off the rust or paint to check the original color of the metal.
Metal weight
Another way to identify the scrap metal is by checking its weight. Metals like lead and iron are heavy, while scrap metals like aluminum are light and bend easily.
Metal oxidation
The way a metal piece oxidizes or does not oxidize reveals its chemical composition and type. You can identify scarp metals with their oxidation as follows.
Rusted bronze or copper has a green color.
Iron has red rust.
Stainless steel scrap metal does not oxidize.
Final thoughts
The above guide will help you identify scrap metal. If you want to save potential capital, you can opt for scrap metal from scrap metal suppliers like Vardhman Ferro Alloys, a leading metal scrap supplier in India. The company is also a leading high nickel alloy scrap supplier in India.

December, 2019 Copper, brass, nickel, faux fur, tie-tacks Hair varies; metal rim is 40mm in diameter, 2.5mm thick
A series of three brooches I made for very good friends of mine for Christmas. The three of them are furries, and each brooch contains scraps of faux fur from their specific fur suit.
Since it is not quite socially acceptable to wear a fur suit to most events (business meetings, interviews, funerals, etc.) these aim to serve as the next best thing. It is a subtle nod towards this sub-culture, and as well as a potential secret handshake for those who are also part of the scene.
Funny story about the brooch in the middle: I went to college with the recipient of this brooch, and we both majored in metalsmithing. There was one assignment where everyone had to make a box out of brass sheet metal, and he chose to use an alloy called "Nickel Silver" instead.
For those unaware, nickel silver is a pain in the ass to work with for most applications, but it's a fucking nightmare if you're trying to fabricate it into a large hollow form via flat sheets, using an acetylene torch to braze it. (Colloquially known as "soldering.") One fun quirk of that metal is that it likes to bow and warp in response to being heated up, which is the exact opposite of what you want when making a square box where everything has to be fit together perfectly. But he stuck with it and finished that box. So I made his brooch out of nickel silver as a little in-joke.
(To clarify: I am not a furry. However, a reputable source has assured me that they believe a badger would be my fursona. Take that however you'd like.)

Where there's a whale...
(2d6->7, plus 3 makes 10)
Haebarik watched as humans spread across Incarien, and was pleased. He watched the potters in the east, the traders and warriors in the south, the herdsmen and whalers in the scarcer north.
He watched, with slightly greater concern, the Ebon Priests, as their influence grew in more and more villages, as their instructions fell on receptive ears. Raids became more common, the losers dragged off to work on mysterious constructions. To Haebarik's shock, not all slavers were associated with the priests: some were merely opportunists eager to exploit this new demand for labor. Evil, it seemed, existed not merely in higher beings.
But surely, surely there would always be some humans untouched by that wicked faith?
...perhaps it would be good to make sure of that.
Haebarik extends his arm, reaching higher than birds fly, higher than Eppethikuja may soar, higher than the winds themselves may reach. His dark arm disappears against the void, its inlaid gems substituting for those stars it blots out. At last, his fingers close around a large mass of rock, and he pulls it down to earth.
Those who behold Haebarik's handiwork in the future will explain it such.
During the first day of creation, all things floated in an endless void, and no thing could touch any other thing, and life was impossible. It was then that a god (whose identify is never agreed upon) bestowed weight upon this matter, causing it to fall down into a large pile called the world. But the god missed a few scraps of rock, which still float high above the world, and from time to time he still spots one and sends it down towards the others. This is thus why stars sometimes fall to earth, and their pure and weightless form is what Haebarik used for his avatar.
Maretik! The Void Whale, the Hunger Above, the Envoyager. Some mistake it for a child of Naakrsh, others for a sibling of Ohm. It is none of those things, as its inability to destroy anything real should make clear.
Maretik's hide is a very dark grey, covered in large thumbprint-like indents left over from Haebarik's shaping. Its size is that of a mountain, its maw a small lake, its many eyes a house each. Where one might expect barnacles on a normal whale, Maretik bears boulder-sized clumps of shining iron, nickel, and cobalt, and its baleen are thin wires of the same metals, which may fit to form a perfect seal. Lacking weight, Maretik may swim through the sky and the void beyond, propelled by divine force.
(for the physicists in the audience, model Maretik as lacking gravitational mass but not inertial mass)
When the Void Whale acts, it does so thus:
Fist, it descends singing from its resting-place above the clouds, song echoing for a hundred miles, evoking images of vast stretches of nothingness, of large hollow things, of great yawning voids. Some flee, at this, others are paralyzed with dread, others yet understand, somehow, that they need not be afraid, and wait with peaceable calm.
Then, the Whale arrives, blanketing the land in its shadow. The song ends; there is a moment of quiet and darkness, and then its maw opens. Beyond lies a cavernous space, lit by the soft glow of starlight (for at the dawn of time, a few cowardly rays fled Velarië's anvil and found shelter in this rock).
Then the maw closes, engulfing all that which it came for. The Whale departs, leaving only a miles-long gorge in the land. In time, it will fill and become just another lake.
And what of its cargo? They find themselves unharmed: carried along their homes and stores, their ancestral soil, their tools and weapons. The journey's duration is impossible to tell, but none go hungry or thirsty, and all experience a comfortable calm.
Then, the maw opens once more, bright sunlight flooding the Whale's gut. The contents are expelled, no worse for the wear than a few cuts or scrapes. While the transplanted mortals are still getting their bearings, the Whale is already returning to the void: never again will it visit this place.
As the settlers sift through their expelled belongings, they may find things that never were theirs: leftover possessions from past transplants, treasures from abandoned and devoured places, plants and beasts from strange lands, and weirder things still, things that drift through the heavens as Maretik does, swallowed absentmindedly and now free once more.

tainless steel, aluminium, and brass
Recycling metals is an essential part of creating a sustainable future. Among the many recyclable materials, stainless steel, aluminium, and brass stand out due to their versatility, durability, and recyclability. By recycling these metals, we conserve natural resources, reduce energy consumption, and minimize environmental impact. Let’s dive into the benefits and processes of recycling these valuable materials and how you can contribute to the cause.
Stainless Steel Recycling: Durable and Eco-Friendly
Stainless steel recycling is a key component in promoting environmental sustainability. This robust material is widely used in construction, automotive, and household applications due to its resistance to corrosion and strength.
Why recycle stainless steel?
100% Recyclable: Stainless steel can be recycled indefinitely without losing its quality or properties.
Resource Conservation: Recycling stainless steel reduces the need for raw materials like iron ore, nickel, and chromium, preserving these finite resources.
Energy Efficiency: The recycling process consumes far less energy compared to producing new stainless steel from raw materials.
Recycling stainless steel not only reduces waste but also supports the circular economy. To learn more about how to recycle stainless steel, visit Adelaide Metal Recycling.
Aluminium Recycling: Endless Possibilities
Aluminium recycling is one of the most energy-efficient recycling processes, making it an environmentally and economically viable choice. Aluminium is widely used in packaging, transportation, and construction, and its unique properties make it a valuable resource.
Benefits of aluminium recycling:
Energy Savings: Recycling aluminium uses only 5% of the energy required to produce new aluminium from bauxite.
Infinite Recyclability: Unlike many materials, aluminium doesn’t degrade during the recycling process, allowing it to be reused indefinitely.
Landfill Reduction: Recycling aluminium keeps cans, sheets, and other waste out of landfills, reducing environmental pollution.
Recycling aluminium is a small step that can make a big impact. Learn how you can contribute to a sustainable future with aluminium recycling.
Brass Recycling: Maximizing Value and Sustainability
Brass recycling is another critical part of reducing waste and conserving resources. Brass is commonly used in plumbing fixtures, musical instruments, and decorative items due to its durability and aesthetic appeal.
Why should you recycle brass?
High Value: Brass is a high-value material, making it economically beneficial to recycle.
Resource Conservation: Recycling brass reduces the need for mining copper and zinc, the primary components of brass.
Energy Efficiency: The recycling process consumes less energy than producing new brass, making it an eco-friendly option.
Recycling brass is a win-win for the environment and your wallet. Discover the benefits of recycling brass at Adelaide Metal Recycling.
