I've been getting several request for the smelting video so I've skipped forward to a small bit of smelting on the product from the Wash-n-Weigh slideshow. The results were pretty disappointing but the process is demonstrated nicely. The 5.5 gm decayed filter ball ended up as a mere 1/2 gram button. This indicates that the filter contained a fair amount of water weight ( 5 grams = 5 cc )even after drying. This is most likely due to the residual acid drawing water from the atmosphere. Some of the segments were filmed thru a smoke lense to protect my camera so they are necessarily dark.
