I have so many of these things, I've thought about getting a forge to smelt them into ingots.

Forge is for blacksmithing. You want a foundry for smelting.

I have seen enough forged in fire and home smithing videos to know you can also do it in a forge. You just aren't casting them.

Much easier and efficient to put your crucible in a foundry. You also cast ingots.

Billets. Ingots. They're both oblong squares of metal. 🤷‍♂️

Chip off the L-bit and now you have Allen Keys that will fit into any drill chuck

[–] everett@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

Alternatively, keep the L-bit on and now you have one wild drill thingy, and will be feared.

Do it. It's starting to feel like a different kind of mine.
