    God Bless you Ian, I have been in a similar situation with my Grandson, Diagnosed with Cancer at 2 years old. I prayed and prayed so hard to save his life and take me in his place. I'm still here and so is my Grandson who is a huge strapping lad and works for a security firm. I will have Glynn and Ivy in my prayers tonight and hope he hears me again. God Bless them both. P.S. She has your nose mate lol.

    lol great video suggestions, make yourself another smaller mould like u have for alley to use for your copper. Get some graphite powder u can get it online quite cheep or, smash a few pencils up so that the graphite goes to dust. U can use this by putting a dusting in your copper mould The copper should not stick then. Also let us know what the anvil yard classifies it as I get number 2(my yard xrfed it before they would take it) but now they know me they take it.

    😂😂😂You made a right meal of that old lad. BigstackD is the best for melting vids on KZread. I don’t know whether you know but preheating moulds is necessary when pouring copper as you might get a steam explosion if not. Sorry if you already knew this. Keep the vids coming chief. 👍🏻
