A Investment of 1000 you could buy a Propane Gas Furnace 600 oz Gold Melting Capacity Smelting Portable Silver Copper | eBay then you could sell to the public Copper Bullion Bar 2 | eBay . I have not taken the chance - But figure you could sell at a great premium But heck can you imagine the work and time to melt 1000#
