How Do You Make An Aluminum Bat?
To make an aluminum will need special equipment and high specialized skills. However, while not everyone can make an aluminum bat in their garage, it is interesting to learn how to make an aluminum bat, especially if you are a fan of the sport of baseball. Buy a steel mold that is shaped for an aluminum bat. This mold will be designed to create a hollow bat design. This type of mold is preferable to a die cast or a sand cast mold for aluminum bats because it allows you to create a thinner bat wall, which in turn creates a lighter weight bat. Melt your raw aluminum by heating it in a smelter up to at least 1220.581 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the melting point for aluminum. Once the aluminum is molten you will pour it into the baseball bat mold. Make sure you wear heat resistant gloves, a heat resistant apron and safety goggles. Allow the aluminum to set up in the mold and cool down. This will take at least a day. Once cooled you can open the mold and remove the rough aluminum bat. Plac
