thanks for the replies, they have all been enlightening. hopefully we will move ahead with this process in the next few months. But it seems more questions are being raised. Oh weel, always enjoy a challenge.

I work for an NGO (mines advisory group - MAG | Mines Advisory Group) in Vietnam that is involved in removing and destroying bombs dropped by the US during the Vietnam War. Currently we destroy the bombs in controlled explosions, however, we have access to technology that will turn the bombs into free from explosive scrap metal. I am wanting to turn this scrap metal into items such as hoes etc, to be used by the local populace, which will be made as part of a vocational training course. As my organisation's skills lie in destroying bombs, we do not have the techinical capacity to turn bombs into useful implements. I was hoping someone could advise on a low tech, relatively cheap way of smelting high quality steel to pour into cast molds. Alternatively there may another method of getting the end result that I am unaware of. Thanks.
