    I should hope so. This past year, I had someone actually no kidding file my tax return FOR ME! The IRS found it strange I suddenly had a house full of kids with all the goofy deductions and they stopped the refund. I haven't gotten a tax refund in a DECADE!

    Nice job on the emblems David, they came out really clean.

    Does white brass clean up easier than aluminum?

    White bronze is awesome stuff. Its a lot like silicon bronze but a little softer and a little bit lower melt temp, low shrinkage and no fire scaling. Gets a much harder shine than aluminum and is stronger. Very clean casting
    The center bar on this emblem is only .060" thick, in cast aluminum it would break very easily. It will also take on a nickel plated look if left un-coated.
