Makes a pretty sculpture!! Wonder where one gets the aluminum and how to melt it. I always have several anthills in my pasture every summer.

When I was a kid, we were doing that, but used lead from car batteries. The ant hills were made by red ants and were much larger. The tunnel systems were more spread out than the one in the video and it didn't take a lot of lead to fill the hole. They required a lot more careful digging and some had a depth of three feet.
