On your head be it ...

I have sucessfully melted aluminium on a ceramic electric kitchen cooker
hob in a stainless steel cooking pan with a glass lid. IIRC magnesium has a
similar mp.

I'm in the UK though, and we have proper electricity (240V) here.

I am also based in the UK, I never gave thought to an electric element based
setup, obviously outside and well away from anyone or anything! I still
reckon a charcoal fire would be the cheapest and quickest option.

Saw your sig. Were you at K-Lob? I'm the turbopump guy.
