This question is supplementary to the following [LEGO™ as a defence against barefoot warriors](https://worldbuilding.stackexchange.com/questions/184560/lego-as-a-defence-against-barefoot-warriors)

One answer suggests making weapons and other artifacts by melting and moulding LEGO plastic (ABS).

Is this in fact possible using only neolithic technology?

**Concerns**

1. There are no metal containers during the neolithic
2. ABS thrown on a fire will burn before it has time to melt and form a puddle
3. I don't know if neolithic pottery could be used as containers for melting and moulding. If so, could they protect against the plastic catching alight?
