It took me a while to sort out the anagram at 1 across. There’s a minor typo at 18 across – should be ‘K’ for king. Also, I thought 3 down was a container: succesSISALways. Also, for 5 down you parsed this correctly but wrote in ‘TAKES UP’ rather than ‘TAKES ON’

I’ve never heard of CAST STEEL previously, only CAST IRON but it was nice to know thet I had guessed correctly.

Also, many thanks Fishpok – which is how I pronounce your otherwise unpronounceable alias.
