100 Year Old Motor Melt - Massive Copper Haul - ASMR Metal Melting - Trash To Treasure - BigStackD

[@bigstackD]

Welcome back all you beautiful people to the first melt of the year. What an absolute huge copper melt this was and a massive addition to the stack. Unfortunately, I won't be able to keep up with these size melts all the time but it's a bloody good start that's for sure. Hope everyone had a happy safe New Year and stay tuned for some Interesting melts some chunky monkeys ,magpies, bigsnacks etc 👋🏻😁

[@sarisniper7990]

🤔👍👍This is a good attempt to melt copper through what is called this big furnace with three buckets and also instead of putting the pieces of iron on which you pour the famous copper or make like a scale or a long table or in the middle of your height I mean your waist your feet the level is high and not at ground level any long iron table on which you put these buckets or square pieces of iron on which you pour the famous copper like a table you have this wooden table that you work on but make it another table of iron so that you pour the copper or other molten materials and it is fixed and not on stones my regards

[@sarisniper7990]

👍Place the table that I told you to make from iron and place it near the tree, that is, near the melting of the metal. It will be close to you in the work and easier.

[@sarisniper7990]

I hope you understand what I mean or sorry my writing is not good

[@uptonogoodism]

Earnt your salt this week 😂

[@stevendegonia]

Well, at 41°C, it's hydrate or die-drate! And soda pops and alcohols don't count!

Gotta enjoy watching BigStack Turn into R2D2 when he drops his molds

[@stitch02112012]

Cheers to another year of bigstackD 🎉. Get yourself a cold one on me.

[@bigstackD]

I certainly will buddy cheers for the super thanks much appreciated and I’ll be sure not to waste it on anything silly just the necessities like beer👊🏻😁🍻🍻. Have a great weekend buddy. Thanks again.

Watching this January third in Saskatchewan Canada eight miles from the Alberta border In your video it is 35 degrees Here right now it is minus 25 degrees Love those dogs Love copper melts green flames are so cool

[@Doombot1-68]

When I went to Aus with my uni a few years ago (Bridgestone world solar challenge - I was a driver), our most commonly used phrase was “hydrate or diedrate!” - glad to see 31:27 and 43:01! Happy new year!

[@GrumpyHarleyRider]

Very nice haul there mate! You think that the copper might have been alloyed with something to make it behave like it did? You certainly can't go past those old motors for bulk copper! A shredder certainly would make short work of the copper wire! I'm going to try my hardest to get it made as fast as possible. Have a good one mate. Talk soon. No K&K this week, so you get all the funds again!

[@bigstackD]

Cheers buddy👊🏻😁. what the hell is Kurtis doing? The Lazy bugger . I’ll have to text him and tell him to get his shit together🙄. Which reminds me, I need to call him anyway to see if he still wants to send me all that crap he’s got on his pallet daddy‘s been storing for ages for me🤔 have a great weekend bud

[@janhemmer8181]

Yes, strange indeed. It is like some part of the copper decided halfway to expand while cooling instead of shrinking. I don't know of any metal that behaves like that.

[@xsbiggy6349]

@GrumpyHarleyRider make it a copper granulator, that'd REALLY make his day!

[@chrismedaris4873]

Brother I just wanted to tell you your videos help me deal with my pain and PTSD and you helping me learn to melt means more then I can tell you God bless you your family from me and my family in Arizona

[@ZhunterQld]

Happy new year !

[@bigstackD]

Happy new year buddy And cheers for the super thanks it’s muchly appreciated. Have a great rest of the weekend and speak with you another time 👊🏻😁

[@kjuyfif]

Hey BigstackD! I remove the copper from stators by cutting off one end and using an air hammer to push on the uncut side. It pulled out the copper very easy, with no damage to your hands!! Hope this helps! CHEERS!!

[@dragonman7247]

Happy New Year Mr and Mrs D and of course Bullion and Ingot.

[@brucer2152]

That big furnace is amazing.

Awesome 64th birthday present. Thank you.

[@benwinkel]

Nice of mrs StackD to help you lift the Bigboy.

[@Zabrian]

I always look forward to work on Friday because i get to quietly sit and work while watching and listening to the sounds of metal melting even when i am not melting my own.

[@drzoidberg71]

Watching you try to manhandle that motor out of the trailer using your leg as a brace scared me more than I thought it would. Don't try to act tough for us BSD, just be safe!

[@thegreatestdane8978]

Honestly...agreed initially, I assumed it was less...actual manhandling and more him pushing it out of the trailer, but jesus that was a bit worrying (noting that one of boards on the pallet has broken where that motor was just makes it more worrying).

[@dragonfire300]

Keep in mind, BSD. If you hurt yourself through carelessness, there will be a lot of flights to Australia to beat you up, and Mrs. BSD will be standing by watching the show and eating popcorn

[@DjmMik]

That was a big, old motor melt!! That had to make you a little sore. Hope you and the family had a great holiday season 👍🏻

[@bigstackD]

Yeah mate, we had a great holiday season but were all working still so no real time off but the jobs we have we love so I don’t look at it as Work. Thanks for your ongoing support Much appreciated Dave👊🏻😁. Now I best be off I’m heading to the tip to empty the trailer and while I’m there I normally look through their little shop they have and I have my friend there Put aside a few pewter cups for me so I’m gonna have that in this week’s video, as well as a heap of Other old pieces I pulled out of a shed so it’s definitely a trash to treasure this week👌🏻.

[@MrCydoo]

What a massive melt ! So hot in Australia! Happy new year to you and Mrs Stack ^^

[@John-q3d8m]

Excellent all the best to all you lovelies out there. I live in Aus in Victoria. Nice to see this material especially as old as this, being regenerated. Cheers John.

That is a heckin' chonky heap of copper! New power tool idea: hand-held band saw (if you can find one that is big enough to handle these hefty motors)

[@granthagen2996]

Happy new years, mate. Brings me back to the days when you were in the old garage, snagging at whatever dust and particles of metal you could. Bullion and Ingot, in the back yard. And now look at us, years and years later. Good days ahead, aye?

[@Nobe_Oddy]

I have a feeling this one ugly motor is actually gonna be THE LARGEST HAUL OF COPPER OUT OF ANY MOTOR YOU'VE EVER DONE!!! It's not that big but I'll bet it had a TON OF TORQUE!!!! - What an AMAZING FIND!!! Plus I hope you keep ALL OF THAT CAST IRON!!!! - ALL OF IT!!!! lol Seriously... just to have some to make stuff with over time... I LOVE Cast Iron melts!!! - - OH YEA!!! We can't forget ALL THAT BEAUTIFUL BRASS TOO!!! - WOW!! This is one of the best hauls I think you got from a motor! It's definitely the BEST Pound-for-Pound (or I guess you'd say Kilo-for-Kilo .... meaning you got the best value per Kilo/Pound) - WHAT A GREAT MOTOR!!! - AN AMAZING WAY TO START OFF 2025!!!!!

Hey big stack... From Germany.. I have been told there are great copper mines in Australia.... Now one of them is located in your yard... No big dozers and excavators needed.... Good job...

[@AlexanderPoprawa]

You know, before i started watching your video's i've never really heard of AEG's tools. A few weeks back i bought my first ever set of power tools in my life from them with the intention to use them for knifemaking. So in case if you or anyone else was wondering, your unpaid advertisment works 😂

Interesting, what country do you live in? Here in Australia, AEG power tools have been around for years. German company. Used to make good quality tools "Made in Germany" - not sure where they are made now though.
