Melting Copper - Backyard Bullion - ASMR Metal Melting - Huge Copper Bar - BigStackD Casting

[@bigstackD]

Hey guys how is everyone this week? Super simple video with some corroded copper bars, everyone loves copper and it’s definitely one of my favourites to melt. Sit back relax and turn your brain off for the next 17 minutes and as I say in my description have a great weekend and I’ll see you all next week👍🏻😆

[@nikpoura]

I smelt gold as a living in a gold mine. I reccommed you use some flux such as borax, soda ash and silica it will reduce the amount time the metals take to melt down and protect them from oxidisation.

from what l read 40 years ago..... those chemicals reduce the gas bubbles that form while pouring. So l agree with Engineer

Nice and proper out of an old propane tank. Anyway, I was melting copper...it was quite cool out. A bit of snow. I learned that day that a body needs to preheat the copper bits before tossing them into the pot....condensation....that bit of water will cause a mini explosion....seeing you preheat your copper bits reminded me of that. Lesson learned. Great video. I enjoy a good copper melt as well.
