By just by allowing the ads to play through this will help out a lot and that’s how I make a bit extra revenue and the good thing is more revenue means more giveaways and more treats for the dogs👊🏻😄.

1950's Milk Vat Meltdown - Awesome Farm Find - Bulk Copper - ASMR Metal Melting - Trash To Treasure

[@bigstackD]

Hello again all you beautiful People . I hope you've had an amazing week and are easing into an even better weekend. A hell of a lot going on today. This breakdown was brutal as you will see. Took me quite a few days and still didn't get it finished, but you'll see what I mean in the video Another awesome donation from my farming friend and a huge amount to add to the stack. So sit back relax enjoy the video but most important be happy and have a great day 😁. Oh and while ive got your attention be sure to share the video with someone if you think they'll enjoy it as that will certainly help the channel crack the 1.5 million sub mark😆. Oh and if you're still here and you are watching from a laptop or PC, why not chuck on one of my longer playlists and simply walk away as that will increase watch time and also help the channel hugely but if not that's cool , thanks for watching and your continued support👊🏻

@@urazatesoglu Im not sure the scrap prices but BigStack does his prices off of current copper values not current copper Scrap values as after its melted into an ingot its definitely no longer scrap copper. I think his value was right on the money as he must have done the copper value yesterday or the day before as the value in this video was 2992TRY but right now its now worth 3000TRY😊😊

I am SOOO HAPPY you added that 5 Monkey Minutes at the end because you didn't show them EVEN ONCE in the video before that..... I was REALLY WORRIED!!! Worried that either something happened and you didn't want us to see them or that you're losing your mind and TOTALLY forgot that you had that awesome lil monkeys in your life!!! lol But I'm SO GLAD you showed them to us like every week!!!

Keep it, it you think it's worth your time. Congrats on the HUGE copper score! All in, that had to one of the biggest yet. Also... Thanks for posting the winter temps. It gives those of us in Texas something to remember fondly while we melt. LOL

[@OmegaPrime76]

Love the Star Trek Voyager opening theme!

[@MrGoesBoom]

Never cared for the show itself, but the opening music was fantastic

[@robinbryde3038]

Keep the scrap...looks useful 😎👍

[@bigstackD]

Actually, you are probably the 20 or 30th person to say that but it was the opening music from Scarface film. I can honestly say I have never seen one Star Trek film or TV show and I avoid Star Wars like the plague after they introduced Jar Jar Binks🤬! Who the hell gave Jaja Binks a green light on such a massive franchise I cannot believe it and it has scarred me for life

[@MrGoesBoom]

@@bigstackD Huh, I've never watched Scarface, but it wouldn't surprise me that Paramount reused the music for an opening. I mean, the opening to Star Trek TNG was just the same score used in the first movie. Learn something new all the time

[@danielcarter305]

@MrGoesBoom actually it was two different scores of music put together for TNG. The Star Trek TMP theme was a little different.

[@trapjohnson]

Best part of late Thursday early Friday is when I look up at the time and realize a BIgStack is about to drop! 0230 was this time's realization, only a half hour of anticipation!

[@michaelsellers4788]

Keep that big piece for sure, good side project, as well as adding more character to the melt yard.

[@danielcarter305]

DAMN!!! BigstackD you have a lot of awsome friends! They are probably happy to have you as a friend as well. They get to get rid of their "junk" and you get plenty of great stuff to melt, and we get to watch you do it!😆😆😆

[@bigstackD]

Yes I have a couple of friends live relatively locally on farms so I will probably be getting bits and pieces like that for sometime to come. I do have another mate who is a guy that does deceased estate but he’s in it for the money so he will sell stuff to me at scrapyard prices, which I understand and accept, but only if it’s interesting for the viewers to see👊🏻😁.

[@j0hnf_uk]

If you have a use in mind for the cast iron plinth, then keep it. It won't be affected by hot or molten metal, for one thing, and if you clean it up and put some protective, heat-proof coating on it, it'll look ok. Once you've finished with it, (or find it's not quite as suitable for the task as you thought), it'll come in handy to put flower pots on, if nothing else! 😁 I suspect there's going to be a _lot_ of slag from doing that aluminium, what with all the dust and dirt between the fins. I imagine, once you reduce it all down, there won't be quite as many ingots from it as you think. The copper melts always look great, of course!

[@loraweems8712]

It's good to know that BigStacked is a Trekkie! Love the "Voyager" theme!

[@animered1986]

Thank you for the puppies at the end, I was almost thinking we were not going to see the boys this week. I really enjoy seeing them 🥰👍👍🍻

[@pixiebrown1959]

Such an interesting melt tonight! What a cool motor to tear down. An original single phase motor with those nasty capacitors 😮😮 full of chemicals! So much copper! Loved it 🎉🎉😊😊 awesome start to the weekend 🎉cheers

[@donaldraaff5537]

I wish I had friends like that. I wish I had space to take stuff like that. I will.

[@jhoff6670]

There's no better friend to have than a farmer. Need something fixed? They either know how to do it themselves or know someone who does.

[@jhoff6670]

Man, I would love to see these machines as they were coming off the assembly line. Fresh paint, bright copper. Bet they were beautiful.

[@heinbadenhorst4079]

Nothing better than chilling in bed whilst watching bigstack

[@liquiddrums42]

One of the best ways to start the friday 🥰 Thanks again BigD! Now to grab a coffee and enjoy the video ☺️

[@TheWabbit]

Keep it. If it doesn't work out, you can scrap it later. Great video. I love to see a good copper melt. That's a good friend, You weren't kidding about it being a job to tear that down. Those copper tubes through the aluminum really tired me out watching you painstakingly get the copper separated from the aluminum! It's 60f ( 15.5C ) this morning in S/E Michigan. USA, a little cool for summer but not by much. We have already hit the 90s ( 32C ) for a high a few days. Take care and have a great weekend, everyone!

I wonder how much aluminum, tin and extra copper it would take to turn 1 Kg of brass into nortic gold (obviously no longer 1 Kg).

[@joshp6061]

You made me curious so I did the math. To get to Nordic gold, which is 89% copper, 5% aluminum, 5% zinc, and 1% tin, from 2.2 pounds (1 kg) of common brass which is 61.5% copper, 35.5% zinc, and 3% lead, you can add 12.5 pounds of copper (that’s over 5x as much as the brass), 0.79 pounds of aluminum, and 0.16 pounds of tin, and you end up with 15.6 pounds of 88.5% copper, 5% zinc, 5% aluminum, 1% tin, and about 0.4% lead. It’s pretty hard to lower the amount of lead but I don’t know how it’ll affect the final alloy. If you try to add more to lower it’s overall percentage, the zinc will drop too much and you’ll have to add more of that, too

[@pizza15x]

@@joshp6061 I didn't realize that brass could have lead in it. Well that's unfortunate.

[@joshp6061]

@@pizza15x not that it can, it just typically does. You could add like twice or thrice as much of everything to lower the lead much more but then you’d have to add some pure zinc too. Can I do the math on that too? What’s an acceptable % of lead, 0.1%? 0.05%?

[@pizza15x]

@@joshp6061 Sure. I would say 0.05%.

[@joshp6061]

@@pizza15x Ok you gotta add a whole lot of copper for that 2.2 lbs brass (1 kg) + 110 lbs copper + 6.3 lbs aluminum + 1.25 lbs tin + 5.5 lbs zinc = 88.9% copper, 5.0% zinc, 0.05% lead, 5.0% aluminum, & 1.0% tin Though you'd only have to add 55 pounds of copper to get the lead down to 0.1%

[@bigstackD]

Yes will do mate I will definitely keep it as the overwhelming response is to keep it and re-purpose it so I’ll have to give it a good cleanup rust proof and get it all Mickey Mouse. I think I’ll keep it neutral colours this time if I asked the group pink always wins so it’ll probably just be a nice flat black or grey so it fits in nicely but that’ll probably be a few weeks away as a bit of work to do inside the house and the other property. Thanks again buddy, I’ll talk with you soon mate, I reckon I’m gonna spend the entire Sunday just cleaning the melting area and trying to tidy one end of the shed and you know how long that take ! I might have to put a lock on the beer fridge and milk the key otherwise I’ll definitely get sidetracked this afternoon 🤦🏻‍♂️
