Welcome back to another Friday video where today I had a very generous donation from an Aussie subscriber and I melt down the 1.3 kg of silver he donated as well as a few kilos of copper. These would definitely be the ugliest copper bars I have ever poured and seen but they're still welcome with open arms into the stack. I didn't worry about cleaning up the silver pieces as in my new place I'll set up the new kiln and start learning the lost wax/pla casting for more intricate pieces. Let's see how I go. Now sit back relax take it easy , I hope you enjoy today's video and as always have an awesome weekend and see you all next Friday for my sewage pump panel meltdown👌🏻😁

One thing that always gives me a little smile is how friendly bigstackD's videos are to new viewers. How many times have regular viewers seen "cardboard under crucible stops firebrick sticking", yet he still titles it in. Had he stopped doing that because "oh my viewers know by now", new viewers wouldn't know some of these handy tricks. :) Keep being you bigstackD. Keep being you.

If you do silver again, you should keep a torch blowing inside the mold to keep the silver melted until you finish the pour. Your ingots will come out more solid and the crystalization of the silver will be even more beautiful. Love the videos and have for over a year, bigstackD! Thanks for the amazing and relaxing content as always. ❤️🙏 And yes, the vicious guard dogs are adorable as well. 🥰 edit: Now that I've looked at the copper part of the video, and I love the longer video formats you are doing now, the red copper ingot is because it was the last pour with the most impurities that were floating atop the molten metal, it could have also retained a small amount of oxygen due to the impurities present. That red color should hopefully be superficial though. Also, heating your mold during the pour would keep those air bubbles from getting in and provide a better pour like I mentioned before. And a good way to clean copper is just let it soak in a solution of white vinegar and salt for about 30 minutes and only "scrub" any holes or divots with a toothbrush instead of a power tool. You'll have a much more beautiful finish when done. Hope you give my comment a little look! Extremely big fan here! Drink one for me during your next melt! 🍻

(220kg - 450kgish) I'm allowed to grab some of the copper scrap, so its made the process remarkably easier.

There's something I've always been curious about - if you fill a mold and then place a sheet of similar metal as the mold on top before it hardens (like if you're capping the mold I guess) when it cools would it be perfectly flat or would it still have the sink?? I'm really curious about that huge kiln thing you have there - can't wait to see how you use it.

Almost all materials shrink when they freeze, including metals. (The most common exception is water, which expands). Even castings done in fully enclosed molds will shrink. Putting a "cap" on the mold won't stop the metal from shrinking. The most common solution for this issue is to create "risers" which are open shafts extending upwards from the mold. If done correctly, excess molten metal flows up into the risers during the pour, then, as the casting cools, the excess metal in the risers moves down to fill the gaps left by shrinkage. The metal left in the risers are cut off the finished casting.

9:20 happy that you checked the price of your Sterling sort from the non-sterling. I thought those coins were worth more than the bar.

Either way the price value of the metal would not reflect what he could sell those coins for, I imagine he might get twice or more than an ebay listing for a Perth mint coin, just because his channel is famous and his coins are unique.

To answer the question on why the one bar of red copper while the rest are more orange -- Copper has 2 common (stable) types of oxidation. Copper II Oxide is the black stuff, and is formed when very high temperature copper is exposed to air. Copper I Oxide is the more red-orange stuff produced at slightly lower temperatures when exposed to air. My bet, as you used the mould over and over and warmed it up, it slowed down the cooling enough to allow Copper Oxide I to easily form all over the bar. Cool stuff! Fun fact, Copper I Oxide is actually photovoltaic -- it can produce electricity like a solar panel. :)

My Friday alarm is set at 0330 AM, Oregon, USA, so I can get up and start my day right. Greate melt and love the boys. Friday is when my girls (dogs) and I go to A&W for their bowl if ice cream. I am a simi-scraper but take my scrap to the sell at the recycler. Keeps me busy at 75 and I make a few dollars along the way.

Amazing work mate. What a nice gesture from the donor to have given you those little silver balls. Those copper ingots appeared to be Gruyere cheese. 😂😂😂 139 kg and you reach the finish line, let's see that there is less and less to go. Big hug for you and your two boys from Argentina 🇦🇷

Okay... So i am finally catching up (after seeing you recently made a vault room 😍.... -whispers- about time, man 🙄😁) and i gotta say... Seeing you work with silver... Freaking Yes. Seeing the look on little Bullie's face saying you need to melt more.... Freaking YES! 🤣 ah, man.... Those dogs are so adorable and awesome. Going to try to binge on your videos so I can finally catch back up to current melts. Tonnes of love to you and yours, my brother. #StackD4Life

Thats a lot of silver...dang!! Pretty stuff. I was more interested in the copper heat exchanger. I was given one a while back and it seemed like a good idea. I melted it and it came out really bad!! Exactly they way that these came out. It I think the solder they use to put them together? Not sure, Only thing I know is I tried to remelt it and clean it up. I remelted and when I scooped it COMPLETELY oxidied every time I scooped. I scooped and scooped and it all became useless slag. It was wild. I would keep that stuff seperate from your normal stack BIG D! But I only know that because you inspired me to pick up the hobby. BIG thanks for that. Cheers, keep them coming:)
