HOW TO MIRROR FINISH A BAR
I start with an 80 grit flap disc on my angle grinder then I use my drill with 50 mm round sanding discs . I start with 150 grit then go through the following Grits 240-400-800 Then once I get to the following Grits I use a small squirt of WD-40 1200-1500-2000-2500-3000. The WD40 helps to lubricate the discs and stops the sanding disk binding up with the metal powder . Then after that I use my buffer wheel on my bench grinder to get a perfect mirrored finish on it.

[@bigstackD]

I get so many comments on people wanting to see more nordic gold so that's just what today is all about. Nearly 7 kg added to the stack which is great and Friday brings me one week closer to the new place where I will be building a designated treasure room complete with dungeon style door👍🏻. Hoping to be in the new place next month so I can finally spread out all my toys. Anyway enough jabbering thanks for watching and have yourself an absolutely sensational weekend and see you all next Friday for another sneaky melt from something inside the house🤫

[@lbvtmanl]

I hope you give us a tour of everything as soon as you can

[@MonK3YMan1000]

Have a great weekend mate.

hi! have a nice day!

[@DogeMultiverse]

Wow! Finnaly our results quests has been heard!

[@JoDidntHearYou]

my favorite things about bigstackD videos: 1. watching the metals melt in the forge 2. the sound the forge makes when I have my earbuds in 3. the sounds it makes when bigstack cuts and smashes all the metal tubes 4. getting to sit and relax on a Friday night with a new bigstack video 5. puppies Thank you for all your hard work and for bringing the internet joy!

Found him like a year back, been doing the same, its just fantastic fun to watch.

[@MrGoesBoom]

Same, I forget just when I started but around the same time. Been a highlight of my Fridays ever since I started. Just the way he does stuff, his sense of humor, the times he decides to do something a little fun instead of just bars ( and don't get me wrong, I love all the melts ) just a really fun channel and I hope he keeps going even after hitting his goal

Have I ever thought about trying this? Because of your motivation, I built my own, "backyard," version of the furnace out of a steel bucket (not as efficient so purchase one for just a little more cost). I made Nordic Gold ingots and stamped them individually as a Christmas gift to my family members. Unique and awesome experience. It amazes me how awesome molten metal looks and works when pouring. 1 tonne coming soon! Keep melting.

[@connor_ono3611]

TKOR made a video on how to make that but there like 5 years ago.

[@Russ3403]

I have to say your KZbin channel is definitely in my top three favorite. I'm a long time watcher and have enjoyed every video. I like the fact that there is no talking ie explaining what you're going to do for 15 minutes. Keep up the great work and have a good weekend.

Dude its because of you I'm that dude that comes into the food lion every other day to get propane. I lost my dad last Christmas to covid and came across one of your videos and now where my dad and me would sit and drink coffee in morning I now sit here and watch my own green flame.

[@battinakiran6056]

Sorry for your dad

[@chelseakuzel6556]

I love watching your videos!!! I always get a laugh when you grab your food from random places. Ingot and Bullion are as cute as ever! Thank you for all the hard work you put into these works of art! Can’t wait to see you hit your 1 tonne goal!!

[@BilalKhan-pd5xb]

it is always satisfying to see how metals although look tough can be melted into something totally different and so beautiful. support from India!!

[@spikewillow4552]

I love the colour it is as soon as you opened up the mould ! Then when its polished up 👀🥰 Nordic gold is by far me fav, Thanks for sharing n have an awesome weekend 🤟

[@hordegaming4771]

One of my favourite things to do is whenever there's a campfire or any kinda fire, throw copper powder in it so it'll light up green. So cool looking especially at night when all of a sudden the whole place is now light up green lol. Best way to make copper powder is just file it down with sand belt into a jug grab a handful and throw it in some flames. It'll look so amazing trust me.

[@kn8tronbomb]

And then when the fire goes out watch BigStackD show up with his paintbrush and dustpan to sift through the ashes to recover the copper :)

[@jon131]

i think my favorite is the slag/dust remelts. i can't wait for that to happen. seeing that jar getting filled up is pretty exciting lol

[@josh865]

I haven't seen anything that beautiful since my first born came into this world... Wonderful piece of craftsmanship!

[@burntsilverado]

Love how you and cutting edge engineering aus always upload around the same time. Would love to see a collab. You cast something for him to machine down.

[@ben_hell4437]

I'd love to see you use a mill to get perfectly smooth sides. It might be worth investing. The cubes look awesome

[@bigstackD]

Yes when I get my bigger place I’m definitely gonna keep my eye open for a nice big milling machine . Hopefully they’re not too expensive for a secondhand one 🤔

[@IveysFamilyFactotum]

One of these days you could possibly look into getting a mill for surfacing your bars down. Always great seeing my favorite alloy being made...great work bud.

[@crepps]

You definitely inspired me to start doing this. Been going for about 4 months now. You're also inspiring me to possibly create content and document my process and journey. The biggest drawback is doing this in the middle of summer 🥵 I definitely have to remain hydrated!

[@xpeHavblcoro]

Hey, bro. You should move the lid handle to the side, at right angles to the loop. Its safer this way and youre less likely to get burned ✊️

Neat! Metal melting and casting is something (in hindsight) I wish I could have gotten into with my Dad back in the 80s or 90s. He's still around but long retired now

[@timsmith9645]

Awesome Nordic gold cubes thanks for sharing bigstackd

[@vincedibona4687]

Those looking like huge dice got me thinking- could you cast a full set of “D&D” dice? One 4-sided, one 6-, one 8-, _two_ 10-, and one 20-sided die is the perfect set, with one of the 10- sided die being numbered 1-10 and the other 00-90. I imagine you can just use your numbering dies to punch those in afterwards. If you do it. Thanks! That ice-block smash was epic, and I loved how long the cube just sat in there stewing. Oh, and while both dogs are adorable, I will always like Ingot best. Not only was he first, but his whole demeanor is just tops. But I’d pet him and Bullion all day long!

[@xanthpuns]

You need to stamp 1-6 on them that way you can say you got the biggest golden dice around

[@lordkjwilliams]

What I understand is, when hot liquid metal is poured in a ingot mould, it contracts as it cools, forming a crystallization in the surface while forming a depression on the top. This crystallization process happens naturally through out the ingot as it cools. However, if you expedite the cooling process by sticking the ingot on a block of ice or in a bucket of water, you loose the natural crystallization process. When a manufacturer of knives uses Damascus steel ( which is nickel steel and carbon steel in layers ) they let the knives naturally cool because the crystallization strengthens the bonding between the two types of metals after they are shaped in their final form. Now what I dont get, is that on another KZbin channel such as, "Shurap", demonstrates a heat treatment by simply sticking the Damascus knife into a oven for some time, and later pulls it out. This is similar process seen on another channel such as, "Alex Steele", where his videos, show the use of a oven, of a conventional kitchen stove is used to do this as well. However, either way - this does not change the crystallization of the Damascus steel since its not being reheated to a melting point - so why is it a necessary process for handcrafting a knife in this way? Please correct me if I am wrong.

[@RTFManuel]

there are like three different forms steel can have ... one is called martensite, look that up on youtube and you should find your answers

[@lewisgiles8855]

The crystallization formation is done long before the ingots goes on ice here and does nothing other than drop the temperature and look awesome!

[@chrisbrown-bg4gf]

Finally got my Friday fix! It seems to me that different metals have different "thickness " to them. Copper looks like water when being poured, but that Nordic gold looked thicker. Am I correct or way out in left field?

[@lewisgiles8855]

You're up the right alley. They definitely have different consistencies like aluminum is more blobby. Also the temperature has a little to do with it the same metal can be slightly different depending on that

[@filipeq2292]

I'm still wondering what are you gonna do bigstackD after you reach the goal of having 1 tonne of metals. Are you gonna stop melting metals, make another goal or what?
