Hey guys and gals how are all you awesome people doing this fine Friday? Today something a little bit different than my usual blocks and bars where I sand cast something I thought would be interesting from a heap of bullet shell casings I got from the scrapyard , A few Star Wars pieces as well as a movie prop from one of my favourite childhood films The Goonies 👌🏻Now sit back take a break and I hope to see you all next Friday😀👋🏻

I recommend doing it if it's something you're interested in man. Even just a hobby or a once awhile thing there's no better time than now. Also if your wife is pushing you to do it she knows enough that you'll be good and enjoy it. Plus it could be extra $$ for you if you need it. But honestly my advice don't put off your desires or keep saying one day because you might not get the opportunity to fulfill them. Trust me man I know firsthand there's so many things like this and machining I'd love to do but I'll never get the opportunity due too a severe injury leaving me paralyzed with little arm movement. So if you have the opportunity don't miss it you never know what could happen and hopefully never does.

Question for you. If brass is overheated and zinc oxide is formed, does that effect the composition of the brass? Does it require adding zinc the next time you cast with the remaining brass? I casted some bells, my first bell looked much like brass should, but the second bell looked more copperish. I've been searching for a resource of information regarding brass casting. Thanks for your time. Loved the ammo shell melting video!

Yes, you'll definitely cook off some zinc. Potentially a fair amount since the melting point of zinc is so much lower than copper. All the zinc that converts into the white oxide isn't available as the raw metal any more.

Goonies, Ghostbusters and Raiders of the Lost Ark... in that order. I'll still wear the Goonies out watching it! I even made a shadow box with a replica map, and 3d printed doubloon and copper bones - a real metal copper bones and doubloon would be awesome! I'm working on Chester Copperpot's license and newspaper article now. I really enjoy watching your videos! Thank you.

Hey bigstackD, thank you for this. It combines pretty much all of my passions, got a question though, I’m looking into getting into this, but to make pens, is it possible to make round stock from a melt like this? Your videos are always so relaxing! So happy to see that Ingot and Bullion have play buddies!

@bigstackD 2 жыл бұрын
Yes you certainly could make round stock for sure if you check out this video below you could simply do it exactly like I am but on a smaller scale and that way you could choose the diameter of your round stock to go straight on the lathe👌🏻. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp2umZmYo9KLmtU I do apologise for the editing on this video as it was done about four years ago when I first started👍🏻

I don’t actually sell the furnaces myself the company is owned and run by my friend and he is based in Lithuania but don’t be discouraged mate as the furnaces are made with the highest quality material. If you email me on this email below I can send you the appropriate discount links as well as a heap of other info to get you started , I can’t send it through comments as it’s too much info. And you can check out the American link and have a look at what’s on offer👍🏻 if for some reason you lose track of this comment just check out my description on any of my videos and there will be my email address there as well bigstackddddd@mail.com

I can't appreciate the tips enough. I was thinking of shell casing melt next. Loved the ice smash! Those Star Wars Armada pieces came out really well. 👌 Star Wars (original), Back to the Future, and Indiana Jones (original) have been my all-time favorite films. Those casting frames are called "flasks"? When will you make some metal ones like your friend swdweeb?

One of my favorite childhood films is BMX bandits, which was filmed in New South Wales. And yes, that's a very young Nicole Kidman in the film. A bit of a low-budget film considering her stunt double was merely wearing a lousy wig!

Got it "painted" and can't wait to fire it up on my next day off. Got a few feet of braided aluminum wire from a friend at the power company I can't wait to melt. Thanks again for the advice and the discount. Happy Melting.
