CASTING A KEY🔑 START TO FINISH

This video shows how I made a pattern, molded it, cast it, and cut it to fit an antique lock from start to finish. I hope you enjoy it!
Here is a link to Michael Porters book on burner building:

I have started a gardening channel to keep my casting separate. If you enjoy gardening, join me there.

Try chocolate casting by pouring chocolate syrup into a mold and putting it into the fridge or freezer

[@backyardmetalcasting]

That's a sweet idea.

Very cool! I'd love to try this myself - when I was little I always pictured my home with secret doors and passageways, like a Nancy Drew book. If I could make my own key/lock combos, there'd be no stopping me! LOL

[@tobhomott]

It's not the size of your rammer that matters, it's how you use it! J/k, great job!

[@ChirpysTinkerings]

looks good, itsnt the keys made of some sort of manganese bronze? I was curious what alloy since they're designed to be very rigid and strong.

[@backyardmetalcasting]

Chirpy's Tinkerings the more expensive keys are nickel silver...im not sure of the alloy

[@ChirpysTinkerings]

after looking around, Ive discovered that alot of the modern day keys are a silicon bronze. The old ones were made of a high zinc brass, but most modern ones are the silicon bronze. Ive never found any that were nickel silver tho.

[@OurHauntedTravels]

Great stuff here! This is awesome... loved how you showed your process... very interesting. How often do you have to do these custom keys like this? 👻👻👻

[@backyardmetalcasting]

PANICdVideos - Our Haunted Travels not very often. I've only melted metal a couple times in the last few years. Here is my web page that goes some pirate keys I made. www.backyard-foundry.com/pirate-keys-cast-in-aluminum.html?no_redirect=true

[@UnapologeticallyGomes]

Do you have 2 channels? Or am I confusing you with someone else.... At any rate, I liked, subscribed and turned on my notifications. LOL!! Looking forward to your videos.

[@backyardmetalcasting]

Yes! I started this channel with metal casting then I started to do gardening videos...so I made another channel to be more focused on gardening. So I haven't worked on this channel for years...but it is monetized. I have a couple videos that do extremely well. One is on how to drill a well and the other is on how to make a burner for a metal melting furnace. It seems like the how to videos work really well for me. I'm going to make a soap making video for my gardening channel... I thunk it will do well. It only takes a video or two that really take off to grey things rolling. I daze a gardening video today where a guy did a collaboration with a huge gardener and gained 20,000 in one day. Can you imagine that?
