Scrapyard Motor Melt Down - Zinc Copper Aluminum - Trash To Treasure - ASMR Metal Melting BigStackD

[@bigstackD]

Good morning good evening good afternoon to everyone wherever you are on this crazy planet. In today’s video a quick trip to the scrapyard for a mini motor and it wasn’t quite enough to satisfy me so I also poured over 60 zinc coins in my new molds. So sit back relax and enjoy today’s long video. And I’ll see you sensational people next Friday 😁👋🏻.

Not only loved the process, how beautiful your pieces turned out, and how you teach all the tips and precautions you take, but how nice you seem without even talking. How you treat your dogs (btw they are ADORABLE) , how you cared about the little bee, your unicorn notebook 💖. Instantly subed. Your workshop looks amazing too, I wish I had a space like that!

I am glad you have found yourself a hobby in this crazy world - ( especially in a once great country - Australia) this will take your mind off the world troubles. It is obvious to me that you have a heart of gold too (-no pun intended), the way you present yourself and your care for animals - well done ! If only there were more people like you around.

KZbin just found me this channel recently, and I'm addicted. I love the fact that you keep repeating things like, heat your tools, heat your mold, wear a respirator, gloves, etc. Keep'n safety on everyone's mind. Means that everyone that comes into the channel wherever, can pick up what you're putting down. My wife loves Bullion and Ingot.

[@Hellsong89]

You can easily find scrap metals in any area, just keep eye out and talk to people, let them know you are interested in broken tools, machines etc what happens to be your cup of tea and soon you are flooded with materials. I just hope people take good look what they are about to scrap, since absolute ton of things that land on my scrap yard and i see on this area are ether fully functional or require just minor repair. People throw away ridiculous sums of money for not learning how to fix simple stuff and being just out right lazy, so first check whats wrong with the device, then check how much it costs to repair, then what ever it is worth the repair based on utility value and then decide what ever you scrap it for materials or fix for your self or to be sold/gifted away for those who need one. Say old tractor, sure its clonker and needs tons of maintenance witch it has lacked for yours, but i would never scrap one, how ever bad condition it is, since it can be sold as parts machine or collect few and repair it to back in operation. If use is small like in home stead old tractor is worth its weight in gold, since new machines cost arm and a leg, still being worse quality than the old machines. For instance i rarely require bulldozer on my home stead, but its only machine that can do certain things in here like move huge rocks around, so it would be awesome to get cheap old machine regardless how much wear and tear it has long as it somehow operational. Also i dont find scrapyards that valuable thing to have since they know exact value of metals at that moment, so you still will be paying scrap value of it, just need to burn gas etc work to get material, but sure its better to require them your self like that, than go buy new material if you do castings etc.

He is not a blacksmith tho. Blacksmiths forge items with hammers etc. from stock metals. This is quite literally the very opposite of blacksmithing.

@@ShadowManceri you don’t know if he isn’t for a fact. He could do blacksmithing in his free time for all you know.

[@ShadowManceri]

@@Sam-fq5hc He doesn't even have the tooling. Even calling himself a smelter is big leap. Smelters actually purify the metals. This is just a melting stuff.

[@dynamicpaintball]

@@ShadowManceri ...and what is he doing when he scrapes slag from the top of the molten metal..? Oh ya, removing impurities. Filtering impurities is the easy part of casting almost any metal, separating alloys and working with media that's only plyable at 2000+ degrees is the tricky part.
