Fun fact: JerryRigEverything tested the silver play button for the elements it contained, and it is actually 100% nickel plating with a nickel/copper alloy core. The gold one has some gold plating - like 20% gold 80% nickel.

two years ago I came for the minecraft but I stayed for the gology. Nice work Cody.

[@chrisgadarowski9946]

Some English dudes I have heard in podcasts on science actually pronounce "geology" as "gology".

[@theyogbros7733]

+Chris Gadarowski I was worried more about the way I spelled it, not its pronunciation.

[@basementhermit3607]

+Chris Gadarowski I'm English and I've never heard anyone say "gology" instead of "geology". Maybe we just say the "geo" part faster than you guys.

[@brillweb101]

I appreciate the raw guts of the making of this video, Your not trying to bullshit your viewers and for that i thank you

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Not one for metal refining videos, but good on you for making your own! Congrats on 250k subs and beyond! I hope you get your official play button soon.

[@noxy9518]

$250k subs?

[@wallacesi9633]

+Yet Another Car Show $250k subs?

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Oops. Not sure why I put the dollar symbol. Just gonna edit that real quick. lol

[@HeckinTeagan]

+Wallace Si 250,000 subscribers. the dollar sign is a typo

[@rock962000]

HOLY SHIT! I used to watch this guys videos when he was making gun powder from urine and mining minerals from his own mine. I'm happy to see his channel excel. Definitely a very humble and nice guy.

[@damienschneider3607]

Yea same here, I enjoyed all 6 of his videos when I first found him, and then honestly forgot about the channel until it was randomly recommended. Now its a damn full blown channel lol

[@gucciversace5101]

Make a diamond play button when you hit a million subscribers.

[@Asprant]

Gucci Versace there's one for 10 million now, must be expensive

[@bsvenss2]

Alan Kurdee - Why? The silver play button has no silver in it and the gold play button has only a thin gold plating.

[@Asuhhdude]

Infinite loop the gold button is gold and mostly nickel

[@bruhcringe4912]

Infinite loop cuz there are so many youtubers with 1 million subs to make a full gold play button for everyone that has 1 million subs would make Google poor

[@crsshl]

+Alan Kurdee (Asprant) expensive? pewdiepie receive ruby award for 50 milion subc.. but thats not real ruby.. just a little little tiny ruby in there... youtube made a play button with real emerald and real ruby, for reach 1.000.000.000 subcriber

[@imvincentgao]

And I'm still at 124 subs. Years away from your amount. Cries. LOL

[@patar3323]

Did I just watch that ant walk onto your hand with no reaction?

[@georgecataloni4720]

His hands are probably too calloused to feel a little ant lol

[@Fuutor]

Yea, from all the work he must have insanely rough skin. Especially the mining 'n shit.

[@mairisberzins8677]

Look for video where he extracts bees from shed of some place, and in end of video he tells that his hand was stung by bees more than enough to hurt. Im pretty sure those bees made his hand not feel anything

[@Gabriel-qx7pw]

Oh no an ant that is so baaddd...... Patar, srsly?? just I dont even know what to say, what is wrong with this generation

[@patar3323]

The same thing that was wrong with your generation. Progression. It's not an unknown.

[@BrianFedirko]

this entire concept is so beautiful on every level. good for you man, and congrats. thanks for the teaching too!!

[@Cyzos1]

4:17 "... And, because I need slightly more gold, my wife's ring."

[@kimberlygillen4783]

*silver

[@Johnyknowhow]

+tyh sryth If that ring was his wife's, I feel bad for her. Looks like a ring he tried to forge himself and failed at, but kept anyways.

[@danielamatakova88]

it's not his wife's ring bruuuhhh

[@kimberlygillen4783]

well, first, it was a silver ring... and second, he says it was a ring he made that was way too small for anyone to wear so he was going to melt it down...

[@golfcartsnogolf4028]

Thanks for the great videos Cody! I enjoy and learn from watching failures as much as much as successful attempts. I was a custom jewelry maker for many years (I just do it for fun now). Silver is much more difficult to cast than gold of platinum, even with a proper silica mold material, good flux, a centrifugal casting machine and an induction heater sliver still cast with a lot of porosity. A propane or natural gas torch with a reducing flame worked just as well as an induction heater, so your thought of dissolved oxygen might be the cause of the porosity that always seems to happen. My best silver castings were done by heating the silver fast, casting fast and air cooling for a few minutes before quenching in a water bath.

[@theCodyReeder]

+Golf Carts no Golf! question; will adding copper help? is that why things are made of sterling rather than fine?

[@nikolatesla1679]

+Cody'sLab dude i freakin love your videos id love to be able to do the things your doing but i cant due to my location

[@biggametex]

+Cody'sLab Yes. in my experience adding an alloying metal helps 1000%. there are some awesome tutorial videos with exact weights and measurements.

[@Demicakes]

love your channel dude, literally going through all your videos, just awesome

[@animax54]

With little resource u did it man u actually made a silver button respect man

[@samuelscott7646]

congratulations on 250,000 subscribers Cody you totally deserve it!!!!

[@NeonsStyleHD]

If you have an ultrasound cleaner, you can get that shiny like it should be. Toothpaste does a good job getting there too.

[@theCodyReeder]

+NeonsStyle ah tooth paste! why didn't I think of that?!

[@Romazetti]

+Cody'sLab actually toothpaste gives very visible scratches, especially on soft metals like silver, but it may vary with different brands.

[@NeonsStyleHD]

Roman S. I used to make jewellry, and we used it all the time, until we got an ultrasound cleaner. It can produce tiny marks but are easily removed with a polisher (buff ball on a grinder).

[@chrisgadarowski9946]

+Cody'sLab Perhaps when you move the gold play button, you can also polish the silver surface more before afixing the button.

[@NiTheGod]

+Roman S. depends on the glit of the toothpaste and the metal you are using on

[@JasmineGoodenDisciple]

I think KZbin wanted to see can he make his own KZbin play button without letting him know.

Hey Cody... Just discovered your channel. I've only watched about 3 videos but I have already come to the conclusion that you're quite a remarkable person. I'm jealous of your many talents and intelligence.
