Trashed Tool Treasure - Melting My Tools - Copper & Aluminium Extraction - ASMR Metal Melting

So after years of using some tools they finally gave up and you know me ill melt them down into something. I also melted down the wife's hair straightener and a small fan. Don’t forget to hit the bell 🔔 for all notifications as I’m working on a giveaway for 4 lucky winners very soon , they can be anywhere in the world I just need to work out what they will win and what the giveaway would involve.

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??????.
****************************************************
STEEL FOR MY FRIEND
I keep all my steel and cast iron pieces and I give them to my friend and once he gets about a tonne from me and his own collecting he takes that to the scrapyard and sells it then he buys some beer and comes over to my house and we make a night of it.
No My friend doesn’t have a KZbin channel he just scraps metal in his spare time.

I love the weekly videos & I especially like how this week you saved a bunch of stuff from the landfill. Recycling & entertaining all of us at the same time. Winning!

[@ThatOneRoadie]

A tip for those annoying voids that appear when casting copper: brush a bit of lamp-black (acetylene black powder) into the bottom of the mold before or after heating. It should help prevent those annoying oxidation voids that like to pop up in the copper as it pours.

[@davidlowe2394]

Where do you purchase that? It seems to be mainly available only to manufacturing plants. Unless I want to buy a ton of it from china.

[@ThatOneRoadie]

@@davidlowe2394 The easiest way to "make" Lamp Black in small batches is just burning a white candle and "catching" the soot in your mold; The soot itself is mostly lamp black.

[@andie_pants]

GAAAAAHHH!!! You gotta warn a brother before hitting him with that level of cuteness first thing in the morning! You and that Adrock yahoo have given me some horrible ideas so I've gone and bought myself some kaowool, some refractory, an empty paint can, an extension hose for 1lb propane torches, and a melting dish. Now to watch some tutorials and figure out how to cobble it all together into something functional. Figure some beer can tabs are a good place to start experimenting with melting. In the meantime, I've got a dish to glaze with borax. Bonus fact: when you say "bacon" with a Jamaican accent, you're also saying "beer can" with an Australian accent.

[@MC-ew7sc]

I used a paint can to build my furnace. For the insulation I used a mix of wood filler(Plaster essentially), sand and clay. Btw I extracted the clay from some soil I found from near a river.

[@JamesSmith-lt5zz]

Usually it's just the brushes that wear out, like 6-7 dollars to replace. My old welding shop would Chuck grinders once they stopped working and I'd get them out the dumpster after work. I have like 20 DeWalt and Makita, Fein, rigid etc grinders. All they needed were brushes. 4-1/2 to 7inch grinders. I never said anything if they have money to waste like that I'll take them and use them. To save space I've disassembled a handful of them to have spare parts completely. Switches, brush holders, gears, motors etc. I'll never run out of dwe402 11 amp grinders.

[@dennyreinhart7131]
