Welcome back you sensational subs how are you all today?. It's been a while since I did a motor so it'll be a pretty simple melt today. A nice mirrored Copper bar and some big Aluminium bricks to add to the stack. Now Sit back relax & enjoy today's video and I hope to see you all next Friday😁👋🏻

I love the way Ingot literally turns his nose up at cucumber. Between that and his laziness, truly, he is my spirit animal.

Idea for you, place a timer in lower corner and start it when you initially close the lid and stop it when it is ready to pour. Love your shows!!

I think my favorite parts of these videos are becoming the crazy ways he gets or finds his snacks.

no lie, i would totally watch BigSnackD as a youtube channel! teaching us all of your favorite recipes, trying out fan submissions, you could do all kinds of cool things with it!

Watching the beginning of this video, I realised that you can do a PhD in ASMR. Your use and variation of sound and vision (incl speed) set the standard for all the other channels. And the gentle touch of the sledgehammer is sublime. Honestly, really very well done.

I love how it seems the same bird yells at you in every video. LOLz

I can already tell that by the end of 2022 you will have achieved your goal. Keep melting those heavy weight scraps.

With admittedly no basis or experience on the subject, I'm convinced that the holes are caused at the beginning of the pour when the hot copper hits the (relatively) cold mold and rapidly freezes on contact. What would happen if you got that mold just smokin' hot (near copper's melting point) before pouring? Would you still get those holes?

Awesome Melt as always I do have a Question what was wifeies reactions to finding out you melted her sewing machine last week =)

A magnetic switchable device (often called a magnetic base) is a magnetic fixture that uses one or more permanent magnets in a configuration that allows the external field to be turned on or off. They are used in many applications including optics, metalworking, lifting, and robotics, to attach items to metal surfaces in a secure but temporary way.The magnetic base may have a V cut into the bottom of the base or the back. This V allows the base to be attached to a round bar such as the column of a drill press or a pipe. One type of magnetic switchable device is made from two blocks of iron, with a round cavity bored through the centre. The halves are joined together with a non-ferrous material such as brass or aluminium. A round permanent magnet is inserted into the bored hole and a handle is attached to allow rotation of the magnet. This act of rotation changes the orientation of the magnetic field. In the off position, the poles are oriented towards the non-ferrous core. The iron blocks act as keepers by bridging between both poles. In the on position, the poles are each in one iron half, which then acts as an extension. The field is effectively passing across an air gap (at the base and top). If this gap is bridged with a piece of iron, it becomes part of the magnetic circuit and will be attracted with the full strength of the magnet.A magnetic base can therefore be attached in a variety of positions to any ferrous surface, allowing the base to be positioned in the desired orientation. An alternative to the post and swiveling connectors is an arrangement whereby a series of interconnecting swivels can be set in position by tightening or loosening a central member. This member may be made from wire rope as it has to be extremely flexible yet strong in tension, the possibilities for positioning this type is probably no more than the two post type but its advantage lies in the fact that there is only one mechanism (screw) to loosen or tighten the arrangement making it easier to use.

The switchable magnets works by two magnets being in-line with each other making it attract, then flipping one of them 90° which makes the magnets interfere with each other canceling the magnetic field... and now you know...

Its likely caused by gases dissolved into the molten metal that make their way out as it cools. Could also be something in the metal mold being released as well. Kind of like how before water boils you can see bubbles forming against the walls of a pot. I suppose it could also be caused by contaminants in the crucible too.

The magnet thingy probably works by twisting one magnet in relation to another so they can be in opposition (cancel out) or in conjuction (amplification).

Out of curiosity, and if you get a minute to respond, what is it exactly that foams up at the top of aluminum when casted? I mean, slag, obviously, but... what makes aluminum slag like that?

Impurities and also..quick oxidization make the surface that hit air form a "film". When its disturbed it will stick to everything including itself and make bubbles. Hence the frothy appearance it can have. That's why in some videos he remelts it back to aluminum to get as much out of it as possible. Alumifoam!

i noticed in another video you did a copper bar with a LOT of holes that were nearly all the way through both sides... any idea what causes that? im new to all of this and genuinely curious

@ILEFTCAPS0N

2 жыл бұрын

Generally, if you do a pour and keep the crucible stationary it won't have holes, but if you move it around while it's pouring, it can cause those holes to appear. Since melted copper is really thin, it pours just like water (basically why you can overfill the mold and it doesn't want to spill over the sides, where as aluminum does) and this means when it's being poured while moving around, it splashes around and hits the sides and itself which causes a lot of air bubbles to form and rapidly expand trying to escape. tl;dr gently pour it in a constant stream while keeping the crucible still and you'll be okay.
