Well it's finally here guys the big one. I have a lot of metal added to the stack today as you would already be aware. A feature length vid today sorry about that and so good luck getting through the whole thing. It just dawned on me I haven't done a giveaway for awhile so that will be coming up very soon but I'll probably keep it out of the title as thats when the scammers swope in to the comment section so be sure you don't miss the next few videos👊🏻😁. Now sit back relax and enjoy today's extra extra long video and I hope to see all you beautiful people next Friday. Sorry about the Aussie accent as that's what we sound like down here👍🏻.

Next is the face reveal

We did it boys! ONE METRIC TONNE! Melt the Planet!

What a beauty, that motor has put in some serious work over the decades and this is a fitting retirement indeed.

Hearing BigstackD speak is like hearing the Primitive Technology dude speak. I feel like I'm privy to forbidden knowledge now.

Since that engine was 80+ years old, imagine the journey that copper has made. It was likely shipped to England from Canada as part of the war effort - likely as large ingots. In England it was made into an engine that was then shipped all the way to Australia to be later turned back into ingots again!

The Man, The Myth, The Legend and The Voice. Genuinely smiled like a mad man when we heard you. An epic achievement and bloody well done. Here’s to the next goal

A tip from someone who does this on a daily basis. First cut off one end of the fuel coil (out side part of the motor) before burning. That way you just take pliers and pull the copper out from the end that wasn't cut. The armature (inside part) you have to cut both ends off (flush to the metal) then use a piece of flat bar to hammer the copper bars out. If you strip down enough of that size motors you will soon be doing it in less than a hour and a half

Action, suspense, intrigue, musical accompaniment, James Bond-like gadgets, animal wildlife, ... perfect for a feature-length film if you ask me!

I can't believe we finally made it. And what a way to absolutely smash the goal. Absolutely amazing, my dude. Congrats!

BigStackD, you are my hero, seriously. You deserve thousands and thousands of likes. Super hard work, so much effort put into transforming old and “retired” equipment into something that people can still use. I love your creativity, your constant sense of humor and your tenacity, I wish you all the best. I look forward to your videos every time. Congrats on achieving your long-awaited record! 🤘 P.S. And I wish a good health to little Ingot, sent hugs and kisses to him.

@SupremeDoge35

Weirdo

the dopamine rush from a 1h30min long bigstackd video being dropped is absolutely unparalleled

In case no one has told you yet, the best way to strip the copper winding is to cut off one side of the winding extension before you burn it out and then pull the coils out from the other side once the burnout process is complete.

🎉 it was amazing to hear his voice

I was quite taken aback by the voiceover at the end. You've always been this ethereal being in my mind, melting metal and consuming various meat products. To hear a voice was a shock, but a welcome one! Well done on achieving the goal mate! Been a long time coming!

Hunde sind einfach die besseren Menschen! Seit meinem 5 Lebensjahr habe ich Hunde, aktuell einen Malamut einen Polarwolf Hybriden und einen Rottweiler. In den 55 Jahren in denen ich Hunde habe, hat mich noch nie ein Hund belogen, betrogen oder im Stich gelassen! Aber die Menschen die all das gemacht haben, kann ich nicht mehr alle zählen! Danke fürs Video.

A quick tip, if you cut off the copper “head” on one side, you can after heating it up like you did pull the copper out with a pulley. And pls don't hit the bearings with a hammer so hard, if they break, they break like a little explosion and shooting itself as shrapnel everywhere. I work with those motors all the time, and we do it like this when we disassemble motors. Btw, love your videos, keep up the good stuff

It has been an honor, may the future shine brighter than the past and the present remain longer than expected 🖖

I was surprised to see you fly away at the end and even more surprised when you talked! Thanks for all the soothing melts over the years. A good time had by all!

Thanks, really thanks for hearing your voice ! That's the cherry on top of your generally absolute great vids !

Nice to hear that deep , baritone Aussie voice, mate ! Thanks for the feature , Love from a Canadian pal 🖖🏻

He reaches the target and we got the reward of a voiced thanks? That was so heartfelt as always BigStackD!

The voice startled my subconscious enough that it jolted me out of my nap. It was like an existential truth of my life had been violated.

Amazing video, thank you for being with us and showing the results of your labors, I am very glad that your goal of one ton has been achieved, it was a difficult path, but it has been achieved. Bigstackd is a real man!!! p.s in the rotor where there were copper blades, there are still copper plates inside the iron, they pass through (squirrel cage) and you can get them by knocking them out with a thin bolt or hairpin, but it will be damn difficult. Good luck in everything)

I am a propane delivery and service guy, the best way I know to prevent tanks from freezing is to put 2 or 3 tanks together, so you draw your propane from all at once and propane has more time to boil inside the tank and not lower it's temperature to point of ambient humidity freezing

I’ve got to say this is amazing! I’m so happy you finally surpassed the one tonne goal! 🎉 that motor must’ve been tough to crack into, but the result was worth it. Congrats again for achieving the milestone! 🙂

What an amazing finale! I think I joined in around the 500 Kg mark, but dip into the old videos from time to time. This was so utterly cathartic. That voice reveal (nice pipes, by the way!), the drone footage, and a just absolute BEAST of a teardown. It's been a pleasure to watch the channel, your videography and your home grow over the years. Glad to see Ingot is on the mend, and the wife and I are eagerly looking forward to all the many milestones to come. Thank you for having us along. :)

CONGRATULATIONS BIGSTACKD!!! Awesome video as always! The only thing I'm subscribed too on KZread. Seen one of your first video's at your other house and wanted to melt every piece of scrap metal I seen. Congratulations on hitting (over) 1000kg!!!

I'm 2 weeks late but man is this one an amazing video. That was a ton of copper too, satisfied for months with this one. I love to see the way copper melts, is poured, and then cools down. Curious to see what next milestone you putting on yourself.

My guy achieves his goal then starts to fly like superman at the end?! I need to start melting down metals 😂😭

Finally the video i have been waiting years for im so excited an hour and a half of pure excitement long live bigstackd

I've nearly watched everyone of your vids. This tear down and the bullet welder are my favorite vids so far.

I just find it amazing that the bolts after all these years were still in pristine condition that's amazing. The first time everything was open and exposed like that in more than 70 to 80 yrs. just blows my mind. Probably back to its original form in the first place 🤔.

Been watching every week (haven’t missed one) for over 3 years. Truly happy for this dude, such an awesome journey, great to hear his voice and see the target achieved! Can’t wait to see what is next!

Been enjoying your videos for years - so happy to see you reach that target. Well done!

Beer and Doughnuts-The Breakfast of Champions!! Awesome Video BSD!! Praying for All and Especially for Ingot!! God Bless!!

I not only like your melts, I like the disassembly too, very chill. Reminds me of watching my dad work in his shop when I was a kid❤

It’s been a while since I’ve started watching and waiting every week to see how much closer the weight got to the goal, and seeing the 110% overhaul got me a little choked up. I was far more surprised and excited to finally hear your voice after 3 years (maybe longer) of only seeing your words, hands, and humor. That sent me over and a single (manly) tear crawled out in tribute of your majestic voice and the equally majestic view you brought to us. You are a beautiful soul and I thank you for your continued courage and commitment through these years.

And to think last week you only needed 100g to get the target.... bravo sir!! I look forward to your next adventures!🎉

Copper fans are full happy enjoying this video.

That brought a bunch to the totals. Thanks for sharing with us.

He’s done it everyone he’s reached one metric tonne in metal and I hope you keep going I’ve fallen in love with the channel.

A beautiful achievement! Grateful to you for taking us on this journey with you. It’s both sad and exciting to see you reach this goal. Can’t wait to see what’s next! Cheers, mate!!

If you cut one side of the motor winding completely with a spiral stone, I recommend that you can remove it more easily after it burns.

Watching your videos is always a treat and is always a nice highlight to the week. Congrats on hitting the goal and the voice reveal was shocking! Made me turn back and listen to it again.

I distinctly remember watching when you hit exactly 50% of your target. I am so very glad I was here to see that target reached! Thank you for brightening my Fridays for the past few years. Keep up the great work.

The way you attach chains is maddening lol

Yay, I totally loved this episode. Loved hearing your dulcet tones. The pours were mesmerising, and I was chuckling at the dogs. You rock Bigstackd. Don't stop what you're doing as you clearly love it. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

No flippin way! Haven't caught a melt video in many many moons and am very glad to have caught this one. One tonne achieved here, we get to hear your voice, and somewhere in the relatively recent past you upgraded from garage to workshop. Thank you for the upload

I’ve been watching you since you were melting down brass ingots in a little kiln in the back yard 😂 now you have an amazing shop with every tool imaginable. Great job and congratulations on your accomplishments!! From the USA 🇺🇸

This dudes patience level is beyond Jedi force!!!

I'm the subscriber (diff name then) who left comments at your request for video suggestions for you to do the biggest melt on YT. Well, you finally did it!!!!! Awesome!! CONGRATS ON YOUR REACHING YOUR GOAL!

Love the vids. Congrats on 1000 kg goal🎉

This channel satisfies something deep in my brain. Keep up the hard work BigStackD!

Been behind on the videos, working a ton of OT. Can’t believe you finally hit it! Been here since the early days, congratulations bigstack. Well deserved and a nice way to end the video! Look forward to the continued adventure!

What a payoff ! I've been waiting years for this, and you deliver an hour and a half long video for the "1 tonne" target. What a great way to start my weekend. Thank you

Congratulations on blowing past your target! Nice to hear your voice again 🙂 I remember you spoke in some of your very 1st posts! I realized why I enjoy watching you tear stuff down/apart (despite not thinking I'd have any interest in it) it's like going along on a treasure hunt & damn that motor was the mother lode for copper! Glad to hear reaching the 1 ton goal doesn't mean the end of the road, there's still lots of melting to be done & i reckon I'm not going anywhere either since you're 1 of my favorite KZreadrs! 👍

Congrats brother. Always good to see someone accomplish their goal! Cheers mate.

Fun to see this day arrive! Congrats on turning a hobby into a adventure. Keep it going, man.

Its a bitter sweet end to a chapter. As the page turns a new chapter starts. Cant wait to see you hit the next goal!

Well this was an awesome journey! I remember when there was no mention of a stack and the subs were below 20K. You have inspired many to get into metal casting including me. This great hobby means a lot to me and has taught me many new things and I have learned a lot of new skills, and not to mention the awesome people I have found and met trough KZread. It's great to hear your voice again after all these years, hope you talk to us again in future videos, THANKS Dion!!! 👍👊

I have a very deep and healthy respect and appreciation for you D! Must have taken one day to break down. One day to prepare the metal. One day to melt. Another to clean/polish. Then, two days to edit the video. All for your viewers. Man of the Decade!

BigstackD just flew around in creative mode and thought we wouldn't notice.

Nice, reached the one tonne goal and then flew off into the distance. What a legend

finally got to hear the man, the myth, the legends voice! Super happy the goal has been reached! and proud of how far this channel has come. Excited for what the future holds! Congrats mate! - mad love from Miami 🤘

THANK YOU BigStackD! You do us such an amazing thing providing us with your videos, your community appreciates you and it was such a nice touch at the end we’ve all been waiting for that!😂❤

Nice to see the gold button from KZread in the midle off your treasury and finaly hear voice from you like a radio presenter. Greetings from Poland

Congratulations on reaching your goal! Awesome!!! Glad I was able to follow some of your journey, can’t wait to see what comes next!

Great job hitting your goal! Ever thought about consolidating all the smaller bars into larger bars to make room for the next tonne?

This was an incredible video. It was like a movie of pure enjoyment. And of course FINALLY THE TARGET IS MET! YAAAS!! When I woke up and saw the title, my jaw dropped and I got so excited! Truly phenomenal video, and I am sure it was a tiresome journey to work on all that melting. Great job man! Also, a true honor to hear your voice for the first time at the end. I hope Ingot's eye is doing better and that you and family are doing well. Bless you sir for the awesome content. Can't wait to continue following this journey.
