Very nice melt. I had 3 alloy wheels to melt down, I started cutting them and 3 hours in I had hardly touched it and I was going through discs like no tomorrow and the reciprocating saw didn’t want to cut it either so they went straight down the scrap yard. So well done for getting them cut up and nice video, a good amount for the stack 👍

Thanks for watching.👍🏻

Wonder if you could put a preheating shelf on top of the lid to start warming the next batch of parts with the waste heat.

Enjoying your videos with no music. Your tools and equipment are so unique. Keep up the great work. 😎👍

Thanks, will do!

Show more of the slag skimming please.

I had the same trouble. 😂 I ended up using a circular saw with a tungsten blade on it. Works great.

Hell ya Joe now doesn't this sure actually seem pretty fucking fun & entertainingly intruiging as well fascinating too my friend !!! Thanks for your sharing mate

Fantastic foundery and tools, lovely old job!🍻

Awesome Melt! Great size furnace too! Great view shots too! 5 Star video! Keep it up!

Great job brother !!!

Thanks for watching.

That rim was giving a hard time 😂 I see you have two new moulds! I will order two of those if my new furnace is ready. I will also order a bigger crucible and make a new lifter. Lots of plans, now just some time and money. Great melt my friend ✌🏻

Very satisfying and soothing to watch your process. The tools and equipment you have are awesome. New subscriber here. Thank you.

Nice

We watch a few smelting channels and we've decided we like your pouring best, you never over fill anything so you don't get the "fat" bottom, your pours normally come out nice and flat which is cool. If you are interested in making and selling a keg furnace please message me. Me and my wife are looking for something bigger than a devil and we like to repurpose things that would otherwise be scrapped or sent for land fill.

Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you are enjoying the channel. I had not thought about selling the Keg Furnace, I used the Devil Forge as a starter furnace but soon realised I needed a bigger furnace. The larger Devil Forge furnace cost around £1500 so I decided to build my own which came in at around £800. Are you in the UK?

Hey joe, have you pre heat your moldings before using them? It’s safer to pre heat every time, so you get rid off moisture, prevention for splashing the hot material! Be safe man! Great videos 👊🏻

Hi, thanks for watching, I always pre-heat the moulds, sometimes I forget to show on the video.

I just thought of this today as I gave away 4 wheels to a young fella for a drift car. What grade are alloy wheels? Could cylinder shaped ingots be poured? Something thst could go into lathes would be handy

nice i like your furnace

Oh Man. cutting that rim didn't look fun. thumbs up for getting it done. I picked up a semi rim on the side of the highway. probably weighs 25kgs. not sure how I will cut it up

Great melt Joe. A circular saw with a carbide blade works great for cutting aluminum.

Cracking vid mate just getting into this my self as just took early retirement due to missis not being to well nead to keep me brain busy. Subed guna check out your other vids sprocky from redditch UK 🇬🇧 👍🏻

Great job! When you melt that aluminum alloy and make a new object with it, will it be as strong as the original object? Or it loses its hardnesses properties?

Not sure. Thanks for watching!

It looses the quenching but if you do make the material follow a specific temperature regime following the pour you can get it back strong. People just put it on ice

What size furnace, crucible and mold would I need to make a 5lb aluminum ingot?

The setup I have now should do it, thanks for watching.

OH Dear! Just put the wheel on a barby or an open wood fire, get it as hot as you can (300 to 400 deg C at least) and smash it with a sledge hammer, should break up readily, much easier and probably safer than all that cutting.... Martin PS. Note that sadly wheels are not always 356 alloy many (particularly European) have the alloy designation on the back. BMW wheels for example are marked AlSi9 this is a pressure die cast alloy> A European 356 alloy wheel would be marked AlSi7Mg although the Mg maybe missing.

I wish U ... one morning will be all gold and platinum...

Sledgehammer would've saved you some time!

stainless steel alloy ?
