I'm watching this even now and it still a stunning piece of work. Love it Dave

Superb video David, Thank you for that. I never knew ammonia would do that to copper. I loved the results. Great.

That was a really interesting build to watch! The workshop looks likes full of lots of fun machines too!

I was waiting for you to stop crushing that cup, or at least straighten it back out. Poor thing got nearly turned into scrap. :(

sounded like a dubstep buildup at 0:32 lmao. half expected a bass drop

Very cool! I really miss working with metal. We had all those tools in metal shop when I was in high school. I recently started making copper bracelets from heavy wire I found, now I got the bug again

Beautiful work - I think I like the banged up one the best of the three...

Nice work. I enjoyed metal shop in high school, wish i had done more of it.

Nice build, cool shop, good skills. I would be freaking out if you were hammering on my Shear but I guess that cool in your shop. Subbed Take care Dave

Nice work! Love the final result!

LOVE the ammonia trick! cool mugs

Hey David! Was really nice meeting you... Looking forward to see the one you were making the other day... ;)

Amazing craftsmanship David. Reading comments it seems like nobody reads the descriptions though. Whatever keep on making awesome stuff. I enjoy the videos immensely.

The first time I saw this video I hated the crushed mug. I re-discovered your channel today and realized I had seen this video, but now I love that one!! Sorry for the "cool story bro" moment but I just wanted to say that even though I mentally trolled you a year ago, I am now wiser and handsomer. Beautiful work!

That's a nice mug I made one out of 32 oz and tig welded it. I think I'll make a hammered one now..thanks for the video

Excelent work. Looks easy with the right tools.

Very neat. Your last video gave me an idea for a spoon project. Is the crushed cup still water tight?

Love it! Keep up the awesome vids!

Very cool once again. Jimmy was right to tell you to post more on your channel. Also, even though you meet a lot of people at the shop, it was nice meeting you the past July 21st when my family stopped by to see Jimmy and he introduced us to you while you were working on maybe register covers made of wood? Either way. Good meeting you and I really enjoy your projects too. You are very talented.

Great job! You are an artist. What did you use to make the tight bead at the bottom of the first mug? Or should I say which rolls did you use?

WOW, amazing!

Amazing!!

Making that crushed mug was nice idea but what bothered me it got bit unpractical as the bottom part got so flat. It might trap some gunk there. So I was thinking a solution if someone wish to redo similar mug. One could try puting a bycycles inner tire at the bottom and pump it almost full or cast 1/2" layers of plaster mixed with grainy saw dust. That way crushing can be conrolled. And the layers of plaster don't need to be cured flat. Tilting the mug while the mixture cures might cause nice effect. Innter tire and the plaster can be removed easily from the final product. Thanks for the videos and keep up the good work.

Awesome build David! Heard about your channel on the Making It podcast! Joe

Amazing!

Artistry. Thanks for the great videos man. You rock.

Great video. Most copper pots and pans are lined with tin to stop oxidation when it comes in contact with acidic foods and to prevent copper poisoning. Maybe you could try that? I think all you do is melt the tin in the pot or mug in this case, coat the inside, then pour out the excess.

Awesome!

Great mugs! The crushed one was a bit overcrushed for practical use but that's my opinion. Yet another great vid!

Hell of a lot of machinery for something traditionally hand made

Looks like you're ready for some moscow mules! Nice work! What gauge copper did you use?

holy crap!! WOW!!!

Any reason behind the smashed one or just variety? Love the work!

you should really take a wet rag and wipe that excess solder while it's still hot. looks way better. awesome job btw. great little project

awesome mugs

Very nice work David, all three looked very convincing, heck you could even tell tales that they belonged to some far reaching relative who was in the civil war not desert storm, looks good is it recommended for drinking from and take it is lead free solder? I’d personally prefer to have the inside plated with something nontoxic (just in case). But lovely job indeed....Phil

Great work. Do you know what number bead roll you used for the bottom of the cup?

You're like diresta #2, except you put out 100x the videos xD

Nothing beats a hot cup of Ammonia on a cold winter day.

Fairly informative video. One suggestion would be better camera angles. For example, when using the bead roller, we the audience didnt see the rollers or the workpiece being formed.... the camera showed the bottom of the mug from the other side.

Great skills, the crunched cup looks like something a pirate might have used. Thank you

Bloody nice work mate! Got your self a new sub from me hah :)

Like the peen hammered one best. Loved the one you hit with the dowel, until you crushed it. And I liked them all better before the forced patina. Something that well made should grow its own patina with use. This is, of course just my opinion. beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Nice work. I do this stuff also. I have a Pexto double seamer and a circle shear. The bottom piece of copper has to be cut almost exact are it won't work, along with turning a burr on the can portion, tight tolerances only. Thanks for posting.

What was the tool used to planish the inside bottom of the cup? Any picture of that?

Now I understand why copper mugs cost so much

Must be nice to have all those specialized tools. Some of us do all of this by hand...

Fran Viguera Hace 2 días Hi David. can I ask you a question: what product do you use to give the appearance of old to metal?

No one got pissed about you hammering on the shear?

Fine work with copper

it was such a nice cup

Very nice mug Can you provide the manufacturer details or the cleaning process of the copper mug Please

Nice work

what is the machine that puts the little bevel in the first cup for the base?

I feel like the crushed mug is a pain in the ass to clean, but I love the design!

Thank You!

NICE!!!!!!!!

Excelente trabalho. Parabéns.

Awesome. Why belt up the copper sheet before forming it? To help make it look old or to aid in the shaping of it? Thanks !

+Waynos Waynos While it does change the appearance, all the hammer blows work harden the copper, making it stiff.

Damned fine video, subbed.

I'd actually be really interested to see what you and Jimmy could do with metal melting and casting, even though that might not be your thing and his thing. still, I'd love to see some aluminum(or aluminium to the Brits)/brass/bronze/copper castings, and then maybe incorporate them into other works.

@Tenfdy

9 жыл бұрын

yes. in fact your body needs copper. but as everything you can have a overdose. but (again) you dont need to worry about that, wont happen just from some mugs and stuff. (last) but try not to use copper stuff for acidic foods because it could/would form copper acetate and thats moderate toxic.
