How Far Can I Forge a Copper Ingot?
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
And the answer is: a lot! For me this was a test to see if I can really forge cast copper.
It's tricky because it tends to crack if forged too hot or cold for long but it's definitely doable. Do you have any tips for forging copper? Let me know!
Thanks a lot for watching, I hope you liked the video!

I was like "Hmm, a spoon? Who would eat with such a huge spoon? Giants?" Then I almost started rolling on the floor when you ate with it. lol
I laughed out loud seeing Black Beard eat with the spoon.

That's what I was coming hear to say. It happens a lot with new metal workers making themselves copper mugs, and they assume it's safe because you see copper mugs in stores all the time. They have to be lined to be safe. It's a real bummer.

Don't want to rain on your parade either... First off, great public service announcement. But your plumbing is likely full of copper piping and that lining doesn't last forever 👌 Also, just about everything you eat is full of micro plastics! I'd be less worried about trace elements of copper and copper biproducts 😉

I’m guessing that you have to keep the metal cherry red in a hammering stage to stop it splitting or shattering.
"How do you want your Tortellini served?" "With a ridiculously large handforged copper spoon, if that's possible. Thanks!"
Just stumbled upon your channel, cannot even tell you how happy this video makes me by having a ton of my favorite things in it (copper, casting, smithing, cooking, handsome man smiling, oversized old-fashioned utensil... list goes on).. instant sub!
Nice, I like the " screws and tools" type ending.... cook / eat something with what you just made / restored...
...lookin' good, nice work, stay well and have a great weekend...
This is another fantastically soothing video. The results are always so wonderfully attractive. Thank you.
Nicely done 👍👍👍Thanks for sharing

Нельзя пользоваться чисто медной посудой! Это большое заблуждение, оттого, что вся старинная медная посуда дошла до наших времен без оловянной полуды (стерлась в процессе долгого использования). Медную посуду нужно обязательно лудить, причем не простым оловом, а пищевым (олово высокой очистки без мышьяка).

@@MrHerMorzhov и тем не менее, медная посуда во все времена считалась ядовитой, и либо лудилась, либо покрывалась эмалью. Отравление солями меди из-за приготовления пищи в плохо лужённой или изношенной медной посуде было распространённой причиной смерти ещё в тридцатые годы ! Например, в справочнике по криминалистике упоминается отравление семьи из четырёх человек солями меди в клюквенном варенье, которое готовилось в медных котлах с частично слезшим покрытием. А олово насколько я поинмаю на практике быстро пассивируется и вредных соединений не образует, а те продукты коррозии, которые образуют плотную пассивирующую плёнку, для человека безвредны.
Once again you prove you are a wildman. Good stuff!

Good job mister

Wow great job 👏 👍
I guess we can now see just how far you can forge an inget of copper. Very nicely done! Thanks for sharing and God bless
Like the construction. Thanks for the look.
Tooo gooood mate. 😍❤️😂 Eating with that massive spoon is awesome!

Uh, bronze is copper and tin. It wouldn't look as good as you think. If he used copper, brass and nickel it would. That's called mokume gane, at least the cheaper version of it. The more expensive version would be gold, silver and rose gold.
Lol.. Amazing job bro 😁🤩💜
Your smile at the end says it all
Hello, great video! :D but please don't eat with it! Copper can leach into to your food in amounts that aren't safe to consume. Unlined copper isn't safe for everyday cooking.

this really only applies to acidic foods and/or when using copper cooking vessels. tableware is generally a safe application for copper because the contact time with food is very short compared to vessels and cookware.
Now that’s a big spoon. Great job!
Molto simpatico il finale! 😄😄😄Cucchiaione = famona! 👍👍👍😁😁😁
Pretty neat - at first I thought you were going for a copper ladle which would also be great to have in that size. Nice video!
I laughed really hard at you eating handling the massive spoon at the end.
Splendid
the look of satisfaction at the end, totally worth it
Fantastico come sempre 👍🔥👍🔥 Ci manca solo un po' di parmigiano sui tortellini 😂🤣😂 Buon appetito 😋
So funny the end, with the music !
Bon appetit!!!

Tortilini soup, my favorite. Nice spoon

Wow amazing you eat with that spoon 🥄. Great job friend.

Ahaaaa. Very stylish ladel man.
Amazing
Thank GOD you weren’t my family member back in the day! My mom used to tear me and my brothers up with the ole wooden spoon, you would be like hey Rose “ try this one and see how it works” YIKES LOL
Nice sir ❣️
Excellent work. Be careful don’t get poisioned. You may coat with tin.
lol for a sec i thought you were going eat with a spork 😆😆😆😆
Welcome to the copper age. :-). Seriously nice job man. Need to make a fork and knife to go with it!
Perfect. Long enough to steal food from other people while they are distracted.
Szacunek chłopie . Masz dużą wiedzę i złote ręce :-)

Now that's a spoon! You could eat from a bowl across the table with that spoon!
great first try, hope you froge more copper kitchen tools
Nice spoon / ladle whichever way you look at it.
Awesome. First I tought it would be a shoe horn.
Cereal killer spoon. 💚👽☻
Spoooooon
Ah yes, tortellini. The traditional step after cleanup!
I see others have already posted but I'm gonna do it anyway cause I hope Mr Black Beard himself sees at least one of the posts. Copper is not safe for eating with without the proper precautions. Raw copper is dangerous if ingested and it leaches very easily if I'm not mistaken.

Gregor Clegane eats pasta soup with a giant copper spoon… And he wants two chickens.
I was anticipating the switcheroo at the end to an accompanying soup spoon. But oh well next time.
wondering if it works better the way you are doing it (just heated red hot) or when annealed by quenching.
I loved The remix of Mr. Thumnus' song. Like the rest of the video✨
Now you need to make a giant copper fork and knife
Very nice work! Doesn't it get too hot to hold fast?

I think that because of work hardening. Hitting it with a hammer causes a lot of internal stress, making it harder to deform and less malleable which makes it prone to cracking.

where can I get one of those big slabs with the forming holes?
Is that food dumplings? - -!
So good for giant 😂❤❤❤
I think bare copper cookware and utensils are poisonous. This is why in the old times, they tinned the copper pots.
perfecto =)

Can you forge aluminum?

Blackbeard, now you owe it to your followers how to craft a copper knife. (You know, copper was the first metal used by Mankind, iron being so pricey at that epoch that only kings could afford it - for example, Tutankamun's dagger, made out of meteoritic iron.)
Now that's my size spoon but to long for me to eat with LOL When you started was you planning a spoon or was you just going to see where it too you. Enjoyed the video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
