Actually Mark if I was stealing stuff I would definitely not show it where millions of people could potentially see it matey, I’m assuming you haven’t been around very long or you would know the situation. I’ll give you a quick rundown as I don’t like the idea of people thinking I’m a thief. I get 90% of my scrap off of a local industrial site where my friend is the boss. He gives me free reign over the scrap bins and I can take anything I like out of those bins on the one condition that he sees it melted down in a future video. I’m not allowed to refurbish or restore anything I take home I need to destroy it , melt it and add it to the shelves. That’s why you will see sometimes I might melt down a perfectly good motor or a heap of padlocks or brand-new lights etc . I do most of my scrap bin searches at night and that’s only because there’s less prying eyes and if the dayshift workers saw me taking stuff out of the bins there’s a good chance they would take it before I got there at night. It’s an absolute shame some of the stuff this site throws in there scrap bins but at the end of the day if I don’t take stuff out to show them on my videos it’s all going to the local scrapyard to be ripped apart and recycled so it’s a win for me👍🏻

Damn you hit the jackpot, I'm a plumber by trade so my jackpots where when we would do remodels on houses from the '50s or '60.....in those days alot of the big drain pipes were copper, and when I'd start the demo process I'd pull out garbage can loads full of copper. ..at anywhere between $350/$500 a can....nice lil bonus for those days

something about creating ingots out of scrap is so satisfying and feels so useful idk how to describe it really

This is my all time favorite video. I continually return to this and watch it again and again. Learning how much copper was really in those cylinoids was incredible. Then you didn't have to do any scooping of the metal once you melted it down! And your pours were on par! All around this video is a 50/10 for me.

I love the way you just do this in your garage in front of your car. You must really know what you’re doing. I love watching this. Brilliant.

I don't know why but I'm now addicted to watching these videos

Love how copper wire just bursts out of them, they didn't look nearly as packed as they were!

You don't gloss over or attempt to hide the crap, you fix it and move on. Makes for a great channel.

You are creating two incredibly satisfying works of art here: the metal and the video. Amazing work!

I am hooked on scrapping. Been doing it for 40 years. Paid for my first car at 16. I always sell it and now that I have discovered you.....I have this urge to melt it. Thanks bigstackD

Man you've come a long ways. I can appreciate the process to how you do this. *Awesome as always.* 1 ton is just around the corner. I'd love to get started on melting and eventually make me some *Nordic.*

This is so cool. I am stoked you found this. More stoked you shared it with us.

I think this was my first vid and my favorite. I love that solenoid copper, when you bust that plastic open and tons come out of that little cap. Great stuff right there.

I'm not sure how long you thought about making a u tube channel before you did it but it's pretty obvious you were melting alloys long before hand, very clean work . The pride and organization is what makes your channel so easy to watch , it's alot of fun and Thanks
