Very nice melt and pour! The bullion bars are looking good!!

Good bars but preheat your molds, dust with graphite powder and cook the liquid copper at boiling for a few minutes then flux and skim. You are definitely good on this. Sweat the details and you will have a perfect bar!

Also don't hang out at room temp so long and pour in a slow even rate.

Amazing. You should make more videos. Liked and subbed.

Some things to consider. 1, a good flux and flux thinner make the bars solidify without waves, and make the molten copper less viscous. 2, copper tubing is 99.99% pure, so it has intrinsically more value to buyers and collectors. 3, tongs are a great investment.

For some reason that makes no sense to me. The value of the copper drops when this is done.

You need to pre heat your moulds to a higher temp, and cook your copper hotter before you poor.
