Hello again all you beautiful people👋🏻😁It is crazy how fast these weeks are going by, as usual I hope all you guys & gals are safe and happy and doing well. A lot of people keep asking for the Metal dust melt and even though I didn’t have much dust I thought I would still get it done👍🏻. I will do a slag melt soon as well. Now I’m working on some designs for merchandising and if anyone out there is a graphic designer or a great drawer and can think of a simple design that represents my channel feel free to email it to me on this email below and if I do go ahead and use the design I will be sure to send you a thank you gift. Now hopefully I’ll see you all again next week and I hope you have an awesome weekend , stay safe and take care👊🏻😃. bigstackddddd@mail.com

@@smoker4188 When melting brass in general, The closest to getting perfect precision in your end product alloy, that you can get, is if you used a temperature controlled kiln to get the brass to the exact temperature you want, and then it just comes comes down to doing a lot of math to find out how much zinc you will lose, at said temperature, and how long it takes to reach temperature, how much surface area is exposed to the air also effects it, because the very surface of the metal will burn zinc slightly faster, but after a bunch of research on your equipment and a bunch of math you can just add that amount of zinc back into it, and stir it once the brass is molten. So honestly, if you need PRECISION down to milligrams or decimals of milligrams, then you're likely in an industrial environment because most people won't need that degree of precision. An industrial environment will have extremely precise equipment and people who have already done the zinc loss math that relates to their equipment setup. But yeah even in industrial work, adding zinc back to molten brass is pretty commonplace.
