Hey everyone! Happy Thursday and I hope you all enjoy this weeks video! The Monkey Island mold is now available on my website (link in the description) These sell out really fast but don’t worry as more are constantly being made daily. Enjoy! 👍🏻

The difference between the two cleaning methods was outstanding, the tumbler is the way to go for your smaller items

I was just about to suggest using a tumbler when you brought one out. The coins definitely look better from the tumbler and they would look even better if you used a smaller medium and left the coins in longer. But you wouldn’t want to leave them in too long as the medium could polish away all the fine details, it’s something you might have to experiment with but nice job anyway 👍

Definitely like the tumbler ones best. All look amazing, but I love that deeper color the tumbler created!!

That tumbler is awesome. I can’t believe how clean those coins were.

Love it man! Appreciate you taking the time to make a video. I'll be working similar projects in the near future. Love the retro game intermission too!

Very nice molds. I was just thinking after you made the coins that you needed a tumbler, and low and behold you break one out. It's a pretty good one, I got the same one a few weeks back, they do make the items look awesome. Great video, stay safe and stay cool.

not to sure which method of cleaning was better as I like the both methods the tumbled ones came out with a tarnish on them (gives them age) and the ones that were wired brushed looked new. Great video there Adrock Keep up the good work and see you next week mate another great episode of ArtByAdrock. 😁👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😎

You can make things easier and reduce losses to oxidation by melting long, uncut, pieces of copper and feeding them into the puddle. Yeah, its blinding but it also gives you the chance to stir the puddle while you're filling the crucible.

Wow! The tumbler does an excellent job of polishing!

They're looking good!! Tumbler seems the way to go !!!

It's so nice of you to go out in that weather and melt! I've refused to fire mine up and it is only 105 here this week and have been refusing since it hit 90!

What a great looking bunch of coins. They turned out beautiful. However, I must say that the tumbler put out one heck of a shine.

The tumbler, looks like IT gives more shine to it

OMG the tumbled ones look fantastic.

Awesome video Adrock. The tumbler works pretty dang good.

The tumbler is definitely the way to go dude. The finish is awesome.

Yes, the tumbler worked much better. Great clip!!

question??? HOw is the easiet way to make a mold to melt copper and make beads...maybe plaster? cement?? thank you

Nice melt! “Mike Tyson’s punch out” definitely brought back memories.

The tumbler does a very nice job. Wonder if it needs the full 3 hours though, but I'm sure you will find out or already know. Curious, what is the abrasive in the tumbler?

WOOHOO! A balmy 110! :O Some items will require different methods for cleaning. Nice 8-bit boxing! Go Lil Mac! :D Sweet coins buddy! I like them all! The ones in the tumbler are definitely nicer, but I'll take 'em all! LOL Thanx for a great vid Adam!

The tumbler did a great job

Here is a hint for the tumbler. add a splash of vinegar and a dash of citric powder used for canning to the water , Dawn and stainless pins - you think your results are good, wait till you see what the vinegar and citric do. Its the method I use to clean all my brass for reloading and it is impressive

Yes Thursday again nice i think the tumbler did a better job too i always love your work

When using the tumbler, what did you put in there with the coins? Tack nails? Definitely the tumbler for cleaning; it can reach spots more easily than a wire brush can.

Ball mill! A big quality of life upgrade unless you particularly like sanding for some reason :) I wonder how the results would be if you took tumbled pieces to the buffing wheel.

wow that skull looks amazing

Very cool. I've been wanting to get into this hobby. What would be a good set up to start with? and where would one purchase all the items needed / whats the best quality items to buy? Thanks

What did you use in the tumbler? I like the tumbler coins better as it appears to have left more detail then the wire brush!

GOOD JOB ADAM THE TUMBLER WINS HANDS DOWN AWESOME LOOKING COINS ADAM 👍😎🇨🇦👍😎🇨🇦👍😎🇨🇦

Cool coins, the tumbler looks way better

Was wondering were did you get your molds made that you are saling i need one off mold made and was wondering @ArtByAdrock

Tumbler indeed. Wire brush scratches alot and one applies pressure as well. Tumbler it works 'softer'

I got a mold from you awhile ago and just today was able to use it and this is how it turned out well I can't take a picture of it but it turned out good not great on the detail but still I very nice coin

Those coins are really cool

I like the looks of the coins better from the tumbler. 👍🏼

Cool Stuff I think the Tumbler has the better look.

So as i love the look of the coins how much of a pain in the ass would it be to get and do a double sided coin of the same size molds?

Not sure what I ❤️ the most, The classic Nintendo Or the art you make but damn awsome Bro!!!

Very nice with the tumbler. Do you think a second round with nut shells would make the coins even more shiny? Also if you want a hammer that would make very short work of the pipes, my loyal 64oz steel face dead blow would love to make art after 22yrs of beating on rusted suspension. Just tell me how to send it.

Lol the tumbler works even better if you use stone and 2 pinches of sand

Tumble for sure... only if you are not in a hurry..... and for small pieces..very nice coins.....

Tuyệt tôi rất thích cách làm của bạn, cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ

I'd go with the tumbler. It keeps the details that the wire brush strips away. As for the NES classic, that was Glass Jaw Joe. He couldn't hit the ground after 20 shots of whiskey. STAY SHINY 😁

Big fan love your videos 😍😍😍😍

Thanks for sharing

try wire brush, then tumbler, see what happens???

Was there no slag when you melted this stuff or did you just not record yourself collecting IT? I’m curios as I wanna get into casting my own copper coins but dunno when to add borax a and when not too

Looks like the tumbler cleaned them up better.

Tumbler definitely makes it look like copper, wire brush looks more like bronze sometimes... 🤷‍♂️

Whats the best smelter for the price?

Pretty nice.

Awesome!

I think BigstackD needs to get a bigger tumbler and polish up all the coins he has so far, they look much better tumbled. Just a tip for the tumbler try getting small stainless steel bearings, that's what they use in casino's to clean up the change and it works great.

No contest bruv that tumblers the bees knees and less elbow grease, win win
