I love the process of finding metals, melting them down, refining them and creating whatever comes to my mind. I also combine my love for woodworking to create unique pieces. I also love casting projectiles. Some common ones and some uncommon. Casting, loading, and shooting bullets are one is my favorite hobbies.

Fixing ingot molds & Casting Stars, Hearts, Skulls, and Crosses #asmr #melting #casting
Happy Friday everyone. Today I'm going to restore my ingot molds. They have been getting more difficult to get out for a little while. So I wanted to fix them. And also my family got me some new molds for father Day. so I definitely want to try those out. As you will see, they turn out to be a lot more difficult than I thought.
I will have to practice a lot with pouring them. They're small, so controlling the flow is a bit more difficult. But overall I think they turned out good. Unfortunately I ran out of time so I didn't get to clean them all up. I will make sure to do that in my next video.

Good morning everyone. I had a couple of ideas for this video that just didn't work out. But I came up with an idea that did. I recently found out that "Gunmetal" is an alloy. I always thought it was just a finish. So I decided to try and make some. I'm really happy with the results. You will have to let me know your thoughts on it. Although I didn't have every grit I needed, I still was able t...

So I haven't done an aluminum can melt yet. I've been saving all my cans for awhile. I use a trash can. Every time the trash can gets full, I smash all the cans down. My goal was to wait until I had an entire trash can full of crushed cans. Well... I finally filled it up. This did take a long time to melt. I also counted how many cans it takes to fill up my crucible with melted aluminum. I was ...
Old school TV - Copper - Trash to treasure - Melting #asmr #melting #trashtotreasure #copper

Good morning and happy Friday everyone. Today I scrap down an old school tube TV. And add a few things along the way. These old TV's used to be a great source for copper for anyone looking to recycle. I test the idea of how much copper is actually in one of these TV's. The final result - Let's just say I wasn't too happy with it. I like doing bigger melts, Even tho it's not always gonna happen....

I really wanted to finish melting down everything from the travel trailer in this video. But there was just too much to do and not enough time. So I focused on getting the rest of the aluminum melted for now. I will melt the brass and copper next week. I am simply amazed at how much aluminum came from this trailer. A lot more than I expected. Try to guess what the total amount is without cheati...

I've been collecting slag for awhile now. I have a sh!tton of it. I needed to make space for other things, so I thought it would be a good Idea to melt it all down. Disclaimer: I made a mistake. I was in a hurry and forgot to consider safety first. I experienced a steam explosion because I tried to rush a pour without hearing my molds. It freaked me out a little bit. luckily, I didn't get hurt ...

What kind of accuracy you getting with those cast boolits
Well I haven't quite setup my reloading press yet. I'm almost there. Once I do, I'll make a video on that as well as the test firing off them
another great session brother love how it's all in normal time awesome man
Thanks bro. I appreciate it.
So KEEP COPPER AWAY FROM IRON MOLDS! When extracting copper out of solution IT BONDS TO IRON. So copper has a VERY CLINGY AFFECTION with iron. 😊 If you use iron mold put grafite power in first when pouring copper. Small crucible 4 small molds. 😎 I LOVE watching new scrappers because it HOPEFULLY keeps me from making same mistakes. 💖 from Minnesota
Я бы такими стрелять бы не стал...😂
These are experimental only. 👍
This is awesome
Thanks bro
Just found your channel and subscribed. Making freedom seeds. All the movement was a little bit hard to deal with but a good video. I have not done a melt or a video since September. I miss doing it. I had some issues pop up and had to take a break and then I have just been so busy with work. I need to start back up. Got to make time.
Well, at least you'll know what caused your cancer later in life. Maybe wear some gloves next time. 🤷♂️
I wanted to watch the video but it made me motion sick with all the movement. You can move the camera just not continuously. But the topic is something I would be interested in seeing and any problem solving you had to do to make it work is useful too.
I appreciate the feedback. Thank you
Take your video away from the head nobody's going to watch it
very nice ingots these , a bit lead there too , you got some nice scrap brother love watching
Thank you bro.
Maybe you can help me. Is it really worth separating and smelting it all down??? I have read a lot of forums about this and most say it’s not worth the effort. Is this true????? Because I have always been a hard worker and considered getting into this to make some money.
sacrificial blade on a circular saw will make quick work of cutting those up.
man o man that a lot cans a lot dross as well you got some good ingots though I would'nt even tackle this bloody great job mate
Thank you bro. Yes. It was a lot. But I'm happy with the results. 👍
@@AmericanArtillery yeah I'd be happy also cans turn e away as there alot dross involved tried it ages ago now everyone here collects cans to get money so I reckon it's not worth it here in Australia
I was going to do a can melt this week but I didn’t have enough time. The cans are mounting up. Nice video
Thank you bro. I knew it would take awhile. But I didn't know just how long. Melting cans definitely takes awhile. 👍
@@AmericanArtillery 🤣😂yeah they take a long time I tend to break it down in 50can a time then scrap the dross then another 50 I find it helps break down the time
@@meltingipswich Not a bad Idea. 👍
Good video…you should be close to getting monitzed right?
Ya. I need about 150 more subscribers. I'm almost there. 👍
Nice, very good of you to share your first attempts, flaws and all. Good work, nice to watch!
Thank you
The 36 inch tube tv i broke down recently, the degaussing cable was 2.5lbs of copper by itself. So each is very different. I wouldn't pass them by.
Keep it up brother awsome ingots
Thanks bro. I appreciate that. 👍
How bout magnet to remove steel, float it to remove plastic, then sort it and dry.
Well, you never know how much something has unless you open it up. It's ok 😊. Now ya know. Glad that thing is gone. I was tired of looking at it 😂😂😂. You still got something out of it so that's a positive. On to the next... ❤
That was the coolest fridge
Ya it was. And if it worked I would've found a good use for it. 👍
This is excellent! a couple things to note: 1)The moisture content of Casting sand is paramount so keep it close to spec (you can use a Moisture meter for this) 2) also keeping sand Clean and uniform creates better molds Hope this helps.
Thanks bro
Bravo or Fox?
You would be better off glueing a bunch of bullets to sticks and then to a pice of wood and ram it all together in one go. Each time you push into the sand you will distort the other holes and basically ruin them. Also the oil based casting sand isnt great for copper as it gets to hot, your better off with a water sand mixture, as it wont burn.. and pour a lot hotter, so it pours better..
Ya. Well this was an experiment. I'm gonna redo this project at some point with a better plan. Thank you for the feedback. 👍
Good video good job
Thank you
Another melt brother , not sure i'll get out this weekend raining great session mate
Thank you bro.
Good job , you're adding to your collection . Keep melting and stay safe . Have an awesome weekend .
Thanks bro
Lots of trash leftovers from that melt. More slag than I thought it would be. Too bad it doesn't have more copper. The donation centers won't even take the old TVs anymore.
Ya. I was bummed with how much I got. Lessons learned. 👍
Good job
Thank you
Good work 👊👊
Thank you bro
I think the number one goal for any bullet is accuracy. Nice looking bullets. I cast for my .357 magnum rifle. The most accurate bullet I cast is a Lee C358-200-RF. These bullets are the correct diameter, but can be a bit too long loaded into .357 cases and are likely to jam in a lever rifle. My rifle is a single shot so it isn't a problem. The Lee 358-125-RF shoots fairly well for me at both slow and fast velocities... I've pushed them up to around 1500 fps lubed with Lee Liquid Alox. I never got the accuracy I desired from the Lee SWC bullets, but I prefer to shoot at slower speeds and I probably would have achieved better groups at faster velocities. I have stopped bothering about adding tin or antimony to my lead. I like to feel free to use whatever scrap I can find. I mostly shoot these bullets just under the speed of sound. I do my casting in an outside shed with the door kept open for ventilation, and lately I've been wearing a fine particle mask to avoid inhaling the dust created by the slag. I wear leather gloves when casting, and I avoid hitting the mould to release the bullets. Sometimes they fall out when I simply shake the mould, sometimes I push them with a gloved finger. I would not eat or drink anywhere near the area where I cast. In addition to my Lee moulds, I have some made by Cast Bullet Engineering in Australia which are very good. I have two CBE semiwadcutter moulds that I like... one is a 210 grain and the other is a 140 grain. I have to size both of these to get them into case more easily. If I had to pick just one of my CBE moulds, it would currently be the CBE358-180-RFBB which casts bullets with a bevel base which makes reloading a lot easier. These seem to be the most accurate of my CBE bullets over a range of speeds and when lubed with either a home-brewed wax lube or the very convenient Lee Alox. Best wishes from New Zealand.
Very good sir. Interesting idea to melt down an rv. I'm liking the channel. Keep up the good work
Thank you
Добрый день или вечер. Не знаю по какому вы времени живёте. Я так понял из ролика - обход своих владений.А можно поинтересоваться в каком штате живете? Горы класс.
You should get a gopro to record pov footage👍
Good idea
Привет из России. Хорошее видео. Люблю смотреть на досуге как всё разбирают и расплавляют.
You’re onto something good here, keep it up and you’ll be great. I see a lot of D stacking in your videos. Get a PO Box so fans can send you things
Thank you bro, I've been thinking about doing that. Just not sure if it's worth it yet.
@@AmericanArtillery you’re getting there, keep it up
@@tomahawktom7595 Thank you bro
Hopefully you get monetized soon.. keep up the good work
I really hope you are wearing a respirator mask while melting lead. Even outside it is very toxic to breathe.
man so much there your stack has gotta been getting high enjoyed it man
I'm going to be showing the stack I have when I clean all these ingots up . This project has just added a hell of a lot to it.
Great video series . Yeah there's a lot of work taking a motorhome apart and melting everything .
Thank you bro. It definitely was a lot of work. I love the final outcome tho. 👍
What are your plans in the future to do with the stack?
I haven't quite decided what I will do with it yet. For now, I'm just enjoying watching it grow. 👍
You have some serious aluminium there that is a nice stack 👍
The challenge is gonna be where to put it all. Lol
Lot more work than a person would think . Great job ' MR. DESTRUCTO' .
That's a lot of work . How about an estimate of what the value will be if you were to sell the ingots at a scrap yard and also to individuals . I had several large solid drops of brass and aluminum that I sold on Ebay and they sold really quick and the prices were quite a bit higher than I thought they would sell for . Home crafters and they were begging for more . Good video .
Thank you bro. I will include all the stats of this project when it's finished including the total value.
Well that was kinda embarrassing. Better luck next time!
It'd be nice if shedders were cheaper. It'd be perfect for something like this. I could use one every week
You need to use a respirator when melting that stuff down. The fumes can cause health problems, like seeing pink elephants. That light at the end of the tunnel is not a train. It's the ambulance talking you to the ER.
This is a bloody massive haul mate , 111 ingots 2 big days some that scrap I would went nah but seeing the end result holy shit bro great melt brother !
Thank you bro. It's a hell of a lot of work. I'm gonna include all the stats of this project when I complete it. Overall, it has been well worth the work. 👍
You need study learn from BigStackD RUclips... no offense... you doin hurt yourself on video., I can't stand you may burn yourself someday. Be careful dude
Which part are you referring to?
