    Another super long one today guys and gals so you'll need to sit back with two drinks instead of one. Haven't been to the scrapyard for awhile so drove down there to find something interesting. I'm not exactly sure what it is so let me know if you know . A heap of ingots from it and some other bits and pieces. A Triple melt today hence the extra long video. So sit back relax take it easy and I'll see you beautiful people next Friday. And have an awesome weekend😀👋🏻.

    If anyone was wondering that gel looking stuff he played around with is called seal-gard it’s designed to seal sensitive electronics dirt and moisture so that component is most likely the control center of the whole thing

    • @OddlyIncredible
      @OddlyIncredible Год назад +13

      Looked like a three-phase SCR/triac to me, which would be used for high-current AC mains switching and/or phase control. Probably part of a motor speed controller of some manner. The real control center of the thing was probably the big IC on the first circuit board, which was some sort of digital signal processor (DSP) from Texas Instruments.

      I was working in the appliance industry when they started putting computer boards in their machines and I'd see that gel all the time on refrigerator boards because the moisture inside refrigerators would take them out. Eventually someone got the bright idea to put the boards on the back of the refrigerators and run the wires through the box.

    @genegreigh8913 Год назад +6

    Please never apologize for the "extra long break down." For some of us, that's the best part! My "gun-to-the-head" bet, based on the MASSIVE copper coil, plus TWO cooling fans and that big aluminum radiator, as well as what looked like a couple of hefty capacitors, is you broke down a high-powered transformer or control module, either subordinate to some other industrial process, or a stand-alone rig. You're also either lucky or careful and smart you didn't get hurt. Who knows how long that device had been waiting? Old capacitors have been known to bite. My other guess is you already know how to check for charge with something other than a wet finger.

    Very nice 3-phase pump controller. The control board is a Texas Instruments TMS320 24Cx microprocessor with digital signal processing functions, RAM, ROM and some communications I/O. The secondary board also has a smaller microcontroller and the relays and mega 1500uF electrolytic capacitors are expensive - $50 a pop. Great choice to recycle! Not that old either.

    You could always add dilute nitric acid to the silver contacts. The silver in them would go into solution as silver nitrate and and be taken out by adding metallic copper. The copper would replace the silver nitrate in solution and precipitate out and you'd have your silver. The only problem is this method doesn't easily recover the copper used. You'd have to do the same sort of thing again with a more active metal (e.g. Aluminium) which would form aluminium nitrate in solution and give you your copper metal back. There may be other ways, but that's the simplest I can think of.

    Edit:

    Fun fact- I believe the beetle that you saved was a female dung beetle (a general guess, feel free to specify if you know!). Super important for the environment, thanks for saving the little lady :)

    I really like that you are pulling "junk" from the salvage yard and spending the time and energy to separate it into valuable parts and then rubbish. Makes me want to do this when I retire for real in a few years.

    Wow! I’m in awe of the beautiful landscape! I hope it never gets old to you! I love your videos. My favorite part is when you take things apart to gather the metals…and I just adore the love and affection you give your dogs. You are a man that appreciates life’s simple pleasures. And of course watching you pour that red hot copper isn’t bad either! Well, take care…

    IDEA: Sandcast your RUclips button and polish out a perfect replica. Then melt it down on April fool's day, and watch the chaos. You could even get two videos out of it, because the week after you could post "the making" of your RUclips button.

      Normally I don't correct spelling except to annoy people who are being annoying, but I'm making an exception here because "dissembly" means putting on a false appearance, concealing facts using pretense... and I don't think you meant to call BigStackD a liar haha. It's "disassemblies"
