HOW I MIRROR FINISH A BAR
I start with an 80 grit flap disc on my angle grinder then I use my drill with 50 mm round sanding discs . I start with 150 grit then go through the following Grits 240-400-800 Then once I get to the following Grits I use a small squirt of WD-40 1200-1500-2000-2500-3000. The WD40 helps to lubricate the discs and stops the sanding disk binding up with the metal powder . Then after that I use my buffer wheel on my bench grinder to get a perfect mirrored finish on it.

Dumpster Diving - Motor Melt Down - ASMR Metal Melting - Trash To Treasure - BigStackD Copper Cast
Being an American with sleep issues is a godsend for a channel like yours who uploads this late.
Unless you’re just getting of work 👌
@@IXGRAVEMINDXI Jokes on you, I'm At work xD
For me its already 10am 😂
Nothing like that 5am bickstackd notification
Living in Caucasian and getting the video at the noon😂
Another excellent melt! The new place is shaping up very nicely. I like the Nordic Gold melts best. 👍🏻
Your awesome thanks buddy, I’ve had a bad few days been so busy and everything that could go wrong did go wrong including the uploads of this video and other bits and pieces but everything will fall in place it always eventually does. Thanks again for your continued support buddy I really appreciate it👊🏻😁
@@bigstackD hope you're doing better, buddy!
Ditto on the Nordic gold!
Hey can you put a solar panel plant and use that electricity to run electric furnace and melt metal eco-friendly way?
Hey, thanks for your contribution to D.
He's awesome cause he don't shill!
If you've got a lot of stuff too look at the video!
I've learned so much from him already!
Can't wait to get that furnace and Some nice graphite molds made; and those sweet ingot stamps from D's friend (major hook-up!)!
I LOVE the recent bird content we're getting! The crow was always in the background of the old videos, but it's nice to see him and the Magpie getting some screentime now!
I deadass thought it was a penguin at first lol!
I'm naming the bird Nugget to go with the dogs- Ingot, Bullion and Nugget!
1-Copper, Nordic Gold.
2-Yes, to unboxing the fan mail.
3-I enjoy watching all 3 types. Coins are fun. It’s interesting to see how much detail you can achieve with each type of metal. And Sand-casting is always suspenseful. I really like your 3D print designs. Wouldn’t mind seeing a little more of you designing and making them. It’s been awhile.
Love seeing you in the new space. Treasure room looks great. For me, it's ingots and coins over sandcasting. And I'd enjoy seeing you unbox your fanmail. Cheers!
Copper twizzlers and any dust/ slag melt is always top notch. Started off a Nordic gold guy, but copper is where it’s really at
just this man's sense of humor. top notch content.
you mean the clown? edit: the clown caught me off guard
I love watching you scoop slag out of aluminum. I need a compilation video please 😎🤭
You could easily do hour or two long videos and I would still watch them. I like the pacing and how you jump from different thing to another, animals especially are my favorite and complex melts are the best, thank you for making awesome content.
A fan mail unboxing would be great! And definitely about time to get that kiln going!
Could be pretty neat to see the fan mail being opened! Can't wait to see your kiln working, that's a whole different angle. And as always seeing the Boy's out and about is always great to see, I understand your worries for them, you guys have somethings the rest of the world has no experience with! Thanks for the video.
The copper melts are so beautiful to watch.
I like watching copper melts. I like coin and ingot casting but an occasional sand casting is fun to watch. Loving the videos. Greetings from Oregon, USA.
I like your birds. And Ingot and Bullion are just awesome. I also like the birds in the videos from Kurtis and Karen at Cutting Edge Engineering in Queensland, and I like his Staffy pal Homeless Bignutz. After watching you folks, I have visiting Australia on my bucket list. Thanks for all your hard work making these videos.
Copper is by far my favorite watching you melt. It’s beautiful when you buff it and it’s beautiful when you don’t.
I'm torn... I love watching copper freeze, but there's a satisfaction in watching the aluminum get skimmed. Enjoyed and I love the new place. Hope all is well.
I don't really have a preference on anything as long as you keep up the quality like always I will watch till the end every time
I was halfway through when you re-uploaded this. Watching again.
I think my favorite metal that you work with is copper. I love the way it freezes, how it melts, and the eerie green flames it gives off sometimes.
My favorite metal to watch melt is copper. I feel it looks the best when pouring. I also like watching bullion and I got melt when you give them ear scratchys! Also fan mail sounds awesome!!
For personal pieces I make, I prefer copper or Silver. But for your melts, Nordic Gold is always a unique viewing pleasure!
It's eerie how similar the sounds are there to here in the backwoods of Texas. I heard the frogs and I was like 'that's weird, they don't usually make noise this time of day' and then I realized they were your frogs and not mine. Congrats on the new spread and I hope you love it there!
Its kinda why i fell in love to begin with. Besides the awesome melts. It really sounds and looks like home!
crickets mate ;)
I know nothing about metallurgy but this is how I feel about each metal after watching your channel for close to a year now:
Copper- Class melt, the red is a really nice color, it often comes out of recoveries quite and is and the process of taking it out of wires seems satisfying
Aluminum- silver is a nice color, and it seems quite easy to melt, the slag at the end always seems to have a lot of extra aluminum so I like the fact that you take care to not waste anything.
Brass- definitely least favorite, I can understand why someone might like gold but it often looks like sulfur when smelted and seems like the dirtiest of the metals to melt. Still great though
I like the deconstruction of the various things. Great way to get a heads up when I give it ago. Always learning, keep up the great work.
Great vid! I love the results of your Nordic Gold melts. Shiney! But I think I like the low melt point metals (Zinc, Tin). Makes for a quick project!
Aww yeah a Motor Melt! Those are always fun to watch. The Slag bubble looked really cool. And copper has to be my favorite melt metal.
Your content is content I didn't even know how much I needed in my life. So satisfying to watch you do your thing every week! Love the new place!
My favorite metal to see melted? 🤔 I love watching the little frost-feathers form on the surface of copper as it freezes solid, but I love the clean, mirror-like pours of molten aluminum, too~🥰
When this video came out yesterday 11/3 I was beyond stoked. Then you made me wait. Lol. Always worth it BigstackD!
Love watching you tear stuff apart to melt. I like watching all metals melt, so it is hard to really choose just one. They all have their allures, but I guess I would have to say copper and it’s alloys. Any pour is good, ingot, coin, sand cast, shot. Awesome video. Cheers 🍻
My favorite metal to watch melt has to be aluminum. I love how you get a 2/3 full crucible and then just start pushing pieces into it and they melt pretty much right away. So satisfying to watch.
Likes and observations:
I like the blend of casting and sand moulds in one vid. However, not opposed to a full sand mould vid, esp if it’s something functional you’ll use in the shop.
I like the smaller to medium coins and objects.
Your benches look wobbly. I suggest some diagonal bracing for the legs for rigidity and maybe anchor the back to the wall. Just a suggestion.
I’d like to see a kiln relining and then casting vid. I know you have a big kiln coming, but I’d still watch it.
Fan Mail. Yes. Maybe not everything, but def the good stuff. Maybe hi light some viewers creations. Also, maybe an open and melt, or an open and use vid. I know it’d make the vids longer but I’d still watch for sure.
Sand casting for objects you’ll use in the shop. Knobs, handles, small hammer or small tools or specialized objects for your needs.
Thanks for all your great content. Been a fan for years.
I’m surprised you didn’t build a separate room in the shed with ventilation to do your smelting when it’s raining. Loving the new place. Can’t wait for the boys to move in. Thanks D 🍻👍
You should do a video of fan Mail and I like the Nordic gold. I like both castings
I love your reaction to the copper melts and the bulk of aluminum melts, nordic gold's complexity. Fan mail would be fun to see
I like watching Nordic Gold because it’s something you don’t see a lot. And I like aluminum because of its shiny-ness. 😀 I prefer sand casting. And Yes to fan mail…new things to melt! The pie irons take me back to my camping days as a kid.
I like the variations of melts that you do. Don't change anything!
Great video, love the new digs!! Definitely Nordic gold. Yes seeing the fan mail would be a great bonus. 🍻
A mix of all your castings is great. I love the Boys and wait in anticipation to see the stack grow, as well as your sock designs. Keep up the good work. Ken from Secunda, South Africa.
nice job of it the copper bar turned out great. thank you for sharing 😊
A couple things:
- My favorite metal to melt is aluminium just because the slag looks like foam and it's fun to watch.
- The copper bar's half rough looks freaking awesome.
- Yes you should do fan mail opening videos, it'd be cool to see what people send you. Also you can thank them on a video.
Thanks again for the friday entertainment D!
Copper has to be my favorite, just the shine off of it in the crucible is mesmerizing
I like the ingots and coins and the sand casting. It's both interesting to me :)
I've only discovered your chanel rather recently, but have watched quite a few of your videos already. To me they are entertaining (I like your humour) and interesting. I also like how you include your doggies and the birds and how your new shack grows 👍
The copper bar was really nice imho. 👍
Yes! Open fan mail, it’s always interesting to see if there’s something just for you and us or if the doggos ever get mail too.
I love that pie iron. When I was a kid, we called them 'pudgy pies'. They would usually be filled with pie filling or peanut butter and jelly and baked in a camp fire. Usually in Wisconsin. We still have them in the pantry, but don't get chances to use them. Your shop looks wonderful!
What is “pie filling”
@@boarbot7829 Premade fruit filling for making fruit pies. For example, cherry or apple.
@@shawnwright4129 ah ok.
That's so many tags now!! I remember you hanging the second or third one several years ago. Congrats on the growth between them and now
I don't know why, but that round piece just rolling away at the 5:22 mark legitimately made me laugh out loud! 😂 Another wonderful video as always, and I'm thrilled about your new space - I can't wait to watch you evolve and grow into it! You're so close to your weight goal - you'll have to do something huge once you reach 1 ton! Sending love from the US!
i think a fan mail and mini melt episode would be a cool change up.. as always another great video.
I like the way copper melts more than anything. Would definitely like to see your fan mail! Also, one of the knife making channels, not sure if I can say which one, had some angle grinder cut off wheels sent to him from a company called Graf. A diamond edge metal cutter and a wood blade. The metal cutter performed well on steel but I'd be interested to see what a diamond blade would do to Aluminum or Copper....
I like watching the copper melt, the aluminum pour, and the way the Nordic gold polishes up pretty.
I love nordic gold melt's due to their shine and I do hope the move in for the boys is smooth. They will love the yard to play around in. Plus you should also add in the fan mail in a future video, maybe put it with the redoing the furnace interior.
Really enjoy watching your melts. Very satisfying!
Can't say I prefer one metal over another, nor whether I prefer sand casting over ingots and coins. They're all fun to watch!
You should definitely do a fan mail video!
Thanks for sharing the great content and your boys! Cheers!!
I like the copper and Nordic gold melts the best. Also like both ingots and coins
Awww your boys sure miss their dad. Great melt as usual BigD.
A Nordic Gold melt is always satisfying to watch , I'm loving the new place, keep it up the good work man !!! Love from Brazil ✌🏾
Enjoying your sand casting as you’ve improved your technique over time
[5:21] The part where the metal wheel rolled away after you hit it was hilarious xD
It was trying to escape
I love when the crucible is empty and you flip the drip back onto the edge of the crucible. I'm always like, "do the flip!”
YES! Yes to fan mail videos 🥰 or at least let them be a portion of the vid if they're not interesting enough for their own episode 😉
My favorite is nordic gold so far. But if i could chose, i would love to see a green alloy being made or cast.
The new melt shack is awesome everything has it place, trophy room is spectacular and yes open up the fan mail on video. Looking forward to next weeks video.
We like it all and yes to the fan mail.
We LOVE seeing the boys. ❤️
Loved todays episode.. Since you have a wood burner (stove/fireplace) you could pre-melt stuff.. Like put the copper in it to burn off the paint & resin.. It would work for other metals too.. I used to do lots of scrapping and always melted my metals to ingots, (Pays more money) I had a huge wood burner in my garage.. It actually was a small Incinerator, yet they are large compared to a normal wood burner.. Worked great for me for 20+ years.. Never had large amounts of slag, pre-burning them..
When he said melt a motor I was thinking “Oh he’ll probably just pull the winding out of the stator and melt that.” Nah, man’s straight up melted the whole damn thing lol
I love aluminum melts best. Something about the foamy dough-like slag is very satisfying. Also I love when you stick a cold piece in some thats already molten and it just crumbles like its made of of clay or something. It's the most unique melt imo.
Yay! I was missing my Friday melt to start the day. Then the video started acting up, saying it was private. I panicked! The fully it's working now. I don't know what I would've done without my dose of Friday melt. I would've had a meltdown. Thanks for continually bringing us the best content on RUclips. Please stay safe and have a great weekend, my friend.
Edit: My favorite melt metal has to be copper. Nothing beats that deep orange color. It looks angry for some reason.
I like watching you melt any metals but new or rare metals that you don't usually melt are always exciting to watch, plus taking apart old motors and separating the metal is always good to watch too. Actually everything you do is great to watch.
muito legal ver esse trabalho em meio a natureza.... perfeito!!!!
I like that the copper turns the shades of blue and purple when you hit it with a torch. Such beautiful colors.
I'd be interested to see fan mail opening videos, just so long as they don't replace the usual Friday melt videos. Lol and I personally prefer ingots and coins over sand casting. :)
yup and yup. I agree
I really like watching you do copper tbh. It has such a nice colour.
Love to see you melting copper that’s my favorite. Have you or would you consider doing any lost wax casting? That is truly amazing to see! Cheers
He has done lost wax before 👍
By far copper melts are my favorite. I like a mixture of end product, coin, sand castings, or ingots, you have a good mix.
I especially like the motor melts.
Nice place you have there!
Definitely enjoy the regular casting, and finding random pieces of scrap to break down into various metals the best. Love your channel!
Great video! I really love your new place. You are going to grow into it well. For Sand, casting you really need to obsess over your molds. Parting lines, sprue, cope and drag etc. just like Windy Hill foundry does.
In terms of favorite type of metal being seen melted, probably copper. Its very satisfying seeing it go from whatever wiring it was used in, to being molded into bright shiny brown ingots. Doesn't seem too terrible to work with, either. For least favorite, definitely aluminum. Seems like a pain in the ass to work with, and there always seems to be loads of slag during the whole process, so messy on top of that, too...
For the question about the fan mail opening, I think it could be fun for sure to see what all comes in! Maybe designate it to Saturday or Sunday if you end up deciding on making videos on it. I know I would tune in, for sure
I would have to say Nordic gold. 🇸🇪😇
But the common aluminium looks so fun to play with. 👏👏👏
Then again, I really enjoy seeing you melt the more precious and rare metals so I’ll go with that. 😃
I like watching the copper cool down in the ice block and reveal its color. And when the aluminum freezes back into a solid in the molds.
Man, you’re so fortunate to have such a beautiful shop.
West coast American here who has always had sleep issues for years.
I love your videos. BTW, love the socks! Cowabunga!
I like all metal melts but I truly love copper since it's my other first favorite besides silver. In regards to what I prefer in what the metal becomes, I like them all and I just can't pick a favorite, don't think I could.
It would be nice to see you open fan mail in video.
Much love and respect.
I was literally watching some of your previous motor melting videos yesterday, it's like you were watching me, but i ain't complaining, it's nice to watch what you got~
Im in the boat of preferring ingots and coins, simply because I like being able to actually see the molds fill up as you pour, it's very satisfying to watch. But at the same time, an occasional sand cast gets no complaints from me, as I get to see something different and unique when they happen
Run a waterline to your shop. Should be super easy and will be such a huge help. Great video as always!
I think Aluminum is my favorite to watch pour, but brass and bronze are probably my favorite to watch melt. I also really like the metal mixing you did for Nordic gold.
This melt was amazing I think it was really good keep up the good content hope to see more amazing content like this keep it up
Video idea you should make a call of duty themed coin or bar
It was like a giant aluminum slag soufflé!
Let's see... I do love the aluminum melts. So pretty and shiny! Even the slag is interesting. Then again, the nordic gold is beautiful. I love how putting all those metals together results in gold! Also, the copper melts are so awesome... green flames, the liquid metal color is gorgeous, the way you blowtorch the metal and it takes on this rainbow sheen...
Oh, right... the question was "What's your favorite metal melt?"... um... you want me to choose just one???
And yes, open your fan mail. Why not? It'd be kind of cool!
"Do you prefer sand casting or ingots and coins?" -- Yes. 😛
Those melts at the end looked so yummy and I always enjoy seeing the Frenchies cuddling up together and with you.
Treasure room looks awesome, never gets old seeing it. To answer your question, I like to see copper being melted.
Always look forward to a new video. Thanks for your great work.
Hey D, I love watching your melts. My favorite is the Nordic gold. I love the melting of the different metals together to make it!
@14:38 - Aluminum suffle? This one was pretty interesting to watch. I like the mould pours with the sand a lot. I always find the prep for those relaxing when I used to do it for myself with silver back when I hobbied at jewelry-making. Mind you, that was on a much smaller scale than BigStackD ever does in his shop.
New shop is nice! When I scrap stuff I put all the screws/nuts/bolts/etc in an empty peanut butter jar and give it away to locals in the retro hobbies. :)
Thanks!
You bet Jimmie😁
Really enjoy your camera work with the molten copper. I’d love to see you melt sterling silver or take another trip to the Perth Mint for a purchase.
I've been working in a foundry for the last year now, your wooden boxes for sand casting are smaller versions of the steel frames we use for our sand casting 😎🤙 I love Fridays! Always means I have no trouble sleeping when I get home from work and then I rewatch after I get up to see what I missed hahaha
We also need to keep thousands of pounds of weights on our casting frames so the gas build-up doesn't make the frames blow apart hahaha
I've been a moulder for 13 years and always use a riddle while puting on the facing sand to a pattern surface makes a much nicer finish with less to no voids on the casting surface
you can just make one with some 1/4 inch wire mesh and a 3 inch frame
Doggies in the treasure room!
I prefer the smaller coins, too. They look like they feel nicer in the hand.
Favorite thing to watch melt has got to be a bit of bronze mmm something about those green flames and the color of the metal as it cools is dope 👌
BigStackD you're just full of questions this week, aye? Ok, in order:
1. Favorite metal to watch melt: its a tie between Silver and Copper
2. Should you make fan mail unboxing vids? YES!
3. Sand casting or ingots/coins? IMO you strike the perfect balance already. About 10-20% sandcast and 80+% ingots/coins. The variety is nice. 👌
Yes, please open some fan mail in the video. The best parts of sand casting are when you super speed pound the sand and when the fire pops out of the second hole.
Most times when I'm taking a thing apart I have to repair it, then put it back together, watching you smash and cut things to bits is very satisficing!
Could you do a video where you melt down the rest of the brass bullet casings, and you could you turn them into brass throwing knives.
