    Now today is a big addition to the stack. I was very happy and quite surprised with just how much Copper I got out of this old beast. A lot of blood sweat and tears in this week's video so I hope you enjoy it but most importantly I hope you've had a great week And you have an amazing weekend. Thanks for the ongoing support. I appreciate it every time you tune in. Take care BSafe and speak with you all soon👋🏻😁.
    And hope to see you all next Friday🫠

      please get yourself a larger slab for pouring, you have so much trouble with things falling off, its about time you spoil yourself with a new one thats bigger.

    Expect to see my wife and I every Friday. We come home from work and get cleaned up,find a bite to eat and cuddle up to the lovely sounds of that beautiful copper being poured into those molds. It's become a ritual now for a couple years. We absolutely love and enjoy the channel my Aussie friend. Our favorite part is all of the many critters you have running around as you melt. Thank you for bringing a little piece of Australia into our lives, one day our dream is to come visit there and see all the crazy wildlife and everything else it has to offer. Thanks for all your hard work to entertain my wife and plus the millions of others that get joy from watching.❤ God bless and stay safe 🙏

      Yeah mate, all good buddy. Thanks again. You’re a champion. Hopefully all goes well on your end next week you get some new toys then I get a new old toy that’s gonna be pretty cool , if not not to worry but you never know. Hot as hell today probably 90% bloody humidity the entire day than when I’m just about to mow the lawn it starts raining so I thought bugger it ill mow anyway , then had a flat battery on the ride on jumped it off The Jeep started mowing, blocked it all up threw a belt and now it’s sitting in the middle of the property getting rained and it won’t start 🤦🏻‍♂️
      a nice cold beer would certainly help that situation out👍🏻. Have a good weekend buddy. Catch up with you soon.

    I imagine the bit of the motor you sometimes start a fire in would be great as a fire pit, makes me tempted to see if I can find one and snag it at some point. 😂
    My favorite vids are always the motor breakdowns and the out of the ordinary object breakdowns, always a treat! 😁

    Take care of your hands man!! I'm sure you already know but heat that copper up to the point of color change and it will soften it right up and make it much easier on your hands to twist in to bunches. Love the videos, been watching for years!

    Another great show. I wish you would set yourself up a better pouring platform so that you have more space for the molds and the bars as you turn them out. You also need to design a machine that will twist the copper strands into crucible ready bundles instead of ruining your hands. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.

    Hey Mr. StackD! Another great vid! Those blisters though...eek! If I could make a recommendation I'd say get some better work gloves. Those rubber dipped woven fabric ones are great in a pinch, but as you've learned are good for getting a grip on tools and handles, but not gripping stuff directly and twisting. See if you can get your hands on some Mechanix gloves or similar with leather or neoprene palms. Great for manipulating stuff and dedecent life to them. Spend the money on a good pair. You'll save in the long run since you'll buy them less often. I also found Ironclad HEATWORX gloves that are great around the forge with silicon grips that let you pick up still hot ingots and molds (not red hot fresh, but still oven hot/boiling hot)

      I also wonder that orange would it be a temp heat to temp poured and quenched at learning the process still always loved working with wood and steal. Cause it would be cool if you could create it like the fools gold. Cause when I start making medals for my nonprofit discgolf course would be cool to pour "gold" medals cheers 🍻

    • @bigstackD
      @bigstackD  7 часов назад +1

      Mate, if you wanna pour the best looking golden colour simply do
      95% Copper
      5% aluminium
      by weight. Put them in the crucible together and melt away. There won’t be anything to worry about , no flareups no problems at all and no dramas like you will get with the Nordic gold. This mix I mentioned above just give it a stir Before you pour , skim the crap off the top and pour away mate and you’ll get a golden colour even better than Nordic gold. It’s just aluminium bronze but with a different percentage and it’s almost as strong as steel so if you ever get a chance to do it I highly recommend it because you will love it
