Thank you very much for your comments! 😊👍👍 Capacitors are very sneaky... Many people have the wrong impression that once you unplug the device you are safe. This is not always the case...
we just had to replace our 20 year old microwave oven that went kaputt with a new one. i had an interest in the magnets but not sure it would be worth the trouble so i will recycle it through our town program. i did enjoy watching you do it at high speed, thnx for the info and show.
Thanks for all the warnings and tips. I have had a microwave for years that doesn't work and I was thinking of taking it apart and taking the magnet, but after seeing the video I'm afraid to mess with it. Greetings from Jordan, the Middle East❤❤
Just recently found out that any non heavy duty commercial grade equipment will be using aluminum oxide as a coating instead of beryllium oxide. That changed a while back, so unless its a fairly old microwave you won't need to worry about berylliosis
Just came across your YT Channel, Excellent video on how to dismantle a microwave (I have one that I want to do the same too) so now I’ve just subscribed 😄
@@RustisGold torx with the stud in the middle 6 sided I used a triangle file to file some of the stud out a hack saw to do a little more and then a flat head to unscrew.
I honestly can’t see the manufacturer’s using berillium oxide for the ceramic insulators. It’s crazy expensive and fatally toxic. The Color of the coating seems to be some sort of aluminum oxide and possibly chromium. Chromium has a pinkish or purple Color.
@@RustisGold for sure. Especially if it came from China lol. It’s definitely not something too mess around with. I always hazmat up when dealing with magnetrons lol.
The magnetron it’s self can also hold some charge for a period of time. If a person is not comfortable with high voltage electronics it’s probably better they leave it alone lol. Amazing amount of power for such a commonly used appliance.
Αδερφέ είδα τη σημαία στον τοίχο, και εγώ είμαι Έλληνας (από Αμερική). Πολύ ενδιαφέρον το βίντεό σου, είναι εύκολο να εξηγήσεις ποιο είναι το κομμάτι του magnetron που δεν πρέπει να πειραχτεί γιατί έχει το Βερύλιο; Είναι αυτό με τα πτερύγια ανάμεσα στους μαγνήτες ή το κεραμικό τμήμα που έδειξες; Σε ευχαριστώ να σαι καλά!
Γειά σου φίλε μου! Σε ευχαριστώ πολύ! Να είσαι καλά! Το κεραμικό τμήμα είναι αυτό που περιέχει Βερύλιο. Απλά αφαιρείς το συγκεκριμένο τμήμα. Είναι επικίνδυνο μόνο εάν θρυμματιστεί και εισπνεύσεις την σκόνη του. 😊👍
I was just joking! 😊👍 You should make a RUclips video! "... How to remove microwave oven magnets in less than 30 seconds!!..." It would be really cool! 😊👍
If one leaves the door & latch on, the shell makes a good bread box, as long as the hole left by the magnetron's removal is capped with something non-chewable. (LOL What can I say... I live "out-in-the-boonies," where rodents are just a fact of life... Also, I have large dogs, who would consider a cat a tasty snack...)
I was expecting to see some badass magnets like from computer hard drives. Those just seemed to be cheap magnets you get from ordinary speakers. 😐 Just my personal opinion, but not worth the effort of getting cheapy magnets like that. Interesting video though.
Thank you very much for your comments. I was also curious to see how strong these magnets were. I don't know why you got the impression from the video that they're just cheap magnets but believe me, they are quite strong! 😊👍

Excellent safety tips. I’ve been saying “discharge capacitor” first for years. Five people I know of personally that have been injured. Nice job!
Thank you very much for your comments! 😊👍👍 Capacitors are very sneaky... Many people have the wrong impression that once you unplug the device you are safe. This is not always the case...
I learned things I didn't know and how much attention you have to give where you think it's easy.Well done Mike.
Thanks Bro!!!

Thank you very much for your comments! I wasn't aware of this... 😊👍
I want to send him a small fast electric drill, so he doesn't have to use a slow screwdriver. 😂
😂😂

Thank you very much!!!
There are also other DIY videos on my channel you might like! 😊👍
Mine are torx screws. 10 different screwdrivers and not one fits. Any ideas?
This is strange... What kind of screws are these?
@@RustisGold torx with the stud in the middle 6 sided I used a triangle file to file some of the stud out a hack saw to do a little more and then a flat head to unscrew.
It is an excellent in detail and safety instruction
Thank you very much! 😊👍
What do you do with all the other parts? What do you make with them
I recycled the rest of the parts. The transformers can be used for some projects but I didn't do anything with them.
I honestly can’t see the manufacturer’s using berillium oxide for the ceramic insulators. It’s crazy expensive and fatally toxic. The Color of the coating seems to be some sort of aluminum oxide and possibly chromium. Chromium has a pinkish or purple Color.
You are probably right, but that's what I had seen and read in other postings and I didn't want to take any chances...

@@melplishka5978 this is true. It can be really dangerous for people who are not familiar with dealing with electricity... 👍
A cheap diamond tester will let you know if the ceramic is beryllium or aluminum.

Thanks for the DIY tip..I needed to make some parts trays and didn't want to buy magnets..
You are welcome!! 😊👍
Very interesting 👍🏻 🛠️
Thank you!
You should be able to remove the magnets in less than 30 seconds.
30 seconds??? Wow! That's a lot!! 😄😄
@@RustisGold worked on hundreds of microwave ovens. Got very good at it.
I was just joking! 😊👍
You should make a RUclips video!
