Hi guys welcome to my channel where I make art but out of metal. I melt metal such has aluminum, copper, brass, bronze, and some of the other metals.
I try to give it an artist look. (It's often more like creating a picture) I usual look for some of the imperfections as it gives my pieces more characteristics. That also goes for the ingots I make as well.
Once in a while I do also mix metals, but my main focus is to make stuff that looks like art while being on a budget too.
Even though I may not have a lot of stuff to work with such has tools or equipment I am still willing to try and overcome a challenge. While also sometimes showing what can go wrong and how I deal with setbacks in the process.

Melting Copper slag into beeswax molds.
Hey everyone welcome to my channel. In today's video I melt some copper slag that I have been save from other melts. I made the beeswax molds from reused beeswax. I had went to Michael's to get the silcone molds. I did the molds because I whated to see how it turned out and I have better luck with beeswax.
Why I did it out of copper Is because I like the colour and texture from the copper and I think it looks nice too.
Thank you for watching today's video everyone and I hope everyone enjoys the rest of your day and your weekend too. 🖖

Why don't you use heat-resistant gloves? Use specialized tongs to remove molten material from inside the furnace. This task is highly dangerous. Please prioritize safety.
Sadly bud because I really don't have the budget to do that. I would like to get a few more long slit spoons if that makes sence.
I also always try to be carefully too. I know that this is dangerous work.
Id love to see archeologists hypothesis on this when they dig them up

Ok nice is it your lastest video?
@@smokeyspock yes think it called dark flamer r2 melts a lot
Why couldn't you melt during a burn band? The flame is under a lot of control
Because I also live in a forest area and it was really really bad. I know some of the time if their is a fire ban I usually melt anyways. There was also a extreme so I didnt really what to take a chance. Also for my area or region you couldn't even bbq outside I belive. So thats why I wasnt doing any melting for a bit.
@@smokeyspock oh, I was just curious. I should probably be more careful to.
