Thanks for posting these. I'm referring to all of your videos in the machine shop and foundry. There is so much valuable information provided in them and it's all very helpful for anyone who works in or is interested in these subjects. You could easily sell this info but you give it freely. So thanks.
Fun fact: Copper wire is not just stranded to make it flexible. It is stranded to give it better electrical properties. Electricity doesn't flow through a wire as most people believe. It flows over the surface area of the wire. More strands = more surface area. You probably know this, but some might not. Thanks for the video.
Mr Pete, I look forward eagerly to each of your informative videos. I really appreciate the effort you make Out of interest, I was always under the impressionj that stainless wasn't magnetic because of the nickel content. I guess it must be the chrome then. Any comments from anybody??
The Atlas/Closine is a trooper,My farther in laws got his in 1975 and I got the same one NIB in 1983 and have threaded dozens of barrels,The same one you have, a 12x36 .Good old Sears. Tons of parts on Ebay.
That is a huge block of copper! If you have a neodymium magnet, try dropping it on it. The magnetic Lorenz force created by the copper cushions the fall of the magnet, it's very cool.
Great information. I look forward to each new video post. Incidentally, "triple chrome plating" refers to a 3 step process starting with copper, then nickel, then chromium.
In my experience most stainless is magnetic, some isn't. All stainless used in cutlery is magnetic (and I believe all other kitchen things too) which is convenient because it means magnetic knife racks work!
I'm enjoying my time spent watching your videos. Point of being a USA person, we don't mint a penny; we mint and use a cent. Those redcoated rascals with whom we fought for freedom, the British, use pennies. We freemen use cents.
Whenever you alloy a metal, it changes it's properties. A lot of stainless is magnetic. Most if not all hardenable stainless like knives is magnetic. Non-hardenable stainless like your stainless appliances isn't. An interesting fact is US nickels are about 75% copper. I've machined nickel-copper alloys that were over 80% copper and they were still silver colored.
Acquaintance of mine found a 50 pound piece of float copper while fishing one of the rivers up here in the UP. I keep my eye out but haven't found anything (well as a kid we've found some embedded in rock while metal detecting, also found silver). Heard a story of a wall with a bunch of loggers names (from way back when) scratched in along one of the rivers up here, but I'm not exactly sure where and the only way to find it would be to walk the whole stretch of river, which I may do one day, who knows.
there are 3 types of stainless steels: Ferritic -basic stainless steel, generally just iron and 14-18% Cr, Martensitic -12% or so Cr with newer alloys having molybdenum and such. this is used for cutlery. also martensitic steels must be fully hardened to be actually corrosion resistant. Austenitic-non magnetic due to crystal structure; high nickel content; Nickel is expensive so some austenitic steels substitute Mn to use less nickel. By definition all stainless steels are >12% Cr
That 52100 is what bearings are made out of. Tough stuff. something about saliva turns it black. My onscreen keyboard messing up again. no auto capitalization again.
What's the matter with you!!! YOUR coming on here saying how common THESE metals are !!! YOUR even Talking about how they comprise large fractions of the earths crust !!! DON'T YOU KNOW THAT THERE'S A COIN SHORTAGE!!! MY GOD MAN, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN !! AND , yes, even as they have taken all the actual precious metals out of our coins and shrunk and sandwiched them down to as thin as possible , IT CAN ONLY THEN MEAN THAT THERE'S A METAL SHORTAGE!!! JESUS TUBAL , HAVE YOU GONE MAD THAT YOU CAN'T SEE THAT!!!,,, and Yes, some crazy conspiracy nuts say that it's a ploy to get everyone off of currency and on treacable plastic and yes it would seem That the auto teller machines that keep breaking down and only accepting plastic AND NO Cash would be about the same thing but our givernt wouldn't lie to us about ANYTHING would They!!? Because you KNOW , if they did then they just might be lieing about everything because what lier only lies ONCE or what crook ONLY steals once... Anyway , you better check your Wikipedia facts because you're Way over the line talking about how there's no shortage of metal..

Thanks to those who replied. I hope Mr Pete doesn't mind this discussion going on.

THANKS A TON, MR. PETE!!! :) You're the best..!

Some stainless steels are magnetic, and some stainless steels are only magnetic in certain states (work hardened).
very interesting thanks for sharing your knowledge.
i guess I am pretty randomly asking but do anybody know a good place to watch newly released series online ?
Love your videos!

Pennies were officially discontinued by the Royal Canadian Mint on May 4, 2012 and will start to be withdrawn from circulation on May 4, 2013.
nice i like the setup in this video series

We have the same Starrett No. 216 Micrometers, hahaha. Great tool, I love it
I prefer Nickel Plating on over Chrome on tools Somewhere I have a Cobalt blue Bromo-Seltzer bottle

Canadian pennies are copper plated steel. Still cost more than a cent to make.
EPA: A solution looking for a problem...
I prefer Yorkshire Fittings, to those straight fittings.
Chromate primer is still used in aviation.
Chrome in China 300 B.C. wow..
how do you idenrify nikel
WHAR PRODUCT do you need to identify whit red resukt
Shiny chrome plated products use nickel plating first as a substrate before chrome plating. Shiny........
"Make sure you use copper nails"...
Pure copper nails would be too soft. Brass nails or bronze nails will do.
