This entire video was an experience from start to finish. It had humor, innovation, inspiration, frustration and tension. And now, I have a sudden urge to try a salt fork.
I think salt chopsticks might be a much better solution since you wouldn't need as much work to make them or to sharpen them since you can just dip it without worrying about the grooves.
I thought the melting idea was cool. But he said melting salt into a mold would require high temperatures. :) But hey, I'm probably hot enough to melt that salt at 800°C, so he could have let me melt the sodium chloride in my hands. Just kidding.
@@Antykoncepcja997 With enough money put into research and engineering and all that shit, I'm sure it's possible to make one. If not this, then maybe one by crystalizing salt around a steel skeleton of a fork.
Ohh righ not like people who drone on for like ages to get in a least 30min of free not so fun words on a platform run by robots but anyhow or annyhoo it was quit the intersetsting item
I like how he doesn’t joke much at all through out it, he just lets everything be in it’s silly nature, nobody thinks about a salt fork, either you think of a salty fork or serving salt with a fork. Love it.
When I clicked on this video, TH-cam showed be the wrong footage and showed me a video by a different person about 2nd perspective and it was lowkey good, I watched through it all. The whole time I was confused on why everyone was talking about him actually make a salt fork, when I just thought the title and thumbnail was clickbait and all the comments were satire-
I can see the salt fork being a product on the shelves, with the handle not being made of salt but reusable. So when your salt fork disintegrates, you can just replace the top.
This would be amazing for people with POTS. I have to carry around salt packets currently, but if I could just eat something with a salt fork that would be way cooler.
its so funny, this guy is an actual youtube genius. Like he knows exactly what it takes to make a viral video and you can tell from the compositing, story telling, etc. Like this guy is no novice. Yet he just left us. Its impressive
As a stone cutter, I can tell you the issue is that the salt is made of many micro crystals. If you could grow a single salt crystal in some water and get it big enough to be a fork, and use water based cutting tools, you'll shape a new fork easily. Check your area for a local rock and gem or lapidary club.
@@oranjesus49 absolutely. If it's a single large crystal it will be much harder. Of course, it'll dissolve every time you introduce it to water. Search for videos of growing a crystal at home. The principal is the same with salt.
You're right. It's opaque so you can tell it's a bunch of small crystals. If it was one big crystal it'd look smooth and transparent, as long as the outside isn't roughed up
@@oranjesus49 There's a catch here, if you increase the endurance, it means it will provide less salt to the food you are using it for. By making it more durable, you are making it less effective for the purpose you are making it in the first place. Kinda hard to have a balance here, probably the best way would be having a "sharpable" fork, like a pencil, where while it will dissolve, it will also be possible to keep it's format. But also for making it "sharpable" it would have to be at least the same thickness all along. In the end we will have something like a salt skewer.
i'm not gonna lie i genuinely thought this guy would have more content given how well the idea was thought out and presented and for this to be the only videos on the channel is nuts i wish you the best of luck if you choose to pursue content creation further
....how well it was thought out...no. Within 5 seconds of looking at this stupid premise I concluded it would be utterly stupid to think you would get anything close to "perfect" amount of salt with a salt fork because of this thing called, chewing. If you want to run your tongue along a fork shaped salt lick (which is basically what it is) than you have a momentary taste of salt, which goes away. So if you have a chunk of steak, the only sensation of salt (which would be minimal by the way cause it wouldnt be incorporated into the actual food itself) would come from your tongue during a momentary lick, and then it would be immediately gone, unless you think the amount of salt coming off would be enough to season food as you chew it. Not only are salt forks brittle and prone to break simply by shattering (its a crystal) how do you wash it? so if im eating something with a lot of sauce and I now have saucy salt fork, im just going to wash that in WATER? you wanna reinvent the wheel for how to get SALT in your mouth. Pointless. if this was a product on shark tank, i'd be out within 5 seconds, I guess that's why you guys are all stupid and poor.

So let me get this straight, this man, comes out of nowhere and makes an absolutely FIRE video about making forks out of salt. Only to disappear Truly the TH-camr experience
We don’t know how long the salt fork really took . Also he might still be making a new video . Or he might not . Likely this was just a fun little venture .
This video has tempted me for months. I kept telling myself that i'd watch salt fork later. Later has finally arrived. I took the dive and I'm more than impressed.
I honestly belive that no one has ever had the question “what if forks were wade of salt?” This video is so outta pocket i love it. You answer all the questions we never had.
My guy just *appears* out of nowhere with this absolute revolution of a video. I used 8 and a half minutes of my life watching a guy make and eat with a salt fork, and I regret absolutely nothing. Edit: Damn you guys, thanks for the 1.3k likes! :D
My guy just *appears* out of nowhere with this absolute revolution of a video. I used 8 and a half minutes of my life watching a guy make and eat with a salt fork, and I regret absolutely nothing.
The craziest part is that this is the type of content you make when you have like 5 million subs not your first video lol. The editing is truly a masterpiece on its own.
The storytelling is crafted to perfection. If only this guy had started doing youtube earlier, then I could have a commercial mass-produced salt fork right now
I am so happy to be able to watch this absolute masterpiece for free. I am a better person after learning the important life lessons Ben has taught us all today.
This man joined youtube, made a masterpiece of a video, (probaby for some kind of film class or something) and then left, never to be seen again. 10/10 amazing video.
@Shockkings0714 my guy, taking that much salt at once isn't gonna straight up kill you, yea its not good. But it's fine if it's what happened in the video, and just a one time thing. Like bruh mates it's not that deep
The problem with cutting big crystals of sodium chloride is that its structure always forms at right angles. So it cleaves tremendously easy. I’m impressed you managed to get as far as you did with each attempt! You’d make an excellent stone cutter.
@@spaceecks1793 I gotta be missing some joke here right? Cuz there’s no way you’re actually that dense but I also don’t really get the joke besides you pretending to be aggressively wrong. Maybe it’s just not my style of joke even tho being aggressively wrong does sound kinda funny on paper 🤷♂️
As a professional chef, I have never laughed so hard in my life as watching this. This is like food service shower thoughts. Super good, super funny, super entertaining... you earned a Subscriber!
for this to be his only video, I am amazed on how well he delivered this to us. now im going to go make a salt fork my self, and a spoon for soup. Thank you Ben
are you a film major? cuz the quality of this video is so good, and love your humor. Also, I feel like this is the most calm and relaxing experimental youtube video I've ever seen lol
the quality of the video is good but i don't see how you came to that conclusion that he might be a film major it's not that good compared to Gawx Art's cinematography.
I think you could have gotten a superior (although admittedly less youtubable) solution if you prepared a saturated salt solution and then simply dipped an existing fork into it repeatedly to give it a thick and hard salt layer, kind of like candle dipping.
@@erictheepic5019 I was also considering that, but I believe the result would have next to no structural integrity (because when the water evaporates, it will leave little pockets of air between the salt crystals)
This video was, dare I say, fantastic? The production quality, the innovation, the way that you asked a question no one has ever asked before and then took us on the journey to make it real from start to finish! And all from this channels very first video! You truly made a wonderful video
A fork is a pretty good idea, but I think it would be worth trying just a single skewer. It's far less fun than a fork but I think it would be easier to make and just as useful in most applications
If you’re looking to make the salt fork 2.0, perhaps consider making a super saturated solution of salt and CAD modeling a fork with thinned out prongs and scooper but an adequate handle. Then, after the super saturated solution of salt water is made, dip the scooper and prongs into the salt water and wait for it to be fully covered in salt crystals. That way, you just need to remake the salt water solution(waste less salt) and your work is reusable.
i believe this guy created such the perfect utensil that going back to normal utensils after salt fork caused such a depressive state that he could only made one good video and no more.
You should make a handle out of normal fork material (plastic, metal, wood maybe?) with an apparatus to attach salt fork heads to. Think a toothbrush with swapable heads. That way you can make salt forks without wasting so much salt on the handle, and you can swap them out when they become worn.
@@alecm2774probably because while eating your mouth likely comes a bit in contact with the head of the fork too, and not just the prongs, and that likely gives some extra salty flavor to it
This video was a absolute masterpiece. Thank you for the journey, and the determination you showed along the way. I hope we all can find our own salt forks, whether they last for a week, or for merely moments, the memories we made with it were what truly mattered.
Im so confused. I thought this channel had other videos. I never asked for a video on a salt fork but I'm heavily invested in your content. Please make more.
For salt fork 2.0 you could make a super saturated solution of salt and water, fill up a food safe silicone mold of a fork and then place the solution in a dehydrator (you can also just leave it out in a warm clean dry spot to let the water evaporate it'll just take longer) idk about the structural integrity you'd probably have to tinker around with the solution, dehydration methods, and molds to get the crystals big and strong enough but you have enough salt dust from this experiment to play around with 🤣 also maybe try a netty pot and a steam if you're still having salty coughs
This video brought back so many memories from my childhood! I used to love watching science experiments on TV. I was always so fascinated by the different ways that scientists could manipulate materials. This video was a great reminder of that sense of wonder. I loved seeing Ben Walker's creative approach to the challenge of creating a fork out of salt. He was really thoughtful about the different factors that would need to be considered. I also appreciated his humor and his willingness to share his failures as well as his successes. This was a really fun and informative video. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in science or just a good laugh.😊
Here’s an idea that could allow you to stretch the life of the salt fork: make a handle that isn’t salt but can connect to replaceable salt prongs that you could sort of mass produce. Less work, less chance of failure, and longer lasting.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate this guy's commitment. Everything he will ever own will rust away just for this 8 minute and 24 seconds worth of entertainment.

So let me get this straight, this man, comes out of nowhere and makes an absolutely FIRE video about making forks out of salt. Only to disappear
Truly the TH-camr experience
We don’t know how long the salt fork really took . Also he might still be making a new video . Or he might not . Likely this was just a fun little venture .

The problem with cutting big crystals of sodium chloride is that its structure always forms at right angles. So it cleaves tremendously easy. I’m impressed you managed to get as far as you did with each attempt! You’d make an excellent stone cutter.

I think you could have gotten a superior (although admittedly less youtubable) solution if you prepared a saturated salt solution and then simply dipped an existing fork into it repeatedly to give it a thick and hard salt layer, kind of like candle dipping.
I was thinking similarly, but with a fork-shaped mold.
@@erictheepic5019 I was also considering that, but I believe the result would have next to no structural integrity (because when the water evaporates, it will leave little pockets of air between the salt crystals)
That would be pretty cool too, now I wanna see someone do that.
@@rubyherringisn't that essentially how nature made the giant salt block in the first place

This video was, dare I say, fantastic? The production quality, the innovation, the way that you asked a question no one has ever asked before and then took us on the journey to make it real from start to finish! And all from this channels very first video! You truly made a wonderful video
Glad you liked my video, it took a very long time to edit.
It was absolute
@@Official_RobuxAre you truly the one who made the video?
there's something poetic about a utensil that you not only use, but that gets used too. A fork that offers its very existence to enhance your meal
A fork is a pretty good idea, but I think it would be worth trying just a single skewer. It's far less fun than a fork but I think it would be easier to make and just as useful in most applications
Or the two prong thingy. Almost as easy and almost a fork.
@@ydderynnada two-tined fork?
Omg wait hear me out: a kebab with a salt skewer
chopsticks??
Next up the pepper spoon
If you’re looking to make the salt fork 2.0, perhaps consider making a super saturated solution of salt and CAD modeling a fork with thinned out prongs and scooper but an adequate handle. Then, after the super saturated solution of salt water is made, dip the scooper and prongs into the salt water and wait for it to be fully covered in salt crystals. That way, you just need to remake the salt water solution(waste less salt) and your work is reusable.
Now imagine frozen watermelon but in utensil form
Perhaps
Exactly my thought.
That would corrode the machine
@@firstvideos9774 Using those would be one of the experiences of all time
You def need to make more content like this, it was so interesting seeing a man come up with a simple idea and after trial and error, finally succeeds
there’s a channel called “i did a thing” who make’s content exactly like this. you’d probably like
@@alexandrasalgado7729 that’s funny I was just thinking about that
i believe this guy created such the perfect utensil that going back to normal utensils after salt fork caused such a depressive state that he could only made one good video and no more.
You should make a handle out of normal fork material (plastic, metal, wood maybe?) with an apparatus to attach salt fork heads to. Think a toothbrush with swapable heads. That way you can make salt forks without wasting so much salt on the handle, and you can swap them out when they become worn.
Lmao i was just thinking the same thing
Better idea, salt toothbrush
Is it a salt fork at that point or a hybrid abomination???
Why not make only the prongs replaceable, less salt used, and the leftover pieces can easily be used in a grinder
@@alecm2774probably because while eating your mouth likely comes a bit in contact with the head of the fork too, and not just the prongs, and that likely gives some extra salty flavor to it
the quality of this video is insane for a channel with 117 subscribers. keep it up man! you're underrated, can't wait when you're going to go big

How was this only 8 minutes
@@silverduk fr it felt like an hour
Im so confused. I thought this channel had other videos. I never asked for a video on a salt fork but I'm heavily invested in your content. Please make more.
"a quora post about laser cutting salt" is such an insane sentence alone
For salt fork 2.0 you could make a super saturated solution of salt and water, fill up a food safe silicone mold of a fork and then place the solution in a dehydrator (you can also just leave it out in a warm clean dry spot to let the water evaporate it'll just take longer) idk about the structural integrity you'd probably have to tinker around with the solution, dehydration methods, and molds to get the crystals big and strong enough but you have enough salt dust from this experiment to play around with 🤣 also maybe try a netty pot and a steam if you're still having salty coughs
Yeah, this is essentially the suggestion I would have.
One giant fork shaped salt crystal
was about to comment that, you could also just grow a thin layer of salt onto a metal fork
@@podwodnobrody yeah, but then it wouldn't be a salt fork. it'd be a metal fork covered in salt. the people would know.
does salt shrink in a mold?
He went salt fork. He never went back.

This video brought back so many memories from my childhood! I used to love watching science experiments on TV. I was always so fascinated by the different ways that scientists could manipulate materials. This video was a great reminder of that sense of wonder. I loved seeing Ben Walker's creative approach to the challenge of creating a fork out of salt. He was really thoughtful about the different factors that would need to be considered. I also appreciated his humor and his willingness to share his failures as well as his successes. This was a really fun and informative video. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in science or just a good laugh.😊

Here’s an idea that could allow you to stretch the life of the salt fork: make a handle that isn’t salt but can connect to replaceable salt prongs that you could sort of mass produce. Less work, less chance of failure, and longer lasting.
He could also just coat the end of a regular fork in a layer of salt that could be replaced.
Dipping a cold fork in molten salt. Wait at what temp does salt melt?
@@SturgGaemingit was 800 Fahrenheit i think
Can we just take a moment to appreciate this guy's commitment. Everything he will ever own will rust away just for this 8 minute and 24 seconds worth of entertainment.
Everyone is sucking the same salt fork if he didn't make more than one. I highly doubt rinsing under water cleans that fork properly
