Great stuff, I really enjoyed your theory on the cutting blades and your DIY blade location on the grinder was impressive. Given the tools that you have, you're very enginuitive. Cheers from Canada.
Hello,no updates Iam still running the setup the same as seen in the videos which is water separation and then finish off with the vibrating.Thanks for your comment.
Hello,yes after it has been chopped small enough,it will go through the screen and into the water chute (sluice),the flow of the water is strong enough to wash the plastic away and leave the copper behind,
Thank you for your reply sir i just saw your other i.e the water separation video, in the water chute do you use any object to settle the copper in the slide
@@sabarish1855 Hello,the only thing that helps settle the copper is the pattern on the chequer plate which can be seen in a few of my videos.this video shows it without water or copper, th-cam.com/video/Ibx6DWyOIJI/w-d-xo.html
Hello again , Do you have time for one of my crazy questions??? #2 copper wire , like transformers and electric motors. It's #2 because of the varnish on the wire right? If I was to add powder nitric acid in a water slide like yours , would it take the varnish off ? And make it # 1 ???
Hello Rodney,yes its #2 because of the varnish but iam not sure if nitric has any effect on the varnish.One thing Iam sure of is that nitric acid will disolve copper or at least tarnish it,so you will still have#2 copper.As you have probably seen in some of my videos,the varnish comes straight off if you put it through the granulator.
it would be hard to do because the granulator screen would have to have very small holes and I think they would get clogged up easily ,maybe you could granulate the plastic first and then use a sieve to separate the powder after.But ive never tried to make powder.
My garage is full of other projects at the moment and no room for copper just yet,but Iam still here.Have you got any ideas for future videos,what do you want to see?
0k,,I thought nitric was a bit harsh lol,I dont know much about citric acid.When I first started with water separation, I used dish soap but it would oxidise the aluminium and the copper,If I remember right its made from hydrochloric acid! my advice is stay away from acid if you want bright copper.
Hello Andre,Iam really busy at the moment but I do want to make more videos when I can find the time.Have you got any suggestions of what you want to see?
Excellent, like the paper model 👌 very interesting 👍

Hi Derek,thankyou for your kind comment all the way from Canada!
Great work
Just building a water separator and was wondering if you have modified anything on yours or even shaker table.
Thanks for sharing

Brilliant...absolute perfection!!
Thankyou for your kind comment
Nice video sir.
Thankyou for your kind comment.
Good show.
Cheers Rodney,well done for being first and thankyou for your comment.
Can you help us making a machine from scratch..highly appreciate it..as I think you are a talented person to teach us
Thanks for the new video!
No Problem Mate,Thanks for your comment.
Good video can you please explain how the copper is separated from the wire automatically after crushing of the blades

will it work with slippery thin plastic? i want to make some plastic powder( not shredder)

*Where did you go?*

Yes citric acid would be like strong tomato juice.
Shit citric acid I mean sorry

Yes I do have a video showing my system in detail with all the measurements and if you need any more help, tell me how I can help.
