Your awesome thanks buddy, I’ve had a bad few days been so busy and everything that could go wrong did go wrong including the uploads of this video and other bits and pieces but everything will fall in place it always eventually does. Thanks again for your continued support buddy I really appreciate it👊🏻😁
Hey, thanks for your contribution to D. He's awesome cause he don't shill! If you've got a lot of stuff too look at the video! I've learned so much from him already! Can't wait to get that furnace and Some nice graphite molds made; and those sweet ingot stamps from D's friend (major hook-up!)!
1-Copper, Nordic Gold. 2-Yes, to unboxing the fan mail. 3-I enjoy watching all 3 types. Coins are fun. It’s interesting to see how much detail you can achieve with each type of metal. And Sand-casting is always suspenseful. I really like your 3D print designs. Wouldn’t mind seeing a little more of you designing and making them. It’s been awhile.
I LOVE the recent bird content we're getting! The crow was always in the background of the old videos, but it's nice to see him and the Magpie getting some screentime now!
Love seeing you in the new space. Treasure room looks great. For me, it's ingots and coins over sandcasting. And I'd enjoy seeing you unbox your fanmail. Cheers!
I'm torn... I love watching copper freeze, but there's a satisfaction in watching the aluminum get skimmed. Enjoyed and I love the new place. Hope all is well.
Could be pretty neat to see the fan mail being opened! Can't wait to see your kiln working, that's a whole different angle. And as always seeing the Boy's out and about is always great to see, I understand your worries for them, you guys have somethings the rest of the world has no experience with! Thanks for the video.
I know nothing about metallurgy but this is how I feel about each metal after watching your channel for close to a year now: Copper- Class melt, the red is a really nice color, it often comes out of recoveries quite and is and the process of taking it out of wires seems satisfying Aluminum- silver is a nice color, and it seems quite easy to melt, the slag at the end always seems to have a lot of extra aluminum so I like the fact that you take care to not waste anything. Brass- definitely least favorite, I can understand why someone might like gold but it often looks like sulfur when smelted and seems like the dirtiest of the metals to melt. Still great though
I like watching copper melts. I like coin and ingot casting but an occasional sand casting is fun to watch. Loving the videos. Greetings from Oregon, USA.
You could easily do hour or two long videos and I would still watch them. I like the pacing and how you jump from different thing to another, animals especially are my favorite and complex melts are the best, thank you for making awesome content.
The copper bar was really nice imho. 👍 Yes! Open fan mail, it’s always interesting to see if there’s something just for you and us or if the doggos ever get mail too.
Likes and observations: I like the blend of casting and sand moulds in one vid. However, not opposed to a full sand mould vid, esp if it’s something functional you’ll use in the shop. I like the smaller to medium coins and objects. Your benches look wobbly. I suggest some diagonal bracing for the legs for rigidity and maybe anchor the back to the wall. Just a suggestion. I’d like to see a kiln relining and then casting vid. I know you have a big kiln coming, but I’d still watch it. Fan Mail. Yes. Maybe not everything, but def the good stuff. Maybe hi light some viewers creations. Also, maybe an open and melt, or an open and use vid. I know it’d make the vids longer but I’d still watch for sure. Sand casting for objects you’ll use in the shop. Knobs, handles, small hammer or small tools or specialized objects for your needs. Thanks for all your great content. Been a fan for years.
A couple things: - My favorite metal to melt is aluminium just because the slag looks like foam and it's fun to watch. - The copper bar's half rough looks freaking awesome. - Yes you should do fan mail opening videos, it'd be cool to see what people send you. Also you can thank them on a video. Thanks again for the friday entertainment D!
My favorite metal to see melted? 🤔 I love watching the little frost-feathers form on the surface of copper as it freezes solid, but I love the clean, mirror-like pours of molten aluminum, too~🥰
I like the way copper melts more than anything. Would definitely like to see your fan mail! Also, one of the knife making channels, not sure if I can say which one, had some angle grinder cut off wheels sent to him from a company called Graf. A diamond edge metal cutter and a wood blade. The metal cutter performed well on steel but I'd be interested to see what a diamond blade would do to Aluminum or Copper....
I like your birds. And Ingot and Bullion are just awesome. I also like the birds in the videos from Kurtis and Karen at Cutting Edge Engineering in Queensland, and I like his Staffy pal Homeless Bignutz. After watching you folks, I have visiting Australia on my bucket list. Thanks for all your hard work making these videos.
I’m surprised you didn’t build a separate room in the shed with ventilation to do your smelting when it’s raining. Loving the new place. Can’t wait for the boys to move in. Thanks D 🍻👍 You should do a video of fan Mail and I like the Nordic gold. I like both castings
I like the ingots and coins and the sand casting. It's both interesting to me :) I've only discovered your chanel rather recently, but have watched quite a few of your videos already. To me they are entertaining (I like your humour) and interesting. I also like how you include your doggies and the birds and how your new shack grows 👍
I don't know why, but that round piece just rolling away at the 5:22 mark legitimately made me laugh out loud! 😂 Another wonderful video as always, and I'm thrilled about your new space - I can't wait to watch you evolve and grow into it! You're so close to your weight goal - you'll have to do something huge once you reach 1 ton! Sending love from the US!
Great bars bud! Love the "COPPER" bar too! That's a creepy tree for sure! Gotta protect the boys! Don't want them to get carried off by that crow! Thanx for a great vid D!😁
Love watching you tear stuff apart to melt. I like watching all metals melt, so it is hard to really choose just one. They all have their allures, but I guess I would have to say copper and it’s alloys. Any pour is good, ingot, coin, sand cast, shot. Awesome video. Cheers 🍻
When he said melt a motor I was thinking “Oh he’ll probably just pull the winding out of the stator and melt that.” Nah, man’s straight up melted the whole damn thing lol
A mix of all your castings is great. I love the Boys and wait in anticipation to see the stack grow, as well as your sock designs. Keep up the good work. Ken from Secunda, South Africa.
Really enjoy watching your melts. Very satisfying! Can't say I prefer one metal over another, nor whether I prefer sand casting over ingots and coins. They're all fun to watch! You should definitely do a fan mail video! Thanks for sharing the great content and your boys! Cheers!!
I love that pie iron. When I was a kid, we called them 'pudgy pies'. They would usually be filled with pie filling or peanut butter and jelly and baked in a camp fire. Usually in Wisconsin. We still have them in the pantry, but don't get chances to use them. Your shop looks wonderful!
My favorite metal to watch melt has to be aluminum. I love how you get a 2/3 full crucible and then just start pushing pieces into it and they melt pretty much right away. So satisfying to watch.
I love nordic gold melt's due to their shine and I do hope the move in for the boys is smooth. They will love the yard to play around in. Plus you should also add in the fan mail in a future video, maybe put it with the redoing the furnace interior.
It was like a giant aluminum slag soufflé! Let's see... I do love the aluminum melts. So pretty and shiny! Even the slag is interesting. Then again, the nordic gold is beautiful. I love how putting all those metals together results in gold! Also, the copper melts are so awesome... green flames, the liquid metal color is gorgeous, the way you blowtorch the metal and it takes on this rainbow sheen... Oh, right... the question was "What's your favorite metal melt?"... um... you want me to choose just one??? And yes, open your fan mail. Why not? It'd be kind of cool! "Do you prefer sand casting or ingots and coins?" -- Yes. 😛
I'd be interested to see fan mail opening videos, just so long as they don't replace the usual Friday melt videos. Lol and I personally prefer ingots and coins over sand casting. :)
Yay! I was missing my Friday melt to start the day. Then the video started acting up, saying it was private. I panicked! The fully it's working now. I don't know what I would've done without my dose of Friday melt. I would've had a meltdown. Thanks for continually bringing us the best content on TH-cam. Please stay safe and have a great weekend, my friend. Edit: My favorite melt metal has to be copper. Nothing beats that deep orange color. It looks angry for some reason.
The new melt shack is awesome everything has it place, trophy room is spectacular and yes open up the fan mail on video. Looking forward to next weeks video.
Favorite metal is Aluminum to metal. It would be a very funny day if a "friend" left their broken plane around the shed. All that Aluminum and Copper would be a months worth of metaling down. hehehe
I like watching Nordic Gold because it’s something you don’t see a lot. And I like aluminum because of its shiny-ness. 😀 I prefer sand casting. And Yes to fan mail…new things to melt! The pie irons take me back to my camping days as a kid.
I would have to say Nordic gold. 🇸🇪😇 But the common aluminium looks so fun to play with. 👏👏👏 Then again, I really enjoy seeing you melt the more precious and rare metals so I’ll go with that. 😃
It's eerie how similar the sounds are there to here in the backwoods of Texas. I heard the frogs and I was like 'that's weird, they don't usually make noise this time of day' and then I realized they were your frogs and not mine. Congrats on the new spread and I hope you love it there!
I've been working in a foundry for the last year now, your wooden boxes for sand casting are smaller versions of the steel frames we use for our sand casting 😎🤙 I love Fridays! Always means I have no trouble sleeping when I get home from work and then I rewatch after I get up to see what I missed hahaha
I think Aluminum is my favorite to watch pour, but brass and bronze are probably my favorite to watch melt. I also really like the metal mixing you did for Nordic gold.
I was literally watching some of your previous motor melting videos yesterday, it's like you were watching me, but i ain't complaining, it's nice to watch what you got~ Im in the boat of preferring ingots and coins, simply because I like being able to actually see the molds fill up as you pour, it's very satisfying to watch. But at the same time, an occasional sand cast gets no complaints from me, as I get to see something different and unique when they happen
By far copper melts are my favorite. I like a mixture of end product, coin, sand castings, or ingots, you have a good mix. I especially like the motor melts. Nice place you have there!
West coast American here who has always had sleep issues for years. I love your videos. BTW, love the socks! Cowabunga! I like all metal melts but I truly love copper since it's my other first favorite besides silver. In regards to what I prefer in what the metal becomes, I like them all and I just can't pick a favorite, don't think I could. It would be nice to see you open fan mail in video. Much love and respect.
It's great that you can now go outside and do the sledge hammer and grinder work without disturbing the neighbors or needing the vacuum hood. I laughed as the piece of motor casing took off rolling down the hill "He's making a break for it!".
My favorite metal to watch melt is copper. I feel it looks the best when pouring. I also like watching bullion and I got melt when you give them ear scratchys! Also fan mail sounds awesome!!
Loved todays episode.. Since you have a wood burner (stove/fireplace) you could pre-melt stuff.. Like put the copper in it to burn off the paint & resin.. It would work for other metals too.. I used to do lots of scrapping and always melted my metals to ingots, (Pays more money) I had a huge wood burner in my garage.. It actually was a small Incinerator, yet they are large compared to a normal wood burner.. Worked great for me for 20+ years.. Never had large amounts of slag, pre-burning them..
I like watching you melt any metals but new or rare metals that you don't usually melt are always exciting to watch, plus taking apart old motors and separating the metal is always good to watch too. Actually everything you do is great to watch.
In terms of favorite type of metal being seen melted, probably copper. Its very satisfying seeing it go from whatever wiring it was used in, to being molded into bright shiny brown ingots. Doesn't seem too terrible to work with, either. For least favorite, definitely aluminum. Seems like a pain in the ass to work with, and there always seems to be loads of slag during the whole process, so messy on top of that, too... For the question about the fan mail opening, I think it could be fun for sure to see what all comes in! Maybe designate it to Saturday or Sunday if you end up deciding on making videos on it. I know I would tune in, for sure
Great video! I really love your new place. You are going to grow into it well. For Sand, casting you really need to obsess over your molds. Parting lines, sprue, cope and drag etc. just like Windy Hill foundry does.
Being an American with sleep issues is a godsend for a channel like yours who uploads this late.
Unless you’re just getting of work 👌
@@IXGRAVEMINDXI Jokes on you, I'm At work xD
For me its already 10am 😂
Nothing like that 5am bickstackd notification
Living in Caucasian and getting the video at the noon😂
Another excellent melt! The new place is shaping up very nicely. I like the Nordic Gold melts best. 👍🏻
Your awesome thanks buddy, I’ve had a bad few days been so busy and everything that could go wrong did go wrong including the uploads of this video and other bits and pieces but everything will fall in place it always eventually does. Thanks again for your continued support buddy I really appreciate it👊🏻😁
@@bigstackD hope you're doing better, buddy!
Ditto on the Nordic gold!
Hey can you put a solar panel plant and use that electricity to run electric furnace and melt metal eco-friendly way?
Hey, thanks for your contribution to D.
He's awesome cause he don't shill!
If you've got a lot of stuff too look at the video!
I've learned so much from him already!
Can't wait to get that furnace and Some nice graphite molds made; and those sweet ingot stamps from D's friend (major hook-up!)!

Love seeing you in the new space. Treasure room looks great. For me, it's ingots and coins over sandcasting. And I'd enjoy seeing you unbox your fanmail. Cheers!
I don't really have a preference on anything as long as you keep up the quality like always I will watch till the end every time
A fan mail unboxing would be great! And definitely about time to get that kiln going!
I'm torn... I love watching copper freeze, but there's a satisfaction in watching the aluminum get skimmed. Enjoyed and I love the new place. Hope all is well.

For personal pieces I make, I prefer copper or Silver. But for your melts, Nordic Gold is always a unique viewing pleasure!
I love when the crucible is empty and you flip the drip back onto the edge of the crucible. I'm always like, "do the flip!”
The copper bar was really nice imho. 👍
Yes! Open fan mail, it’s always interesting to see if there’s something just for you and us or if the doggos ever get mail too.

Great vid! I love the results of your Nordic Gold melts. Shiney! But I think I like the low melt point metals (Zinc, Tin). Makes for a quick project!

- The copper bar's half rough looks freaking awesome.

I think my favorite metal that you work with is copper. I love the way it freezes, how it melts, and the eerie green flames it gives off sometimes.
Aww yeah a Motor Melt! Those are always fun to watch. The Slag bubble looked really cool. And copper has to be my favorite melt metal.
Copper has to be my favorite, just the shine off of it in the crucible is mesmerizing
[5:21] The part where the metal wheel rolled away after you hit it was hilarious xD
It was trying to escape
I don't know why, but that round piece just rolling away at the 5:22 mark legitimately made me laugh out loud! 😂 Another wonderful video as always, and I'm thrilled about your new space - I can't wait to watch you evolve and grow into it!

That's a creepy tree for sure!
Gotta protect the boys!
Don't want them to get carried off by that crow!
Thanx for a great vid D!😁
I love your reaction to the copper melts and the bulk of aluminum melts, nordic gold's complexity. Fan mail would be fun to see

Your content is content I didn't even know how much I needed in my life. So satisfying to watch you do your thing every week! Love the new place!
I like the copper and Nordic gold melts the best. Also like both ingots and coins
Copper twizzlers and any dust/ slag melt is always top notch. Started off a Nordic gold guy, but copper is where it’s really at
Melts like these are my favorite. I like watching you take the stuff apart as much as I like watching you melt it. greetings from the US 😁🤘🏼
I love that pie iron. When I was a kid, we called them 'pudgy pies'. They would usually be filled with pie filling or peanut butter and jelly and baked in a camp fire. Usually in Wisconsin. We still have them in the pantry, but don't get chances to use them. Your shop looks wonderful!
What is “pie filling”
@@boarbot7829 Premade fruit filling for making fruit pies. For example, cherry or apple.
@@shawnwright4129 ah ok.
I like the variations of melts that you do. Don't change anything!
My favorite metal to watch melt has to be aluminum. I love how you get a 2/3 full crucible and then just start pushing pieces into it and they melt pretty much right away. So satisfying to watch.
I like that the copper turns the shades of blue and purple when you hit it with a torch. Such beautiful colors.
YES! Yes to fan mail videos 🥰 or at least let them be a portion of the vid if they're not interesting enough for their own episode 😉
I love nordic gold melt's due to their shine and I do hope the move in for the boys is smooth. They will love the yard to play around in. Plus you should also add in the fan mail in a future video, maybe put it with the redoing the furnace interior.
i think a fan mail and mini melt episode would be a cool change up.. as always another great video.
It was like a giant aluminum slag soufflé!

yup and yup. I agree
Don't Eat the Forbidden Marshmallow!!!
The aluminum slag looked kinda like metallic marshmallow lol
We like it all and yes to the fan mail.
We LOVE seeing the boys. ❤️
Love to see you melting copper that’s my favorite. Have you or would you consider doing any lost wax casting? That is truly amazing to see! Cheers
He has done lost wax before 👍
Yay! I was missing my Friday melt to start the day. Then the video started acting up, saying it was private. I panicked! The fully it's working now.

Edit: My favorite melt metal has to be copper. Nothing beats that deep orange color. It looks angry for some reason.
muito legal ver esse trabalho em meio a natureza.... perfeito!!!!
The new melt shack is awesome everything has it place, trophy room is spectacular and yes open up the fan mail on video. Looking forward to next weeks video.
Really enjoy your camera work with the molten copper. I’d love to see you melt sterling silver or take another trip to the Perth Mint for a purchase.
Treasure room looks awesome, never gets old seeing it. To answer your question, I like to see copper being melted.
I like watching the copper cool down in the ice block and reveal its color. And when the aluminum freezes back into a solid in the molds.
Favorite metal is Aluminum to metal. It would be a very funny day if a "friend" left their broken plane around the shed. All that Aluminum and Copper would be a months worth of metaling down. hehehe
I like the deconstruction of the various things. Great way to get a heads up when I give it ago. Always learning, keep up the great work.
Man, you’re so fortunate to have such a beautiful shop.

When this video came out yesterday 11/3 I was beyond stoked. Then you made me wait. Lol. Always worth it BigstackD!
Excellent. Your new place even provides dramatic attempts at escaping by the metal pieces. 🤣🤣🤣 Well done 👍👍👍. Thank you for sharing. Be safe 🇨🇦
I would have to say Nordic gold. 🇸🇪😇
But the common aluminium looks so fun to play with. 👏👏👏
Then again, I really enjoy seeing you melt the more precious and rare metals so I’ll go with that. 😃

Its kinda why i fell in love to begin with. Besides the awesome melts. It really sounds and looks like home!
crickets mate ;)
nice job of it the copper bar turned out great. thank you for sharing 😊
Great video, love the new digs!! Definitely Nordic gold. Yes seeing the fan mail would be a great bonus. 🍻
I was halfway through when you re-uploaded this. Watching again.
Doggies in the treasure room!
I prefer the smaller coins, too. They look like they feel nicer in the hand.

Always means I have no trouble sleeping when I get home from work and then I rewatch after I get up to see what I missed hahaha
We also need to keep thousands of pounds of weights on our casting frames so the gas build-up doesn't make the frames blow apart hahaha
I think Aluminum is my favorite to watch pour, but brass and bronze are probably my favorite to watch melt. I also really like the metal mixing you did for Nordic gold.

I like polished ingots of any metal, and the boys are wee beauties. Rock on Bigstack D
I really like watching you do copper tbh. It has such a nice colour.
Loved todays episode.. Since you have a wood burner (stove/fireplace) you could pre-melt stuff.. Like put the copper in it to burn off the paint & resin.. It would work for other metals too..

The new place is cool, I like the motor melts because you get a copper and aluminum melts in one. 🤘🏾🖤👍🏾🖤
BOoyah 😀 Ive been watching you for around 2 years now :-D Love your weekly updates 😀
Enjoying your sand casting as you’ve improved your technique over time
Always look forward to a new video. Thanks for your great work.
Aluminium is my favourite metal to watch melt. Then copper! This video was a treat.
Greetings from Scotland!
Love that copper bar. Looks very cool. I prefer sand casting, but I guess it's a lot more work. Unboxing mixed in would be nice.
I like watching you melt any metals but new or rare metals that you don't usually melt are always exciting to watch, plus taking apart old motors and separating the metal is always good to watch too. Actually everything you do is great to watch.
The boys look like they really enjoy the new location.
Thanks again, for a relaxing start to my Friday... Aluminium... Copper... 🇦🇺🏴🍻cheers
In terms of favorite type of metal being seen melted, probably copper. Its very satisfying seeing it go from whatever wiring it was used in, to being molded into bright shiny brown ingots. Doesn't seem too terrible to work with, either. For least favorite, definitely aluminum. Seems like a pain in the ass to work with, and there always seems to be loads of slag during the whole process, so messy on top of that, too...
For the question about the fan mail opening, I think it could be fun for sure to see what all comes in! Maybe designate it to Saturday or Sunday if you end up deciding on making videos on it. I know I would tune in, for sure
MY FAVOURITE METAL TO WATCH MELT IS GOLD LOTS OF GOLD👀
I want you to do what makes you happy. I enjoy all of what you do.
Great video! I really love your new place. You are going to grow into it well. For Sand, casting you really need to obsess over your molds. Parting lines, sprue, cope and drag etc. just like Windy Hill foundry does.
I love watching copper, it's just so satisfying
