Making BRONZE Megalodon teeth │ Metal Fossils
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 พ.ค. 2021
- In this video I cast a pair of 4" bronze Megalodon teeth in my backyard foundry. I used bronze consisting of 95% copper and 5% tin to create these teeth.
Megalodon is an extinct species of shark that lived approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago, during the Early Miocene to the Pliocene.

Those are WAY cool! I did some small casting when I was in high school (about a hundred years ago)...but that was NOTHING like what you do. That was really nice to watch. Thank you.
Megalodon implants? awesome!!!!
Me now watching other casting youtubers: WHY U NO ESTABLISH PARTING LINE!
Your castings are top-notch, keep them coming!
Hey Seth, watching your foundry work makes me glad I work in resin! It’s so much easier! Great channel, really fun to watch.
I’m happy to watch and learn from both of you! It’s so odd to be commenting on your comment Robert since I recently became a fan and binge watched all of your videos. Hope to work with you one day on a project. Love your work!
Legend resiner right there 👆
Have you considered other locations for the runners? Putting them at the root makes sense logistically, but it leaves one hell of a witness mark.
You make it look easy.
Love the simple old school style videos.
Awesome technique, thanks for sharing!
Have You ever tried to dig kind of a "pool" on the top side of the mold (where You pour the molten metal in) that has an "overflow" to finally fill the cavity? I guess that should prevent molten metal from the top-surface of the crucible (possibly oxidyzed or with slag) flowing into the cavity. I don't know if adapting that would bring a further improvement, but it's certainly worth a try.
I enjoy watching your casting videos. Nice job, Seth!
Thank you very much!
Works intelligently and safely to produce objects of beauty.... a true rarity amongst TH-cam hobby casters! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Hey Seth, I made your furnace with some modifications about 2 years ago. Works real well!
So skilled casting technique, wow 😃
Is there any way I can commission you to make another megalodon tooth in bronze?
I love your works! I have a few questions: what type of sand did you use for casting? Where can I find that sand? After casting, can that sand be used again for casting? I hope you will reach 100k subscribers very soon!!!!!
Thank you very much! So do I. I buy my sand from petrobondforsale.com. You can reuse it many times. I scrape off the black sand and keep it separate. After I have a bunch of the black / dark sand accumulated I will mix it up and rehydrate it with a little oil. It’s better if you can keep the burnt rehydrated sand separate from the fresh stuff but you can mix it also. 100 lbs should last a long time.
Those turned out awesome! Nicely done!
Great video mate. Those castings came out amazing!!👍👍
You need to make more! So sad I missed the chance on these.
Soo glad I found your channel!! Please make a Smilodon skull next 😍
I ❤️ watching you work… great job‼️
Very cool - I cant wait to start pouring.
Just purchased! Thank you for offering these.
How much did you pay for one?
Amazing! I've done a few small investment castings of ammonite fossils, but something this size is mind blowing for me!
Wow these are nice. Would make a great present for my dad.
Thank you!
For such a small youtube channel, you're most likely the best casting youtube channel. nice work
Spectacular!!!
Awesome casting
Amazing work, keep it up!
Another great video and amazing pieces of art! I’ve been watching your videos since your first bronze dagger video and it’s amazing how much you’ve been able to hone in your skills. Seems so effortless for you now. I started casting bronze in my backyard a few years back but I never reached your level. I do more 3D printing these days and treasure hunts. I still have many pieces I’d like cast though. Are you interested in doing any commissioned pieces? Do you have a public contact page? Thanks again!
This was neat to watch. I have a few real Megalodon teeth fossils.
Beautiful
good work ROBINSON ,your ideas are great--!!
GREAT WAY TO GO WISH YOU BEST GOOD LOCK
How many teeth are you gonna make damn lol. I'm glad you're back into making stuff again!
That is really amazing !!!

Sweet Job

Well done!!
Spectacluar!

Those teeth are huge makes me very happy that they are dead. We wouldn't stand a chance if they were still prowling the waters. Fantastic job on the teeth.

Your work is the best ASMR a man could get. Keep your amazing work, mate!
Very true.
Much appreciated! Thank you!
Yoo can you make some more? I would gladly pay for a set
Yeah, I was disappointed that they’re sold out. Please make more!
The one thing that I hate about this video is how long it is
How do you prevend a layer of metal solidifying inside your crucible after every pour?
Fantastic seth
Thank you!
i have so much questions here....but have you tried making wind chimes from these teeth using different sizes!!!! because that is a wind chime I would love to have!!!
Them pimp megalodon sharks be like:
You do great work.
What do you use for clear coat?
Thanks! I use Protectaclear.
Hey Seth,
Your link doesn’t work anymore. Is it still possible to buy this teeth or perhaps any other creation ?
Thanks and keep up with this excellent channel !
Are you still interested in purchasing a tooth?
Any chance of you making more of these?
Hey hey! My niece LOOOOOOVES sharks and her grandmother shaved the tip off a shark tooth necklace. Literally blunt edge, zero shame, iTs nOw sAfe fOr aN 8 yR Old. I absolutely want to buy one of these from you because my niece will flip out when she sees it and gets to take it home.
What’s the term for the watering can thing you were using to sieve the sand through? I’ve been looking to find one but can’t figure out what it’s called
Just spitballing here, but it looks exactly like a stainless-steel flour sifter.

@@andreipendle1778 I think that’s probably it, thanks!
Yep it’s just a flour sifter. They’re not made for sand so some work better than others. I pick them up at garage sales and thrift stores.
Very cool. I learned many cool tips. What 3d program do you use? What printer is that in your video? TY
Good job friend
Could you make a lady dimitrescu statue
First time I've ever seen casting sand fall away so easily. How do you manage that?
And what do you prefer as a clear coat?
It's the way he made the mold.
Delicate!
Thanks!
12 were already sold. That's like two per day.
The poor paleontologist who unearth these in the future 😯🤔😕😞
You ever think about using a casting silicone?
Do you do custom orders ?
question the sand you use is that petrobond ?
Dude - you should not be printing directly on your heatbed like that! Put a (flex) buildplate on it.. 🙈🙈
Was that Delft clay you used for sand?
Looks like that megalodon was from Memphis
Are you still selling these Meg teeth? These are absolutely phenomenal.
Are you still interested in purchasing a tooth?
i actually have 2 megalodon teeth as well as coprolite which is dinosaur dung.
Tell me the price just to know If I can Afford it ..love them
Buy 8 weld them to a bear trap.
Do you make any more things for sale?
What is the background music?
Délicate attention Bertysolo instrumental
How much do the ones listed on eBay weigh?
They probably weigh around 1.5 pounds. He said he uses 3 pounds of bronze in the video, and there are two teeth, so probably around 1.5 each. Well, maybe a little less if you include the metal that went into the sprue.
I wonder what they sold for
But you don’t ship to the UK 😩 please can you ship one?
I will! I set up the listing to accept international orders. You weren’t able to purchase one?
Would you be will to make a custom piece for me????
If your going to start selling your work, why not etsy?
Could you sell some more of these?
Are you still interested in purchasing a tooth?
