I live in Nebraska I have no interest and melting metal I'm a caregiver my hobby is fish tanks and aquatics I sat here and watched an hour of this and I had the time of my life so you do TH-cam well keep it up two thumbs way way up
I am glad you enjoyed the video, there is just something about a fire and melted metal. fun to watch and do, Thanks for stopping by
Oh really I live in Nebraska also go Big Red
Wow....also a caregiver here . Oregon. Make aquariums. Small world? 😋
Ok you got it on your chest ,that explains it .my father was a welder in the coal mines for 45 years and he breathes the same way but of course he has copd and black lung i guess thats why i notice so much ,sorry sir did not mean to sound rude and im glade you are healthy. I just subscribed because i really like your channel. thanks for your knowledge on scrapping.
I get quite a few mention my breathing, not much that I can do about it, I did quit smoking about 35 years ago. I am pushing about 300 lbs. around I need to loose about 80 lbs. the wife has copd and on inhalers Thanks for watching
We need more metal melting videos! You have one the most badass setups
Thank you. I wish I had more time to use it, between work and scrapping I stay busy, and the Oklahoma wind. I will retire nest year and build an addition onto the shop so that I can use this in bad weather, but I will have to have some good ventilation, but block most of the wind
I really like the idea of a waste oil burner instead of propane.
I agree. The only cost is running the compressor. You can get waste oil for free.
yeah I just use a little propane to get it started Thanks for stopping by
@@Okiescrapper UM.DID YA NOT see that the propane tank was in use,
@@ROADKILL4147 the propane is used to start the burner only
@@Okiescrapper already been used fry oil could be used when you're out of waste oil
I've melted Aluminum with oil. Gravity feed into a forced air stream(small centrifugal fan). Fan takes a lot less HP than an air compressor.
On aluminum if you get it hot it gets "short" and a blow from a hammer can make it shatter like tempered glass. It's effective for getting the iron out of castings.
No idea why I'm recommended this but I watched the whole 58 mins so I ain't complaining!
Thanks for stopping by
Same. Enjoying it tho. 👍
The burner is a great idea, using the old oil keeps your overhead down, American ingenuity at its best, thank you for your videos. Hope you have a great retirement.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, a guy a work gave me a bunch of 5 quart jugs full of old motor oil, it will last years
*This whole setup is INGENIOUS, nothing fancy and it just WORKS! Best of luck to you Sir post retirement and when you can do this more on a FT basis.*
Thank You, yeah kind of ruff it's a prototype I will add a little more refractory to it and most likely make a better one next year
Just a tip from an old mechanic. You can use a deep well socket or pipe section and a hammer to whack the top of those valve springs and the spring keepers will pop out and the valves will slide right out. This will be an easy way to speed up heating and make cleanup easier afterwards.
Thanks for the tip
It's like watching a campfire. It's so relaxing to sit and watch that molten goodness flow out!!! Kept you on your toes there for a while though! LOL!!
Yes it is a good relaxing way to spend the day and make a few dollars, I think I figured 130 small ingots will weigh about 35 lbs. so price on eBay would be around $70.00 for the box full, around $17.00 for shipping and eBay and PayPal fees. should make just over $50.00
This gentleman figured out how to roast aluminum 😂😂. Awesome to see liquid metal flow like that.
it does have a relaxing effect on a guy
@@Okiescrapper I appreciate your effort in sharing your pastimes. Hopefully you’ll have even more fun when you roast aluminum full time👍
I am an Okie too. Like the oil burning melter. My son, daughter and I started doing this for fun. lol yes fun. Tulsa area here.
That is awesome! it is fun to do Thanks for stopping by
First time iv seen waste oil used to fuel a foundry, really good idea tho, you've inspired me enough, i think ill build myself one 👍🏻
I have a play list for the waste oil burner and melting metal, with some info on the build, Thanks for watching
@@Okiescrapper ill give them a watch, thanks for making the videos 😎
Really clever using waste oil to melt aluminum.
love that style of furnace.
Okay, I can see you or I can't please everyone. Thank you for doin' what you are doing stay safe
Thanks Michael, it's all fun my camera skills need some work, a scrapper I am, a camera man not so much, Thanks for watching
Strangely captivating and satisfying.
Thank you John
Just a thought..move the cooling rack to the side instead of behind you. That should make it easier and quicker
I don't usually watch videos of this length but yours was so fascinating I would have watched you melt 5 or 6 more motors before bedtime, subscribed.
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks for the sub, some of the guys like long videos, and I figure the guys that don't will skip through it. I don't like to watch long videos either, I have lots to to but sometimes I just take it easy and don't do much all day. but that doesn't happen often, Thanks for stopping by
i clean my dirty aluminum the same way but i let it run into a kettle of water and remelt the little beads in a crucible later and pour it into ingots
I may try that, I will have to cut a hole in the bottom plate so the aluminum can flow through, and I will have to put this thing on a table frame
that sounds perfect. don't need to worry about baby sitting the muffin pans
I would make sure to keep a good distance between the water and the aluminum "spout". If there isn't enough time for the dripping aluminum to form an oxide layer before hitting water it will create hydrogen gas, and an explosion that will send your bucket of water and molten aluminum flying everywhere.
i have poured molten aluminum into water beads and water no explosions @@austinhemp9422
I have also poured aluminum shot once, and didn't have a problem. But it can happen, and there's a video here on TH-cam that shows it pretty well. Not a big firey explosion, just an eruption that sent water and aluminum everywhere. If I have time I'll find it and post the link.
Not saying it's a bad idea, in fact I plan on doing this exact thing myself. I just wanted to point out that a bucket of water would need to be much further from the furnace than his current muffin tin.
Yes you have earned my subscription, this is a type of furnace I haven't ever seen. I look forward to your other videos and to building one of my own.😄
Welcome aboard! and thank you very much, my channel is on scrapping metal and some aluminum items take to long to try to clean all the nut's and bolts off of and you still have steel items in the thing so I melt it to save time, scrap yards won't take ingots so the plan is to sell the ingots on eBay to the guys that do sand casting. I have a play list for the waste oil burner and melting metal th-cam.com/play/PLDwjkWgPa7QhOsBMArmxSoyMnJRJ9XGNk.html
Production process of aluminum continuous casting at the backyard... ))))) Nice!
it get's the job done, fun and relaxing
Watched all 58 minutes! Very relaxing!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for stopping by
Ahh.. The old garbage can table.... The best table I have in my shop... Sure there is some holes from welding on it.. but still works good...
I used that garbage can for quit a while, the melting pot sits on a very heavy table now
Very informative, thank you for taking the time to share your wisdom.
My pleasure! thanks for watching
We sometime may need metals for money the way things are going. They are printing the dollar like one’s business. Makes for bad times.
yes some people are stacking copper, brass, and aluminum, lead, I need to get a few more crucibles and some molds so that I can make a few copper and brass ingots, some to stack and others to sell on eBay

Okie here too, great idea. i got a bunch of big stuff that would be better served small LOL
Thank you, and thanks for stopping by
beats stripping them, but I agree with let it run into some Angle iron straight into a bucket to make beads,
I may take a small piece of channel iron and weld up a bracket to hold it up to the hole and see how it works. It would be nice to have the bucket on a turntable to rotate it as I go may need more then one bucket of water, with what I melted in this video and what I melted after the video total for the day was 54 lbs. used about 1.5 gallons of oil
@@Okiescrapper WHat do you get for each Ingot in scrap though? 15 pounds and getting - I'd estimate $80 - $120 doesnt seem all that worth it to me
@@shoominati23 I’d bet a lot less than that.
@@nsboost yeah he said he selling a lb. For 2$ so that would be 30$ but seems worth it since he dosnt use propane he uses oil that's been used so it's way cheaper
Great channel ive just stumbled across! You clearly work very hard, massive respect to you from Wales UK
Thank you very much! I need to get off the pc and get outside weather is great and much to do. Thanks for stopping by
Really an interesting video I'm impressed. 25 year submarine diesel mechanic
Thank You, that would be interesting working on submarine's, I should have joined the navy when I was 18 but I got into drugs and beer, , thanks for stopping by
Dang! Once you get that aluminum to temperature those cupcakes fill up fast.
yes they do, total for the melt yesterday I did 54 lbs.
That's the best set up I've seen on TH-cam yet
Thank you
A lot work for $15,,,,but I admire you for making an honest living,,,keep healthy friend
my living is from Hobby Lobby I do conveyer maintenance for them, scrapping is a Hobby and gives me some mad money, I plan to retire in February and then I can spend more time on my hobbies. and melting metal is fun. Thanks for stopping by
You need a sliding iron cover for the bottom to temporarily stop metal flow! Cool vid!!
that is an idea, I may have to try that, thanks for watching
Great idea two stage melting and oil burner to boot, yer awsome
Glad you liked it!, thanks for stopping by
I did not know you can use motor oil to do that one more use for oil that is a really good idea
some are using a drip feed to heat their shop, this setup uses a syphon nozzle, others use a drip feed and a blower on the burner, some use a tank and pressurize the tank. lot's of videos on TH-cam, Thanks for stopping by
Now I see! Sweet
hi, what a great setup, i loved this and i could do this full time i am so envious of where you live it looks beautiful even though its foggy.
i can see how much you love scrapping. thanks for the video.
it is fun to do when it's not hot out, this fall I will start using it more, going to try to make some improvements on it too
You might try to come up with a holding pit in the bottom, with a way to keep it warm. Then you control the pour into your billet cans with a channel or drain with a plug of some kind so you don't need to be there for every billet as it gets melted.... keeping it hot and keeping your drain system working are probably the most troublesome parts.
Waste oil...amazing process ....nice work ❤️🇺🇸❤️
Yes, thank you. and thanks for watching
I used to do the exact same thing, i got sick of muffins and started using bread loaf tins so i could stack them like cinder blocks on a pallet.. i even had the bright idea to bronze braze them together like a brick wall with silver bricks and gold mortar 😂 so i could build a polished silver brick dog kennel with gold mortar 😂..
I remelt the cupcake ingots as they get trash in them that falls through the hole, and then I sell the small ingots on Ebay.
New sub here ... Love the idea that you have there with that old oil ... Cheaper than propane ....
Thanks for the sub! a little work and expense getting it together. but worth it lot's of fun. and the videos are doing very good
You are a genius. That is fantastic burner. Used oil, who'd a thunk it!
Glad you liked it!. I watched a guy on TH-cam called oil burner, and got the inspiration, another guy on here had a burner and gave the link to the siphon nozzle so I gave it a try. I new I needed a lot of heat to melt in an half open pot. that is why I went with waste oil. and it is cheep, I get the oil from old mowers, my oil changes and I got a lot from a guy at work, Thanks for stopping by
Great system!
thank you
I saw another youtuber was doing something similar but the drain hole was over a bucket so every drip of aluminum formed into pellets. Thank you for taking the time to make this extensive view and showing us some of your shop as well. I am also glad you mentioned the other video with the siphon nozzle because I wanted some more specific details. Great work scrapper!
With the pellet method you don't have to be changing out the muffin pans etc.
yeah I am tossing around a few ideas on how I want to modify the melting pot, I am thinking of a hole under the other hole and take an axel that I have cut it down to just above the wheel weld a plate on it for the bucket to sit on and as the aluminum drip's into the bucket I can turn it with my foot, so the aluminum will hit in different places,
@@Okiescrapper with the drops dripping into the water bucket you wouldn't have to tend it at all. the pellets would naturally stack up and you don't have to turn anything or replace any muffin pans. Just pour out the water when finished and then when you remelt you can easily add pellets to your crucible.
Of course the muffins may be more space efficient to add to your crucible.
Anyway, not trying to tell you how to do your own project just sharing what seemed to be a good design I saw on another channel. Thanks for all your efforts in sharing your approaches. I really appreciate it!
I know a maintenence tech when I see one. Keep up the excellent work friend.
Thanks, will do! and thanks for stopping by
I'm hopping to build one some day when I get to my retirement and have the place for it. I'm sure you already thought of it, but probably insulating the outside of your foundry will help with the melt even faster, but with that oil burner set up it might be a minor thing to consider. Cool vid, thanks.
I have a thin layer of refractory cement around the inside, I need to add more, when I retire I may build a better one
“Hopping?” 😂😉
Very impressive can't wait until you start sandcasting !
You and me both!. Thanks for stopping by
I love it when u do these videos ❤️
I think a lot of people like the melting pot videos, I get a lot of views when I post a new video. Thanks for watching
I really enjoy your philosophy and presentation. I wish I lived in an area where I could this, but for now I will watch and learn.
it's kind of fun and relaxing at the same time, but it can keep you on your toes at times too, I just don't get the chance to do this as often as I would like
Try this in Calif and you will be arrested and charged with LOTS of laws broken, true and imaginary.
@@AffordBindEquipment Move way out, that should do it!
@@richardmccann4815 out of state would be preferable...
this is awesome this reminds me of when I was growing up on a farm. I need to get into something like this so I can melt copper
a furnace would be better for copper aluminum melts at 1221 F and copper at 1981 F not sure this thing would get hot enough you could use a bigger burner
that's a nice set up
Thanks! I was wanting something big enough to melt the lawnmower motors, It still needs a little work
Pretty cool technique
Thank you! Cheers!
Wicked cool furnace you got there 👍
Thanks 👍 aluminum breakage pays so little thought I could melt it down and sell the ingots on eBay to sand casters
@@Okiescrapper I don't know about your scrap yards but mine buy hand poured ingots. They take hand poured aluminum and copper. I'd just sell them to the yard if you can.
I think the burning used oil is a genius idea!
I knew with the waste oil I could get the heat that I needed, I got the idea from a guy called oil burner
This is the first time i seen your videos. I felt like i was sitting down next to you. You talking about your projects, stuff around the yard and the weather. I going to build a oil burner just like yours. Thanks for the information and i subscribed cause i like your videos.
Awesome! Thank you! glad to have you on board. I just try to be myself. and upfront and honest about everything I do, I enjoy scrapping, at one time I was going to get out of it, I stopped picking things up and slowly got most everything scrapped around here, then I looked around and said I will miss not having anything to scrap, so I started running my add again, Thanks for stopping by
Nice setup 😎
Thanks!
My neighbors would love me. You gotta have a package of weenies or marshmallows and Graham crackers with chocolate as a decoy.
my neighbors east and west are a few hundred feet away, cow's to the south and 1/4 mile to the north, it is loud, Thanks for stopping by
Your channel just popped up into my q and I was impressed with your setup for melting metals , well this video was aluminum and very nice and a good way to dispose of waste oil . So now I am a new subscriber to this channel and looking forward to seeing your next one .
Thanks for the sub! and welcome aboard, I do a lot of teardown videos. and I got into melting as the aluminum breakage price is like 10 cents a lb. and I see aluminum ingots going on eBay for $2.00 a lb. and up to about $4.00 a lb. and a guy at work gave me a lot of waste oil about a year ago, for this. so this melting pot has been in the making for a while. Thanks for watching
I think youtube are doing a good job on this lately, I've had so many good recommendations recently! 👍
Nice job
Thank you! Cheers!
The waste oil burner is brilliant!!! Two things. 1) I'd be very curious to see you sift the ash at the bottom of the forge. I'd imagine there's about half a mason jar worth of tid bit treasure down there. 2) I wonder if it's possible to hook the air compressor up to some solar panels really cutting the costs down? Waste Oil and Solar seems like a winning combo.
lot's of steel in the ash. I toss it into the shred load. you would have to have a good sized solar setup to run the compressor for any length of time. I have 200 amp hours of battery, and it will draw it down fast. so I would say a guy would need about 2000 amp hours to run the compressor for an hour or two. just a wild guess. on my electric after I hit a certain point on kilowatt's I drop down to 0.06 a KW here in Oklahoma
Looks like it works great, thanks.
yeah it does work well. I may improve on it or make another one after I retire. Thanks for stopping by
Very good.
Many many thanks. and thanks for stopping by
Nice tool! Gotta love making money out of scrap.
You got that right!
Excellent entrepreneurial spirit.

Looks like you've got it down pretty darn good
thank you. getting better I may make another one this winter
you sir kept my attention the whole time,and that's very hard for me as I've got A.D.H.D.subscribed my man and I'm gonna go watch the other video!
Welcome aboard! I am glad that you liked the video. the melting videos seem to do better then my scrapping videos, think it's the fire or melted metal. or both, Thanks for stopping by
This is a really neat setup. Way better than trying to cut up the raw materials to go into a crucible
yeah that's for sure, If I were to cut it up I think I would get a plasma cutter, aluminum plugs the teeth on saw blades. Thanks for stopping by
I love the sound of a burner roaring away
yeah nothing quit like it, Thanks for stopping by
Great video
Thanks! glad you like it
I would be down for watching a full day of this.
I used up about 1 1/2 gal of oil and melted a total of 54 lbs. yesterday, started at 3:15 and shut it down around 5
@@Okiescrapper yeah, I'm down to watch the whole thing. It's great to watch while I'm sharpening knives and doing other shop stuff.
Sarcasm much Brando? If not, then you gotta get out more often son!
Because watching a full day of this is like kissing your sister more than once just to see if it really isn’t all that bad!
Just saying
@@klausvonschmit4722 🤬
Great video! My favorite vids are by people who can take things that others have thrown away and use them to make D.I.Y. items that could cost thousands to buy. I sold my shop about 15 years ago (I built and designed custom machinery) and retired--for about 2 months. I closed in an old tractor shed behind my house and bought some old machines. I brought in 2 South Bend lathes, a 14 1/2 inch swing with a 6' bed, and a 9 inch with a 3' bed. A9" Clausing lathe, an Enco milling machine, a drill press, and a welding area with gas, stick, MIG, tig, and plasma cutting. I started getting interested in foundry work by watching it on TH-cam. I started out small and before I knew it I was building bigger flasks than I could lift, filled with sand. At that point, I knew I had to make some changes. The first thing was to be able to lift these flasks, so I built a crane from pressure-treated 2x12 laminated together to make a pedestal crane that could swing a 12' rad. The next step was a ramming-up table. It had to be very strong and very flat. I built the table frame from P.T.4x4 and to get the flattest top possible I poured a reinforced concrete slab with the top1" self-leveling cement. Now to test the crane. It wasn't possible to pour the top in place so I used my new crane to set it. With all the material used that top had to be just shy of 1000 pounds, far more than any mold I would make. It made some scary noises but did the job. The new foundry can do 17 pounds of aluminum in 17 min. Something I don't see anyone else doing is using 10 and 12-pound dry chemical fire extinguisher tanks that can no longer pass the certification test. I cut the tops off and use them as crucibles. They last for years, in fact, I still use the first one I ever made. My new burner is a four-channel setup. The middle handles waste oil, the second propane, the third, compressed air, and the space between the inner and outer tubes is for high volume air. For my larger flasks, I use a concrete mixer to tune the moisture in the sand. When the sand is ready, it is dumped into a box hooked to the crane. The mixer is next to the crane, so it is easier to get the box in position to open the side and start filling the cope. When the cope is rammed up, the box is set down and a 3/16 steel plate is screwed to the bottom to hold the sand in place while it is being moved. A special flask lifter hooks onto the cope and the crane lifts and turns it over. The other halves of the patterns are installed then the drag is bolted in place. The tubes for pouring and venting are placed and the drag is rammed up. When the ramming up is done. the tubes are removed and the drag gets a steel plate too. Now the bolts are removed from the flask and the flask lifter lifts the drag and turns it over. The patterns are stripped, gates and sprues are cut, and repairs are done. The crane lifts and flips the drag and places it back on the cope and the bolts go back in. The crane and lifter now hook onto the lugs on the cope and bring the flask to the pouring station. The steel plate is removed from the drag and the riser is placed and we are ready to pour.
sounds like you have a very good setup, it sounds like you should start a youtube channel, I am sure a lot of guys would like to see your setup
@@Okiescrapper I really don't want to commit to a TH-cam channel, but when the weather breaks I can get back to doing my castings. When I saw your setup with a continuous melt foundry, you got my attention. The only thing for mine is it has to be cleaned between batches as I sort by alloys. I melt everything from cans to 7075T6. I even scored a block, heads, and pistons with rods from a funny car, 100 pounds of billet 7075T6. I will probably do some videos of the foundry and some of the machines I built for fun, but I don't want to do it on a regular basis.
All I can say is ,,you are the man wow
I didn't want to through all that dirty aluminum into the shred, or spend time cleaning it to get 10 cents a lb. breakage price, the plan is to sell it on eBay for $2.00 a lb. If I get to sell it there, I have 2 buyers lined up now. thanks for stopping by
Awesome video
Thanks for the visit
You did not get to sit down very long! Great video!
Yeah I need to turn the oil down a bit let it melt slower, but it is fun
thank you for sharing

that would be neat, free electric
Love the idea really nice👍
Glad you like it!
We've watched lots on the TV so I may have my comments muddled but we enjoyed looking around the outside space and the alu melting👍
it is nice out here, a mile of gravel road, cow's to the north and south, only 4 houses past me so very little traffic, and I have 5 acres. It's hard to scrap and live in the city, too many laws and rules. I may have to do a walkaround of the back field some day
@@Okiescrapper I love living in the country too.
That sounds great because I find it fascinating seeing what beautiful places other people live in!
Absolutely refreshing to see someone doing hot metal work wearing pants and men's shoes instead of being half necked and wearing Ho Chi Minh sandals.
Looks like we have an actual job rated man here.
Thank you, I need to get more safety stuff. I do have a leather apron that I should ware
Seems like alot of BTU s for a gallon of old oil great video
and that is a 1 gallon per hour siphon nozzle. and still if I turn it oil up to much it will drip out the back of burner, I may need a bigger pipe and think what a larger nozzle would do.
great video. never a dull moment .

Thanks for coming, I enjoy melting metal and the melting videos do very good for me, Thanks for watching
the motor at 41:30 is a lawnboy 2 stroke motor. I'm sure you would have made more money selling it, than melting it. I bet you on ebay it would have sold pretty fast with no reserve. I'm glad I found this video. Waste oil is so easy to get. The scrap is easy to get too.
I get a few of the old lawnboys now and then, didn't know there was a market for them. I need to get some storage cleaned up to start putting stuff like that on eBay. will have to set stuff aside until I retire then I can get stuff done
Add a pipe under your 3/4 drain for your melded aluminum right in to your second unit and save a step .I am also using a blower so no compressor running .i am also using bigger trays . Thanks for the good ideas. I am melting a 6x6x8 foot pill of aluminum and a pile of aluminum car rims .
I need compressed air for the siphon nozzle
@@Okiescrapper if u have the time . I used a 6 inch solid round 3/4 inch and driled 2 3/16 holes down the center one above the other about 5 inches .from the tip drill in to the two holes with 1/16 taper that end . the uper is for propane the lower one is for oil .tap and use brake lines . U nead 2 inch pipe 5 inches one end 90 degrees the other 45 degrees. Use a nother pipe cut at 45 degrees drill a 3/4 hole in the back of the 45 degrees so it lines up with 5 inche center of small piece . Depending on your blower and jet size. No brass all steal . I even got fancy and used self starting propane controls off a expensive barbecue I scraped. I spent a lot of time billing it . Still modifying it. I enjoy this kind of stuff. Thanks .

Welcome good to have you on board, I have a play list for the oil burner and melting metal
Great and simple setup. Just FYI, 4 nuts to remove the fan , then once that’s off there’s another 3 or 4 holding the steel bracket on. Definitely a lot easier than grinding it off.
yeah I took it into the shop and broke it down

For aq bit of a while I have been thinking about collecting and melting down scrap metal myself.
Your video has given me a bunch of ideas how to go about deciding how to melt down metal
I hope your endeavors to go full time into scrapping goes well
it is fun and relaxing to do, I plan to retire next February If I can force myself to get up and go to work every day, TH-cam and SSI should work out well for the bills. Thanks for watching

Use a cookie sheet then cut it into strips. It will melt faster for the second pour
How about installing one of those crazy powerful fishing magnets to on a swivel next to the outlet to catch any iron/steel trying to get through said hole...
