Pretty dang nice, triple payout!!! You have a working ac, two nice copper bars for the stack, and you won at the slots. Awesome video and Happy Birthday brother!!!
Thanks so much brother!! I actually loaned that working AC to my friend whom is renovating one of his apartments, after I swapped the knobs from the busted one of course 🤣. Overall a pretty decent teardown and melt. Thanks for watching and the birthday wishes bro! 😎🍻👊🏼
Thanks brother, I’m glad you like the shirt! Eventually I’ll start making them for subscribers 😉 Just wait til I scrap out the big boy A/C that I still have on the pallet, I’m hoping for double the yield! Thanks for watching! 😎👊🏼👍🏼🍻
Hey S2C! First, thx for the shout out again. I liked this video a lot because there was much of scrapping in it. at the end it was a mess but you got a large amount of copper out. the graphite in the molds seemed to help not to have too many holes in the bars. on top, a little profit on the slot machine. as always thank you for your work to bring me joy watching your videos! see you soon. PS: Belated Happy Birthday 👊🍻🎂 from Germany
You’re very welcome my friend! I’m glad you liked it! I do try to keep the tear downs trimmed of all the useless stuff like fumbling with tools and this and that. The editing process does get tiring but after it is all set and done, I can definitely appreciate the work that went into it. Not a bad pile of copper for sure! I have an even bigger AC that I’ll be scrapping in the next few weeks! The graphite molds do seem to help a bit, but still not 100% perfect. I’ll get there one day! Thanks a bunch for watching my friend and see you on the next one! Have a great week! 😎🍻👊🏼👍🏼
Thanks bro! Was a rough week but finally pulled the video off 🤣. I try my best to keep it interesting. July 28th is the channels 2 year anniversary. I better come up with something! 😎🍻👊🏼
@@Scrap2Cast loved it man, totally worth the wait. It also looks like the subs are going up too. When I joined it was 50 subs. So keep it coming and you’re channel will keep growing. “If you build it, they will come”. 🤩
Them tig-o-baritties 😂😂😂 those came out much nicer bro. After my 9 lb copper melt on Sunday, I’m understanding why people like doing copper melts. Holy hell. You turned me in to a copper melting addict 😂😂😂
Thanks brother! They don’t look too bad but they ain’t perfect 😔 Those bigger copper melts are awesome but really eat up the propane. Speaking of which, I need more propane 🤣. Sounds like we need to join CAA (Copper Addicts Anonymous) 😉🍻👊🏼👍🏼
I agree, scrapping Ac units are a pain in the ass. Nice tear down though. two nice chunky bars to add to the stack. I do have to say your editing skills are on point. Wish I had the patience to do that
Oh they are definitely a pain in the butt but well worth tearing apart. Thanks brother I really appreciate it. I think I spend on average of 4-6 hours of editing per video. Its very tiresome especially when I have a deadline but well worth it in the end. Pretty soon I’ll be putting all my vids on DVD’s for my own enjoyment 🙂. Thanks for watching brother! 😎🍻👊🏼
Thanks brother! I’m a firm believer of that statement! I gotta admit this is the largest copper season by far! Going to be tough to top this one! Thanks for watching brother and cheers from the USA! 😎🍻👊🏼
Damn I know you hate air conditioners but that’s quite a bit of copper. Ingots came out nice too. Plus - you won again. Looks like a great day scrapping and casting and winning.
Thanks bro! I really do hate scrapping them because of how messy and the strain you get cutting the pipes out of the rads oh and getting the stator out of those compressors!!!! But in the end, well worth it for the copper! The slot has been on a roll lately!😎🍻👊🏼
Happy Belated Birthday. Sorry I didn't catch that sooner. Nice shirt too. I was thinking, with those holes in those ingots, why not use a bore bit to drill a divit into them? I think it would give them unique character in your stack.
Thanks and no worries brother! My friends wife did a great job on the shirt and my sister made one too with a different slogan for me. I haven’t seen her recently so I’m real eager to see which option she went with. That is a pretty good idea actually! I really wish I could get the “perfect bar” consistently. There’s only a couple of those hidden in the stack 😎🍻👊🏼
@Scrap2Cast the whole outta case is copper. It's that round thing in the copper refrigerant line like a stubby cigar, just so we're talking about the same thing.
Thanks bro! You should melt it down if you want to hang onto and stack it for a rainy day. That was my plan since day 1. I do cash in some stuff like larger aluminum that I’m too lazy to cut up, circuitboards, irony aluminum, low grade wire, batteries, etc. one thing you can do is sell ingots on ebay for way higher than scrap value. You can also contact a local foundry which more than likely pay top dollar. You do have options if you decide to melt down the metals 🙂🍻👊🏼
@@bigcountryscrapper6885 Could also call other yards in your area and ask if they have an XRF analyzer gun. Big yards tend to have them and may purchase hand poured bars because they can always zap it to check for purity
I like the video and been scraping and making bars but no local scrap yards will buy them even with a video of me melting wire and they have a metal analyzer they said there buyer won’t take it and I can’t sell it on marketplace so I have just been keeping it in 5 gallon buckets for now
You can sell them on eBay for a higher profit if you want to go that route. If you have a large supply of them, you can look into working directly with a foundry and see if you can unload them that way. Personally I would only melt down #2 copper and sell your #1 copper as-is.
In this particular video, that AC didn’t have any refrigerant inside. Upon inspection there was corrosion around one of the copper loops and I think it leaked out from there. I always test AC’s as I find them. If they work, I sell them on Marketplace. The ones that don’t work get scrapped out on the channel. I always use caution when cutting the lines, I have been fooled before.
Interesting! I’ve scrapped a window unit before and the previous owners said the Freon leaked out and when I cut the copper, Freon/R-22 spewed in my face and it smelled horrible!
Oh geez! You’re lucky you didn’t go blind! I do have a method for the “just in case there is refrigerant still inside scenarios” I use the loppers that I showed in this video, I slightly put pressure on the line and if I hear a slight hiss from the line, I don’t continue to cut the line. I take a wet towel and cover the line where it is leaking out from. The wet towel will absorb the refrigerant and not keep pissing out into the atmosphere. A little overkill as the scrapyards around here release that refrigerant all the time and the garbage trucks compact the units when they collect the trash.
I should rephrase, I hate scrapping AC compressors! They are so oily and dirty and cutting into the outer steel shell is a pain in the butt. However I still scrap them because like you said they are loaded 🙂
If you enjoyed this video, please give me a thumbs up! I appreciate all of your support! 🙂👍🏼
Now that's what I call a lot of copper. 😋😊😋🎉
Thanks brother but that’s nothing compared to what I expect to get from the larger unit I have stashed on the pallet 😁🍻👊🏼

Another great video as always! Love big piles of copper
Thanks a bunch bro! I’m with you there! I love copper!!! 🤤👊🏼🍻
Happy Birthday! Great video again!!
Thanks a bunch brother! Glad you enjoyed it! I’m eager to see what we get from the bigger air conditioner still on the pallet 😉🍻👊🏼
Good to see you back, man! Nice melt, that sure was a scrap-ton of copper!
Thanks bro! Two weeks without a video being posted was torture for me! Not a bad little haul but the best has yet to come 😉🍻👊🏼
Awesome video always nice copper bars thanks for sharing s2c
Thanks brother! Always appreciate your kind words! Thanks for watching and have a good week bro! 😎🍻👊🏼
You're welcome friend and happy belated birthday and have a great week too
Thanks Bro! 😎👍🏼👊🏼
You're welcome friend
Hey man cool shirt. That was a hell of a load of copper. Keep it up

Hey man, I love that Statement on your working Table. You already have a lot of copper this season, pretty nice. Keep going.
Greetings from Bavaria.
Thanks brother! I’m a firm believer of that statement! I gotta admit this is the largest copper season by far! Going to be tough to top this one! Thanks for watching brother and cheers from the USA! 😎🍻👊🏼
always a thumbs a thumbs up from me bro 👍

Can't you do a knob transplant 😮 worked for Bobbitt 😅
Already did 🤣. Took those knobs and put it on the 8000 and loaned it to my buddy for a few weeks
You can throw that in line dryer in the pot the steel bits float.😮
Any copper worth mentioning in them?
@Scrap2Cast the whole outta case is copper. It's that round thing in the copper refrigerant line like a stubby cigar, just so we're talking about the same thing.
Yup I know exactly what piece you’re talking about! I’ll give it a try next time! Thanks for the info!
@Scrap2Cast of course you could just cut it into and dump out the balls and pull out the screens....
Great video bro iv thought about melting stuff I pickup but my yard won't take melted metals

@@Scrap2Casti melted all rotten ground wires that the scap said he would give me less then #3 and I had 50lbs of it
Awesome bro! Keep stacking that copper!

Thank you very much my friend! 😎🍻👊🏼
Curious, you said you hate scrapping ACs…. Why? They seem to give great return for labor…
