HOW TO MIRROR FINISH A BAR
I start with an 80 grit flap disc on my angle grinder then I use my drill with 50 mm round sanding discs . I start with 150 grit then go through the following Grits 240-400-800 Then once I get to the following Grits I use a small squirt of WD-40 1200-1500-2000-2500-3000. The WD40 helps to lubricate the discs and stops the sanding disk binding up with the metal powder . Then after that I use my buffer wheel on my bench grinder to get a perfect mirrored finish on it??????.

this'll be the last melt i watch before i ship off to boot camp. i look forward to having a backlog of your videos to watch once i return.
Best of luck at boot camp recruit!! Enjoy it and push on everytime no matter how hard life gets
Goodluck at bootcamp. 👍
I hope you never have to go to war.
Don’t sell yourself out to the Army bro live your own life
Hope you enjoy what ever branch you joined I know I'm enjoying the Navy
"Never add cold metal to molten metal" Good on you to put these tips in there. I was melting some aluminum and thought my metal was dried already but it was laid next to the propane tanks which condensed water on them and they got wet. Luckily no major injuries, just lost a bit of hair which grew back. Make sure to wear your aprons and eye protection!
Sincerely glad you're okay.
I've seen those "wet charge" videos and they are scary! I couldn't fathom it being in my own space with my own equipment. 😱
But then on the retry of the failed piece he adds in many bits of copper straight in the crucible with molten copper. Are those preheated or what's the deal?
🎂🎂
😱
I don't know why TH-cam recommended me this channel, but after watching several of your videos I can tell the algorithm knew what it was doing, this stuff is great.
I feel the same way lol
you're totally right. enjoin' every episode....
That was a lot of pull tabs! Nice work. The bar is way better! And the goonies casting came out great. 👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers buddy , I appreciate the feedback from someone who actually knows what they’re talking about👊🏻😁🇺🇸🇦🇺🍻🍻
@@bigstackD so why didn't you just melt the pull tabs with the can? Are they made out of different materials?
@@raloed.363 the cans were recycled in another way, basically being put in a machine which stores it to be sent to a proper recycling facility and rewarding the recycler 10 cents, i believe. So the pull tabs were kept so he could do this with them
@@raloed.363 Apparently there is
4.5% Mg
95.2% Al
0.35% Mn
in the top and bottom of the can and
1.0% Mg
97.8% Al
1.2% Mn
in the rest of the can.
For the fact that you do the Goonies Key (to One-Eyed-Willy's treasure) earns you 4 (totally human) thumbs WAY up! 👍👍👍👍
Have you noticed the channel icon?
I think you need a fix-it-Felix hammer to ram that sand up with 🤔 how many of those tabs fell in the furnace? I dropped a bunch when I did mine 🤣 great job brotha!
I'm starting to think we don't sleep haha, I can't sleep I have insomnia : /
@@MRBOOOYA oof
The hammer should be made out of nomadic gold
The hammer should be made out of tungsten.
@@Cliffsidenexus : Yes, but is it a magic hammer 🔨he got from his father? 😆😉😏 😐🙄 #FixItFelix
This video hit home for me because of the goonies plaque, literally this past Monday morning at work my best friend and coworker had brought in a Big goonies poster that was framed that he said he had found in the dump and he hung it up in the shop, so Tuesday Our boss saw it hanging up and wanted him to take it down and he didn’t take it down, and on Wednesday morning I received some bad news that my best friend and coworker had went to sleep Tuesday night and never woke up. R.I.P. Ian Messamore you will be missed!!
😞
My favorite metal to see melted is copper! I also love the way it looks after it's dunked in water or ice, but before it's polished! The black and reds and weird orange-y, it's the prettiest!
The Goonies love has just elevated this channel to my #1. That was my generations first teen/coming of age movie and, my all time favorite film.
Epic double forge melt action.
Would like to see a big can melt and ingot at well. A proper thick boy brick.
It’s great to see that Goonies key. That’s like, years and years ago “my furnace is a propane cylinder with firebrick” BigStackD era. I love it.
Imagine during apocalipse. This guy would be a literal god of the wasteland with all those pure metals at hand. The Legendary Blacksmith
He'd at least be a great supplier for Australian blacksmiths
The extra camera work you've been doing lately improves the otherwise static shots. Keep up the good work mate!
As someone who owns a metal detector.. This brings tears of joy to my eyes seeing these ring pulls melted down. Beaver tails as we call the old uns and bottle tops are the devil's trash on beaches burried in the sand. Please do more lol.
Think of all the pulls you found over the years. Regret not keeping m now?😜
Old boy I work with has been saving pull tabs for ever! Dudes got several 50gal drums and stacks of 5 gal buckets full of them.. it’s crazy!
“I wonder if my neighbors enjoy the explosions…”
The neighbors: “‘E’s at it again, Frank! Fourth time this week!”
Fantastic work as always. My favorite metal is aluminium. A couple of bits: the green flames are something wholly unique and exciting, the large bar is great to see, melting a solid piece of brass is mind-blowing, and you have the perfect antidote to a cold day, a thousand-degree fire! Thanks again for all you do.
Why is aluminum your favorite metal?
Hey! I love your videos and have 'caught up' with all of them now. The one thing I most admire about you is that you are not afraid to share your failures as well as your successes. That takes cojones and not many would be so upfront. What it demonstrates clearly is how difficult what you do actually is. Keep up the good (and not-so-good!) work. Oh, and let's see much more of your beautiful Frenchies. I'm crazy about Ingot...
A mishap with the triple stones and yet he pushes on to make another... Because Goonies Never Say Die!!!
Super cool castings! And just hearing those four notes repeating at the end brought me right back to the day it was released!
Good times!
Best of luck!
You're so darn close to that million mark! It's been so amazing to have watched this channel, and that pile, grow! Cheers to you for the many great melts!
Looks like the Algorithm smiled upon him.
I cannot wait to get my furnace and start melting my copper stack, everytime I watch you the casting urge gets stronger lol!!! I'm collecting ring pulls too👍 I love the way you wobble the molten aluminium, so gorgeous and very satisfying (I know I'm a strange woman😂 but it is!!!)
Glad you kept that copper "fail" as it looked very cool.
Sitting on the porch at the cottage with my morning coffee watching bigstackD’s latest melt. Life is good! Greetings from 🇨🇦.
It's Friday eveniing. I'm drunk. I listen to some deep house music. I have my bottle of Russian 55° Vodka next to me. And I watch a video from BSD... What could possibly go wrong ?? 🥰🥰
Thx matey, greetings from France to a very nice Aussie. People like you make others feel better. Stay safe. And God bless Australia 🥰🥰
Btw, my nickname is Friday lol
Absolute gold to measure the temp of the beer with the Infrared Thermometer. Outstanding idea. Obviously, each time you actually touch a beer to feel how cold it is you up the temp. Each degree counts (Unless you are English of course)
We DO NOT like warm beer🙈🤣 Well to be fair I'm a vodka and coke woman anyway 😜
@11:07 his cokes also say to share one with big stack d
The moment you are pleasantly surprised that it's Friday, when you see a new bigstackD video
Yo that's the key from The Goonies! Man I love that movie, especially when I was a kid.
the Algorithm brought me here.. and im not mad.. so chill to watch your videos..
This has been my favorite so far. Never say die!
Cheers. 🤙
Man, I'm totally addicted to your channel. Keep this way. My favorites are the copper and aluminium melts.
Greetings from 40°C Spain.
Great tribute to the Goonies, awesome show, awesome video too, thanks for sharing
Goonies was one of my high school favorites
Enjoyed this video. I plan on getting one of these bigstackd forges in the upcoming months. The thing that I found interesting to me is I just started saving tabs from cans this week and here you made a video of that. And Goonies that was interesting. I enjoyed that movie back in the day. Also I have new inspiration for uses of my 3d printer. Keep the videos coming. 👍
If you actually counted those tabs twice, your OCD is on another level and I appreciate that.
I have no idea why you do this or how much work it takes, but I love watching. and you add your dogs to the video. Thanks for helping me relax and smile.
I work in an Aluminium smelter and i understand your passion. Thanks for the great vids. ❤️💯👌
When you get to a ton, will you cash it all out for scrap value, or keep going to 2 ton? Either way, i enjoy watching from the USA.
He said way back in the day he doesn't want to sell it. Just a goal he has. I had questioned on the same thing before myself.
1 tonne face reveal video lol 😂
@@wizdude Turns out he's actually HowToBasic.
@@Halloween111 omg. That video where he did the egg melt. It all makes sense now!
@@Halloween111 Is he actually??
You should check the back of the fridge to see if there are any colder beers than the ones up front. I would imagine that all that colder ones would be found there. Just a thought!. Thank you for the idea of getting a devil forge. Got pretty use to aluminum and am about to step it up a notch and do some copper once I get my new molds in the mail this weekend.. Mmmmmmm copper!
If the fridge is working properly, it shouldn't matter where inside it the beers come from.
Everything in the fridge on the same shelves is the same temperature. No idea why simple minded fools think things at the back of the fridge are colder than the front.
@Paul Osborn no it is not. That's a complete myth. The whole fridge is the same temperature.
@Paul Osborn the colder air is at the bottom of the fridge. You have no idea what you're talking about. If all the beers are in the same shelf then they'll all be relatively the same temperature. There won't be any huge difference between the back and the front. Stop believing in old wives tales and do some research to stop making yourself look dumb time making stupid comments.
@@ThePrufessa Anyone ever stop to think about where the cold comes from, it makes it colder in that area. The coldest part in my fridge is the top right directly under where the source of the cold is. I'll get bottles of water that are frozen there and nowhere else in the fridge. Nice try on saying all parts are equal temp though.
ORV BULLET HOLES!! Love that Cherokee.
I love the green flame from copper. And I also love when the copper boils itself clean. It's just a neat effect.
I'm right on time
Been waiting for this! Cant wait to see when ya hit your goal of 1 tonne.
It will be on Friday March 29th, 2024.
I've been to the future. I know.
I love the green fire when you are melting copper. It looks really mystic.
Wow, huge amount of melting, casting and I'm sure sanding and polishing. Really like that 1.5Kg bar - and the Goonies reference - because those 80's cultural references are far and few between ... and I'm old! Great video! 😃
The GOONIES was and still is one of my all time favorite movies. Doing One Eyed Williys key was excellent, it would great done in Nordic gold, thanks for just a tiny line down memory lane . Can you do a zombie face from night of the living dead that would be awsome.
That aluminium bar is a bit wonky, but still great!
I love the Goonies plaque, but the copperbone is better!
I remember when you made lead ones! :D
Thanx D!
Get him Ingot! Bite HIS leg! LMAO
👊🏻😁🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
Another excellent video. I loved that your dogs were tucked up in their little beds on a rainy day. So cute :-)
Listening to your furnace helps me fall asleep ☺💤
"I don't' always recycle, but when I do, I look like an alcoholic."
You should make a mold out of the crucible so when the metal cools and you decide to melt it again it'll be like a perfect fit
That may cause a kaboom but idk
My favorite metal to see melted is GOLD!
The Goonies is a great movie, I still enjoy watching it from time to time.
Is it just me or are green flames really cool?
I also like green flame 🔥
It's you. Green flames, just like any other color, are extremely hot to the touch.
;)
Absolutely loved this! I've also been wanting to do this for years.
The gloves remind me of a place I used to work at. One very large room there was a liquid fat tanks and they kept the temperatures at 130 degrees. That was the room temp, the tanks had to stay fluid. I was working nearby and needed a ladder and recalled there was an aluminum one in that room, so I absent mindedly walked in there and grabbed it, turned and walked nothing as I screamed a bit and let go of the ladder... frikkin thing was 130 degrees! I saw you wearing gloves, and reach in to flick a tab in and couldn't help to think a move like that with no glove would have turned out much different. Safety is so important, make it a muscle memory
i love seeing you make nordic gold and the shapes you make it into.
I'm lit late but one time it's 37 sec
You should make an in depth tutorial for the entire process and why your doing what your doing. It would be helpful because I am exceptionally thick.
Also wouldn't it be easier to weigh one tab, then weigh the whole thing, and divide?
Issue is one tab dont pickup on the scales
@@southaussiegarbo2054 could count like 20 and weigh that. But bigstackD didn't actually wanna count any, it was just for humor.
@@absolutezero11385 ik lol.
Btw I done it awhile back and yeah it takes ages.
@@southaussiegarbo2054 It depends what kind of scale you use. Cooking scales and scientific scales would work for measuring such a small mas just fine.
@@absolutezero11385 but by doing weight u need to add or subtract for larger or smaller tabs
I really like how the partially filled pirate coin turned out. Sometimes there's-almost-enough-to...oh-never-mind are the best!
Nice idea man👍🏻 Keep them coming⛏🏴
I have a piecework scale for doing tear weights & telling you how many itty bitty parts you have in a bin for computer parts, $40 on eBay maybe you can find one & that’ll answer the question of EXACTLY how many pull tabs were in this perfect bar!
tare* weight, and yeah, we use the same method to figure out how many nuts and bolts we have of each type. :)
You could have just weighted one piece and divided it by total weight to know how many pieces
ಠ◡ಠ
Exactly what I was thinking
0:35 excellent taste in movies, everytime I see mention of is I can hear 'Heeeeeey you guys!' in my head
So I'm guessing that the value of these videos is to save the metal that we throw away daily to increase your financials. It's also a badass hobby!
That's the right call to keep that "fail", it look really cool like real treasure
Jack le pirate ! BRAVO POUR CE TU FAIS !!!! C'est sincère.
Wow it's a special edition TWO furnace melt! 👍👍🍺🍻
I love the brick smashing the ice!
I wasn't expecting it, but this random vid was extremely satisfying to watch.
I love the Goonies. Chester Copperpots key i would love to have one.
LOVE this channel for some reason and I'm not into melting myself. Just a science guy and this is fascinating. Love the dogs too! Thanks for videos. Almost a Million, Congratulations!!
NO WAY. I remember the goonies movie from my childhood aside from drop dead fred it's my all time favorite movie. Hey you guys lol
Yeah Goonies.. One of the best movies ever.... I have seen it a 1000 times, but I will still watch at the age of 60.
What is your favorite spot? I like the little kid with all the inventions...
I am so glad you like the Goonies it's one of the best movies out there. I have been all over the filming locations on the Oregon coast. The Jail is now a film museum for movies filmed in Oregon.
I have yet to forge. I am taking silversmithing and learned cutting, carving, sanding and buffing metals to add to my growing collection of cut cabs and slabs. I am trying to learn as many melting arts as possible. Thank you for the fun and very informative videos. Hats off to ya (:
i worked in a foundry and the key to good molds is to pour hard and fast to keep the cup 3/4 full. plus make your cup holes bigger in a funnel shape.
us: how much metal you got?
bigstackd: yes
This is way more useful than just making a necklace out of them or using them as washers like I have! Just goes to show how such a tiny thing can seriously add up, you know?
Man, that rain outside and nice corona with no one bothering you in that nice house👍good life.
Wow 3 Cheers in this video! Love it and love your videos!! And your dogs too lol
Nice one lv the goonies key always wanted one when I was younger watching the movie lv a good copper melt 😎👍🤘
My favorite childhood movie! I've always wanted the medal through which he looks at the seashore
I love the green flame you get when you melt copper. It's like some Shang Tsung shit.
Just got back from holiday, nice to see a new video, after a week.
Keep up the good work! 👍 🇦🇺👊🍺
Wow. This is the very first time I ever seen you use 2 Devil Forges at the same time. Way cool😎
I damn near spit good whiskey cross my kitchen when you started the recount! LOL Love your channel.
Call me kooky but just like the partially filled skulls in the past, that first Copper Bones has a twisted look and now is my favorite!! 😆😂🤣
Excellent dual furnace action!!! 🔥🔥🔥
In order of favorites... It's a tough call. Brass tends to be prettier but copper has It's own cool attraction. It looks like copper is harder to get to cooperate sometimes.... 🤩
Nice work there - In my first flat I obeseeivley collected every bottle top.
We got a bit under the influence one night, emptied all the buckets and counted them, 17,000 bottle tops, I looked at my mate and said "Theres a camaro there"
Love the Goonies piece.. very cool
I am also a Goonies fan. Grew up with em. 1972. I would love one of each of those. I have a shelf full of copper n brass myself ive been just hordin.
Round stock. 1" to 5"
Well done sir. That brass almost looks like gold. Great job.
Very nice to see that AU is getting some rain!!!!
Hi. I really like how The Goonies Plaque turned out. Thank you for sharing.
I just grinned for over 17 minutes.
😁.
Cheers 🐕🍻
That green flame 🔥 beautiful
The goonies piece is dope
I loved this video as always! Smart that you keep the pull tabs and still get the money for the cans!!
