Turn Scrap COPPER Pipes Into Custom Golden Coins At Home - Custom Coins Made Easy

  • In this video I'll be making my own custom copper coins from scrap copper pipes. The coins were cast in graphite molds that I made. The copper pipes were melted down in my furnace until they were liquid metal and simply poured into the open molds. I used a wire brush to clean up some of them and a tumbler to clean the rest.

    Hey everyone! Happy Thursday and I hope you all enjoy this weeks video! The Monkey Island mold is now available on my website (link in the description) These sell out really fast but don’t worry as more are constantly being made daily. Enjoy! 👍🏻

    I was just about to suggest using a tumbler when you brought one out. The coins definitely look better from the tumbler and they would look even better if you used a smaller medium and left the coins in longer. But you wouldn’t want to leave them in too long as the medium could polish away all the fine details, it’s something you might have to experiment with but nice job anyway 👍

    You can make things easier and reduce losses to oxidation by melting long, uncut, pieces of copper and feeding them into the puddle. Yeah, its blinding but it also gives you the chance to stir the puddle while you're filling the crucible.

  • @molsenice

    Here is a hint for the tumbler. add a splash of vinegar and a dash of citric powder used for canning to the water , Dawn and stainless pins - you think your results are good, wait till you see what the vinegar and citric do.

    Very nice with the tumbler. Do you think a second round with nut shells would make the coins even more shiny? Also if you want a hammer that would make very short work of the pipes, my loyal 64oz steel face dead blow would love to make art after 22yrs of beating on rusted suspension. Just tell me how to send it.

    I think BigstackD needs to get a bigger tumbler and polish up all the coins he has so far, they look much better tumbled. Just a tip for the tumbler try getting small stainless steel bearings, that's what they use in casino's to clean up the change and it works great.
