As an actual professional smith I can't resist making two comments: First the number and variety of techniques you used effectively are impressive. The other side of the coin: you killed a huge amount of time by not using heat....until you did. Fun video!! Definitely a great teaching exercise I'm gonna throw at students! Just for those who want to try without smelting a combination of heating and LIGHT hammering may work, I havent forged aluminum, because it is best worked in other ways. However, most metals will bond to themselves and some others with a mixture of heat and pressure. Mokume Gane in various grades of aluminum might be done this way and look incredible if etched well.
you should have bought a four inch length of three inch round solid aluminium and swapped it halfway through, then put it in a cnc mill and pushed the start button
I wadded up a roll of foil to stop static in my dryer (didn’t work) but it did produce a fairly round, very dense ball of aluminum after many usages in the dryer. I had no idea this was a you tube challenge! I have two, smooth, polished aluminum balls with the dryer and many loads of clothes having done all the work.
@@evilparadigm Let's try out your theory: "Honey! Have you seen the ROLL? I just bought a brand new one this morning." "What "roll" are you referring to?" "Hell I don't know. Your dumbass corrected me so you figure it out". (Somehow that seems to lead to misunderstanding and tension in the family. Gonna leave it the way I have it. There were less arguments back then.)
Craig Taylor why a dildo that would hurt more of a anal plug they seem to usually be some sort of metal anyways but besides that I don’t think it’s very healthy
Chris Challans - you don’t use foil when roasting. Roasting is basically cooking at higher heat uncovered at 400 degrees or so... makes it nice and brown and crisp...Baking you would cover and use 325 to 375 degrees.
Fascinating and beautiful please dont squash it,let you dear gorgeous doggy play with it.i had to watch till the end it was an amazing transformation!!

I like how he said everyone else wasn't "doing it right" fails at what he tried, and then cheated. Every single channel on TH-cam that polished an aluminum foil ball, did it right and did it better.
