I am very impressed Please do jewelry making videos when you are ready! Thank You!
Thank you! I definitely will😊✌️
Great stuff and a cliff hanger ... ooo your production value has increased!
whoo hoo, science experiment time!
🤓✌️✌️
Fascinating, my husband was like let me see! Lol. Can't wait to see how much Silver you get from your 25#
Lol thanks for watching my friend!✌️✌️
Now that was interesting. I honestly didn’t think I was going to watch. But, you got me hooked. Loved learn about this. Thanks Dave
You keep me coming back by just being so very interesting!!! love your work Dave, keep the experiments coming cause I love living vicariously through you :D
Absolutely without doubt the most fascinating video you have done since I have been watching you!! Thank you so very much for sharing everything with us! I am so proud of you for all your knowledge! Great work, and I am honored to be your fan!!
Have not tried this method yet.
It will work! Wow! , Are you Eienstein?😀
This is fascinating👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you think so, something I’ve always wanted to try✌️✌️
Very interesting!!!
Silver! Go Dave!
✌️✌️✌️
I learn so much from you. Thank You for all your videos.
Scientist Dave wow
You learn something new every day. Way cool 😎
My son is coming home from college today he’s 20 years old
I want to show him this video.
Awesome! Thanks for watching✌️✌️✌️
..good luck with the silver recovery..new name..''Smelter Dave'' ..lol..
✌️✌️✌️
Nice work Dave I admire your patience, like you say good to have another project to work alongside..🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👍🏻👍🏻
Something I’ve always wanted to try and works out perfectly when you’ve got other stuff to do. Thanks for watching!😊✌️✌️
But when you are washing dishes, you never end up with silverwater🤣🤣👍
Hi Dave very interesting, good show cheers pj.
You could rig up a handheld food mixer with a wire brush tip and buzz the foils off. Nice experiment.
You can by a sack/big bag of the salt that are ment for melting ice and snow, no need for food graded salt ;) much easier with a sack and ofc the melting salt is not iodized.
Really enjoyed this. You can always learn something! Am going to keep watching and am looking forward to part 2.
Truly interesting to watch, but labor intensive for you. Where do you pour that grungy water? Waiting on part 2. Woo hoo ✌️✌️✌️
Thanks for taking the time to include all the details! Supremely interesting Dave!!
That was like watching a science teacher at work, loved it, never did anything as good as that at school, at first i though this is dodgy your going to electrocute yourself, but honest to god the result of the silver button, I'm amazed, best thing I've seen on you tube in a long time, looking forward to part two Dave Thankyou xxx 😀 💰💵, by the way hope you enjoyed the party x
Interesting, had me on the edge of my seat, sounding all mad scientist in a lab. But a good video
Done a few times before, your electrolyte is fine, try to suspend the piece instead of sitting on the bottom, it helps alot for deplating. And you need MAP gas instead of propane. Propane just doesn't get hot enough. But absolutely love your videos. Expanded my knowledge alot, just hoping to help you alitte with this.
This was absolutely fascinating. I learned a lot tonight. Thanks so much for sharing Dave. Love the buttons. Did I say, Wow? 🤭👏😀✌🏼
Happy you found it interesting✌️✌️
Great video as usual! Ever since you mentioned doing this a few weeks back I’ve been watching videos on how this is done. Your video is by far the most interesting one I’ve seen...can’t wait for part 2!
Super interesting! Can't wait for Part 2.
That was so interesting! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Dave, I've been looking forward to this and you haven't disappointed. You should have been an educator.
Very cool, I love how the copper trays look after being stripped. I might just have to try this at home. Lol
I used to own a scuba shop and we did a set up like this to clean artifacts we recovered! A friend of mine is the director of operations for Mel Fisher’s museum and I’ve seen their artifacts being cleaned by methods like this too.
One of your best !!
Thank you!✌️✌️
Super Fun to watch and really interesting! Thanks BBD!!
✌️✌️✌️
That was truly cool too watch. Thank you Dave.
I hope you put that rice back, and didn't just leave it on the floor...LOL
Lol I did I promise
Very fascinating! Thanks for sharing Dave!
Loved this...was trying to imagine how and now I know..and very Kool indeed...like another viewer said you'd make a great science teacher...fun n very interesting video dave..can't wait for part 2..thanks for this Kool subject matter..can't wait to see you doing the jewelry casting...peace out!
Thanks Goodie!!✌️✌️
Fascinating!!
Cool stuff Dave! I may try that myself..Thanks for the tutorial! Always a great vid...
Cool Dave thanks for sharing
Very very interesting, thank you for taking your time out to show us, and you have a very calm and soothing voice, very nice and easy to listen to. I enjoy your channel!
Brilliant Dave thanks 🙏
Oh get the beauty hands gloves come on Dave🤣♥️
Thanks for the share~! Been waiting for this one. Looked up some of the other similar YT videos in advance. Now you have to save metrics on total costs and see where you can save ...like gas for smelting and a 55 gal drum for all that "copper cottage cheese" There's silver in thar! Agree tho, concentrated acid is serious business and this method looks reasonably SAFE. Now I wait for "Part 2"!
Awesome! Now I want to try this. You made science interesting!
wow looks like a lot of work for sure!
Dave, the Mad Scientist making science fun!
Impressive!!! And interesting!
Very cool!
Good information!!!
Thank you!!!
Excited ,!! 😊
Very, very interesting!!
Very, very interesting! TFS
This is awesome!!! Thanks for sharing!!! BTW I still want to be the first to buy one of your pieces of jewelry!!!
Thank you so much for the experiment video. I was watching intently. Really cool how silver comes off black and when it cools after you melt it goes silver. That was fun to watch. Watching from England 🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🍁🍂✨🇬🇧☕️
Fascinating!
Yea, I have been waiting for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought you were going to sell the silver to a smelter. This is much better!
We used to melt down fishing weights we retrieved from a Manasquan and Shark River inlets to make weights for our weight belts. This video brought back a ton of memories! Thanks!
Dave, This was so interesting. The copper items I loved when you removed the silver from them, they would look awesome to resale. Hope you have a great day. Lookin forward to part two. JuJu
BTW my favorite videos are the ones where you interact with the precious metals guys. I'd love to get a whole video featuring Abraham or the other guy (I'm afraid I don't remember his name)
Me too good guys and they’re so knowledgeable and always willing to share information✌️✌️
This was very interesting. Seems pretty time consuming. I hope it pays off for you. Looks like a good winter project.
Time consuming for sure! Have a lot of organizing to do at the shop so it’s been fun trying it out while I’m working
Super interesting!
Verry interesting!thank you!
This is a first for me great video
Really fun video!
Glad you liked it✌️
this is a facinating video
O my goodness thank you so much for sharing
✌️✌️✌️
Used to do this in the 80s. It helps to scratch the surface with course sand paper. Or allows better and quicker removal of silver.
Great video my friend keep up the great work. FYI might consider using a chest mount for ur go pro to have use of both of ur hands
BBD a man of wonder... *** man. I wonder where he learned all this stuff.. LOL
☮✌🏻
DAVE, HOW DO YOU STRAIN YOUR SILVER FLAKES FROM THE WATER? Maybe I missed it, you showed the flakes coming off the dish in the water, then they were all in the ziploc bags. Fascinating video, sharing this one!
I'd like to see how that's done too...
I’ll show it in Part 2, thanks so much for watching!✌️✌️
@@bluebusdave2529 absolutely brilliant... first night i found you i ended up doing a 3 and half hour marathon of back catalogue vids
@@bluebusdave2529 also the bluest part of the flame is the hottest... so get the blue inner flame point as close as possible
Surprisingly very interesting. Do you have to get the tarnish off the silver plate first? Your plate looks very clean. How do you get the tarnish off?
good video bud, i subscribed
Definitely interesting
I know that this is an old vid ,but maybe you will get a notification . Try taking your clamp off the positive and use a plastic clamp to hold the wire (cable) to the plate . I will keep thinking and come up with something without a steel spring . Good Video
I think I'd be sticking with the smelter place 😂
Me too!
Nice job✌✌✌✌
✌️✌️✌️
Anyone here remember "Mr. Wizard" on TV?
MR. WIZARD LIVES! 😉

Absolutely fascinating! Please show how to get the silver out of the water bath. Also, explain the role of borax in the flux. How you get the flakes to melt down.
Yes! I've been looking forward to this one! I don't know anything about this, so forgive the dumb question, but why use another piece of plate on the positive side. Seems like it would contaminate the final product. What would happen if you used a sterling tray?
Can you hook up the stainless steel one on the left side and one one the right side you can just switch the silver from tub to tub? I think you have to switch chargers too.
how did you manage to get all the silver plates etc..just subscribed. keep up the good work.tjsnks from ireland
Very interesting to see the process. Is labor intensive!
Fascinating experiment:) I have to admit, I jus led a couple times ;) lol...and I hope you’re using you zoom, and not getting close to the flame..next thing we see would be your camera melting ;)...Great video!! Thank you for sharing !!
Is that coppery salt water safe to put down the drains after use? What do you do with cheesy coppery stuff? Extremely fascinating. Look forward to your jewelry making in the winter.
O.o Definitely costs less this way then it does with chemicals! With chemicals you dissolve all of the metal which to me seemed dumb... If silver plated why did they want to dissolve the copper. (Was my curious mind, wondering)
So you could probably do this on a smaller scale with gold filled items?
as soon as you put the rice on the floor i instantly came to the comments to see who would say somthing

Mix lead in, it’ll oxidize the base metals in the silver and leave you a button without the base metals
Will this excessively pit the base metal if I wanted to use this method to remove old plating in order to prep for replating?
Great video but I do have a caution for all who may try this...
Make sure you are working in a well ventilated area, running electrolysy in salt water generates Chlorine gas which is toxic in high concentrations. This is exactly how salt systems in swimming pools work.
With all the time this took and the money you spent on the silver plate, it's probably a lot cheaper to just buy silver. Time is money. Very cool to see this though.
Or just melt it off with the torch, if that's what I heard you say...
@@budalexander6002 Totally agree.
You hit the nail on the head Bud Alexander 😊✌️
Silver just isn't cost effective to refine alone unless you're dealing with very large amounts, or a bulk wastes from gold refines. However if one were to simply use a torch for removal of the silver from the base, I'm not sure how you would prevent further fusing to the base metal.
Question... the solution with the copper in it. Can you take it and salvage the copper in it? And if so, can you recommend the easiest way to do so?
Common Stainless Steel is "austenitic" with higher chromium and nickel content. The nickel makes it non-magnetic.
Basic Stainless Steel is "ferretic" so magnetic. It has a high concentration of iron (ferrum).
what do you use the borax for in the process. How do you know what the silver is worth?
Cover me , I'm going in ....lol. Gonna try a silverware set from a garage sale for $2.00... it weighs 9 lbs !
Love what you are doing but for the god's sake....BUY A TRIPOD FOR THE CAMERA and use both hands!!!
I wish he would also Mari, I almost had a mild heart attack watching. I don;t think I can sit thru Part 2. It is so interesting and I am fascinated by his knowledge and using laymen s terms . Just be careful.
You should treat your sediment with sodium hydroxide to convert the silver chloride to silver oxide, then add sugar to reduce it to silver metal. Yes, you are leaving a lot of silver on the metal which is quite a waste considering how much effort you have put into it.
You was definitely a Pilot on a Airline who hat to talk a lot on the intercom.
