Hello again. I mentioned I was an electrician. I recently made a career change by taking a job rebuilding a big microwave oven (100KW) for a ceramics co. The oven was made by Raytheon and was a complete basket case needing a complete rebuild. I didn't think I could actually do the job but took it on anyway. I did it and it is working very well and now I am what I call an industrial handyman for that company, hence my new interest in machining.
mostly hobby as we have a big lathe (14 x 60) at work and also a bridgeport mill. I bought the same mill drill machine you have for my home shop. Its will soon be CNC. After 30yrs of doing electrical construction and service I was bored but thanks to that microwave I'm no longer bored. Lifes more fun when you like what you do.
Did that plasma burn the beryllium oxide of the the 2nd magnetron because you could have actually filled the place with toxic fumes and not have know. Some times beryllium disease symptoms take years to develop
Yextus Interesting point you've brought up there, I understand the dangers of beryllium poisoning, as I've turned a little beryllium copper bar on the lathe for a explosion proof hammer for my pyrotechnic experiments, so... No more of that sort of thing ! Regards Chris :)
that takes years of working with beryllium copper mostly from grinding it to get sick from it. trust me us machinist know all about it u cant get it from a couple of exposures
Hi unfortunately that was a long long time ago , I can’t really remember what I did , I’d say I took the first one apart intact ie I just kept all the bits wired and removed them as one unit drilled a hole in the top of the second microwave for the magnetron to poke through and controlled the the unit separately via a switch ( plug socket) great fun !
@Battery-cat I just want to know did you recorded the maximum temperature it reach when you turn on both megnatron and is there and burning mark in the oven inner cavity
@@ashutoshgurung4892 Sorry no way of know the heat , I was igniting titanium metal chips what ever they burn at , no noticeable burn marks the glass plate broke with the heat
Explain to me the relationship between fire and electricity I know more than I should about science at my age and I don't get the relationship plasma is coming from the fire at some points which is why I ask and I've done my own share of experimentation
Ju Rehman do you really think that he had no safety gear! Microwaves don't cause cancer! Its a hoax that evetyone tels you but its nottrue at all. Microwave radiation has less energy than visible light noob!
Ju Rehman im not saying its perfectly safe but dont beleive everything you hear on the internet! Im kid and yet I know how a magnetron works and whats true and whats not!
+TheDct88 Most Christians think that is the number of the beast that will reign over the earth before the return of Jesus Christ. I think it's simply a way to represent 0123+456+78+9 = 666. And apropos of a great time to which set the microwave as a countdown to destruction!
Children should not play with fire! You are going to get hurt badly! Do you know what an RF burn is? Do you know the maximum exposure limit of RF at the operating frequency? I'll tell you what is used to be. 2mW/cm squared measured at the door of the oven. (Leakage)
3melendr You lamo the "RF" radiation isn't intese enogh when your all the way across the room!!!!Also he isn't a kid so he can f with this stuff if he wants so why do you care

that's a great story Tony ! fair play to you, so.... what's the lathe for? hobby/ work

The amount of radiation you were exposed to.... I really hope you are okay/ feel better.
that's an angry machine you have built
Have you got any super-powers now?
yes I can glow in the dark and warm up noodles
Yep, the radiation definitely got to you! lol I was surprised the glass tray broke.
im feeling better now
Very interesting
It was good fun , a few years ago.now lol
take off the door and bask in the power
the smoke from the burning metal is probably dangerous, especially with the fan exhausting it to the room.

thanks jeff, good to know :)
what do you make/ machine jeff ? just interested in what people get up too
Hii
I am a engineering student and I am working on same project please reply I want to ask some questions I am facing some problem

The sound of reaction of microwave with the chemical is music for my ears
Love the floating plasma!
How is your health? Did you develop any disease ? Cancer or Chronic Beryllium Disease (CBD) disease?
+Turbinex Rodrigues yes it's bad I'm typing from the grave☠
kkk
You´re better then. Microwaves cannot reach the grave. kkk
you can't get cancer from a microwave
$5 says I can.
Crazy but I love it.
"6:66" ??? did you hacked the timer ?
call FBI
muahaha cook my good twice as fast with dual magnetrons!

its dangerous to play with these items, it can have risks, no safety gears.
Ju Rehman do you really think that he had no safety gear! Microwaves don't cause cancer! Its a hoax that evetyone tels you but its nottrue at all. Microwave radiation has less energy than visible light noob!
All right now dont make asumptions about things you no nothing about!
Ju Rehman im not saying its perfectly safe but dont beleive everything you hear on the internet! Im kid and yet I know how a magnetron works and whats true and whats not!
Oh man, did I laugh !
While i don't see how this is real, it's not a very smart idea, if you really knew how they worked you would not do such a thing.
You are cool!
thanks commander your cool to :)
skyrocketpuke ahah thanks! ;)
Good
Sprinkles!!!!!!
33 dislikes ? wtf
no accident (explosion in youtube) and trying to be funny
TM80 NotGoodWithNames well I do try lol
4:28 666?
