I've been doing some using an old chisel on the Aluminium and cuts through easy and you don't damage the Copper and is fast to do. Love your videos, keep it up.
I do them with a hacksaw - the aluminium is really soft. Get almost all the way through to the copper then hit with a hammer and the aluminium shears, allowing the copper slug to drop out.
Ahh man I'd love to collect those copper slugs like that just on the side for crafting. I'm always looking for brass and copper from pipe fittings and such for knives and tool handles and such. I've never seen heat sinks like those. I've been grabbing aluminum heat sinks for segmenting projects and always use power cords for lights and such. I used to make a killing recycling, and I will again. Right now is a good time to just collect and wait.
You could make yourself a setup from a simple Hydraulic car jack (the ones that usually come with the vehicle called bottle jacks), and some square metal tubing. You would be able to push those copper stackers out fast and easy once you have built yourself a nice little rig. Thanks for the video. Very interesting and informative. Thumbs up.
Hi Ben hope this message finds you doing great. I really like the copper heat sinks,enough stacked up can bring in some more cash. I use and give away the older aluminum heat dissipaters and use them as mail holders. to get the copper slug out of the aluminum,. I put it in a vise, use a hammer and a small iron chisel to punch it out.
Hi Ben, try to apply pressure on the copper rounds using your vice and a thicker rod but a short one. You position your heat sink in the middile bettween the thick rod and a hollow piece of metal or one of those heat sinks you already cut. this will keep the copper stackers intact and more attractive to stack.
i had the same idea adam did, it seems a lot cheaper to just use the vice to pop them out rather than buying a press to pop out 30 dollars worth of copper :P
I'm not a scientist, so there are probably massive holes in my reasoning, but if heat causes expansion, could cooling the heatsinks cause the copper to shrink, so you can tap out the copper more easliy? I know that if the copper shrank, the aluminium would too, but it's possible the copper would shrink more than the aluminium.
That is likely how these are even manufactured. But honestly using heat and cooling costs a lot when you get this much profit only. And copper takes heat like a mofo, it has a pretty great heat capacity The easiest way would be just hitting it between the fins with a large hammer and chisel
@eWaste Ben Open the fins on one side and heat the aluminum (with a propane or MAP gas torch) at that point to make it expand, and the copper should just drop out. Might have to persuade it with a light tap.
Being aluminium it's pretty soft, which means it's pretty easy to cut. So why not take a few strokes with a hacksaw or one of the many finer bladed saws and remove as little material as possible?
I got something that you can try and you won't lose any of the aluminum to the cutting or the copper and they should be nice and clean. Take a wide faced cutting chisels and stick it into a press and use it to cut the aluminum apart. You could use an air hammer with a cutter. Could also use the vice with a very short cutting chisel. This method is what I use and it is also a bit less messy.
The gobblet stacker are useful for motorcycle nipple repair. fill and heat solder then dip cable end into it you then have a perfectly soldered cable end. I use these all the time making custom cables. You could sell them as well for 5 bucks each ish depending on demand.
or you can hit it with a sledgehammer or heat it up, since Aluminum expands and contracts more than copper does. Put it the the vice, hit it with a torch and then knock that copper peice right out of it :)
Nice videos, man. You have shown me a lot better places to find aluminum other than soda cans (kind of dirty). I go a different direction with my scrapping: I take the materials and actually melt them down to use for hobby casting projects. Right now I collect Lead, Aluminum, Brass, and Copper... all of which I can melt down :) Thanks again for all the great videos!
put it in the freezer or on the stove too, I can't remember what worked better but if you can use the way metal expands and contracts with hot and cold there is an easy way to get the copper out just think about how they make those rings with one inside of the other that spins
What do you do? how do you get your hands on all these materials? I saw the video of you getting copper from televisions and I watched the video of you first casting. I'm running out of materials to put in my foundry haha.
I advertise as an e-waste recycler, but tv's are easily found by the side of roads, microwave ovens are good for copper, refrigerator compressors are good but hard work.
Even without an electric cutter this can be done with an ordinary hacksaw at about one minute or less per piece. Yes, the press fit is very tight. Machine shops use hydraulic presses or arbor presses for that sort of work.
That's a pretty neat angle grinder thing. What kind of blade is that? The teeth look pretty big on that blade (almost like a fine tooth wood blade) I was impressed how well it cut without grabbing and jerking the saw. Probably works better than a normal metal blade because they tend to fill up with aluminum dust when cutting. Do you know if I can get those blades here in US and if they'll fit our US angle grinders? Thanks and good scrapping video as always
Try this: Instead of cutting with the grinder, position the heat sink flat over an opening the diameter of the copper plug. Then take a solid steel rod that is the same diameter, or a hair less than the copper plug, and give it one hard whack with a five pound sledge. That plug will probably pop right out. This would be far faster. The hydraulic press idea, below, is a good idea as well.
In regards to cutting the aluminum from the copper central part. Angle grinder mentioned alot. You do not need anything quite so elaborate, just use a hacksaw. Aluminum is soft and very easy to cut through.
alternitive uses for the alloy blocks , use the alloy blocks as heat sinks for 1' water pipe to help cool liquids running through the steel or copper pipes , thermal cooling ect
All you need is a large socket (as is used for capscrews "bolts" ). Place a socket slightly larger than the copper on one side and a drift (punch, bar) or bushing on the other and put in a vise and turn the vise and press it out.
With such a small amount of aluminum to cut through, you could just use a hack saw. That way you wouldn't cut through to the copper. You could also rig up a car jack as a press to push the copper out.
Use a cylinder/'punch" on one end, and a piece with a hole on the other end. Make sure they fit they're at most a little smaller than the copper's diameter, and at least a little longer than the copper's length, too. Place in vise and tighter to extract the copper. A lot less of a mess, and not too much more elbow grease.
WOW how long did it take you to get all those copper goblets? That is very cool. People just throw them in their garbage,they should be ashamed of themselves.
Nice Copper Bullions I stack those too with my copper pennies. I use a hand saw for cutting the alum and metal but you just gave me a better way to cut with one of those metal cutting disc on a grinder that was very fast cutting.. have you tryed cutting the copper from transformers with that disc? thanks for the video. regards
Once i've cut trrough the first heat sink,i would sandwich the next one between a smaller diameter copper and the aluminium casing in the vice and insert the lot in the vice.The vice should work like a hand acting on a syringe.No guarantee it would work though but considering the number of heat sinks,I would give it a thought though.Nice video.
Probably you don't need to use a grinder. Just put a Large screw inside the hole and a cup in the other side (or two parallel bars against alluminium piece (not the copper piece). Then put the goup of pieces in the "press"(is the name?) and turn the lever few times. Then the press by (the screw) will push out the copper thru the alluminium. (Sorry for my bad english).
Also I would try and see if you could find someone that will buy the copper slugs and the copper shots (shot glass) for turning and carving them into objects to sell. Could get double or triple the scrap value for each and the buyer can get them cheaper than buying new or forming their own stock.
He literally explained it in the video he said HE calls it candy copper but said it goes by #1 or #2 depending yard etc . use your brain like I feel like people try so hard to no understand people because of cultural differences and languages etc . ive never heard of it either but i instantly understood what he meant
What do you to with crt monitors there in Australia? You get in just as much electronic scrap as I do. Separation of the components is key to making the most money. Nice job. Great Videos.
I do like the copper but we don't have a way to dispose of the remains accept for paying to take them to the dump in our area. The reward of the copper isn't worth the cost of the disposal. I hope in time we get bins at our transfer station like you have there. Take Care.
where do you find your heat sinks... i need copper lots of copper but have to get it in small amounts for now... i also need large amounts of aluminum... prefered if they aren't mixed but i could separate it myself.
Why do that when you can use your vice as a press? If you already have a press, better yet, but if you don't and you have a bottle jack you have a press...
Why the heck would you do that? Do you know how hard it is to get old heatsinks here for nothing? I would use them soooo much on the DIY players! (AUX to 2x40W speakers)
Heat it with a torch. The Al and Cu expand at different rates. The Cu will tap right out. Your way is quicker though, and you end up with a nice pile of Al for making thermite.
can you not just punch them right out using the vise to lay them on top and use a socket that is slightly smaller in diameter as a punch? with a good whack it should pop right through.
You dont have to cut them you can get that copper by heating the heatsink on a gas very easily You must have to try my idea Because in this process the copper and heatsink wont be damaged
why dont you press out copper center with a hardened steel punch&die use solid round soock that is a 1/16" smaller then the copper center and a impact deep weel socket or use a ball joint removel kit with comes with press & dies $20.00 on sale at harbor freighr # that's what i would do no loss of material from 1/4" twin blade on that cut all saw/grinder , thats my 2 cents
when U want to have a piece of copper from these heat sinks WITHOUT having a cut AND without hammering on thop of then, just heat the entire heatsink up and after reaching 250°C (dunno exactly at which temp the copper falls out. Thats exactly the way (vice versa) how the manufacturer produces them. It might not be a bargain in terms of scrapping value but U can use the whole diameter when U want to cut something from this on a lathe machine. taking out the goblit ones 'U can use these as an egg-cup :D
I've been doing some using an old chisel on the Aluminium and cuts through easy and you don't damage the Copper and is fast to do. Love your videos, keep it up.

"I call them stackers because you can stack them"... mind. blown.
Took me months to come up with it, awesome hey?
You might be awarded with a price of originality, if it was up to me. :D
ya, objectively speaking m8. awesome.
lol

Invest in a small hydraulic press. They don't cost much and the copper should press out easy.
welcome to the hydraulic press channel *que music*
Small arbor presses start at $300.00, It would take him 10 years to recoup the cost of that investment, it isn't worth it.
John Cabot www.autotoolworld.com/Black-Bull-PRESSA6T-6-Ton-A-Frame-Shop-Press_p_200642.html
And very useful for other things in the shop.
I was going to say I just use a super cheap one ton arbor press for like $60US from Harbor freight and it works quickly for things like this.

I like your vise! Looks like that sucker has seen a lot of use! NICE!
Yeah I got it from a motor cycle workshop that closed down 20 years ago
I really enjoy your videos! Thanks!
Can't you just freeze them? Like when you set a bearing.
Aluminum has a greater thermal expansion (and contraction) than copper, so freezing it would make it harder to take the copper out.
Hi Ben hope this message finds you doing great. I really like the copper heat sinks,enough stacked up can bring in some more cash. I use and give away the older aluminum heat dissipaters and use them as mail holders. to get the copper slug out of the aluminum,.

I have a press and it pops those things out like nothing. get a press, worth their weight in gold!
i had the same idea adam did, it seems a lot cheaper to just use the vice to pop them out rather than buying a press to pop out 30 dollars worth of copper :P

I know that if the copper shrank, the aluminium would too, but it's possible the copper would shrink more than the aluminium.
Now that's using your noggin.
still a heat sink and aluminum would shrink more than the copper
That is likely how these are even manufactured. But honestly using heat and cooling costs a lot when you get this much profit only. And copper takes heat like a mofo, it has a pretty great heat capacity
The easiest way would be just hitting it between the fins with a large hammer and chisel
Aluminium expands and retracts more than copper so doing the opposite would be the way to go. Heat it up enough and the slug should come loose.
Just make sure the copper doesen't reach 600 degrees celcius.. Otherwise other problems starts to form xD
@eWaste Ben Open the fins on one side and heat the aluminum (with a propane or MAP gas torch) at that point to make it expand, and the copper should just drop out. Might have to persuade it with a light tap.
Being aluminium it's pretty soft, which means it's pretty easy to cut. So why not take a few strokes with a hacksaw or one of the many finer bladed saws and remove as little material as possible?
The copper slugs can be turned on a lathe for making many machine parts.
Do you have access to a small hydraulic press? It might work better with no loss of material.
its awesome to see an australian youtuber. i am australian swell just started scrapping copper becouse of you :D
So how much did you make off that pile of copper and other metals? was it worth your time?
I got something that you can try and you won't lose any of the aluminum to the cutting or the copper and they should be nice and clean. Take a wide faced cutting chisels and stick it into a press and use it to cut the aluminum apart. You could use an air hammer with a cutter. Could also use the vice with a very short cutting chisel.

Nice tutorial Ben!
id try to devise a way to punch it out with the vice itself. im sure you can get enough pressure with it.
I was thinking the same thing.
or you can hit it with a sledgehammer or heat it up, since Aluminum expands and contracts more than copper does. Put it the the vice, hit it with a torch and then knock that copper peice right out of it :)
Drinking game: Drink a shot everytime he say "copper" ;) I just started collecting copper from wires and your videos are really helpful. :)
drinking game, count how many times he says aluminium then realize he puts aluminum in the description
Pinta Dubbs
32 drinks
Nice videos, man. You have shown me a lot better places to find aluminum other than soda cans (kind of dirty). I go a different direction with my scrapping: I take the materials and actually melt them down to use for hobby casting projects. Right now I collect Lead, Aluminum, Brass, and Copper... all of which I can melt down :) Thanks again for all the great videos!
I've got a couple of these and wasn't sure just what to do with 'em. Thank you.
put it in the freezer or on the stove too, I can't remember what worked better but if you can use the way metal expands and contracts with hot and cold there is an easy way to get the copper out just think about how they make those rings with one inside of the other that spins

Do you know if I can get those blades here in US and if they'll fit our US angle grinders? Thanks and good scrapping video as always
+zackcat276 it's a twin blade and i think they spin in opposite directions, they sell these cutters in hardware stores for pretty cheap.
Try this: Instead of cutting with the grinder, position the heat sink flat over an opening the diameter of the copper plug. Then take a solid steel rod that is the same diameter, or a hair less than the copper plug, and give it one hard whack with a five pound sledge. That plug will probably pop right out. This would be far faster.
The hydraulic press idea, below, is a good idea as well.
I've never seen them befor. I've been messing with CPU parts for years and never seen this in them. Interesting
They are only used with intel cpus that have a tdp over 95 watts
Have you considered an arbor press? It would be far less messy and quick.

An impact socket and a section of lumbar with a hole in it and you should be able to use that vise to press them out.
It looks like you have a mini arc furnace behind the vise. If so, do you use that to melt down your copper into ingots or bars?
no it's not a furnace but i'm working on a melting system at the moment to make ingots
With such a small amount of aluminum to cut through, you could just use a hack saw. That way you wouldn't cut through to the copper. You could also rig up a car jack as a press to push the copper out.
So what is the total value of the materials her recovered here? Is it worth the effort?
I guess a cheap shop press or maybe a little propane torch an a brass drift are too must trouble?
I was wondering if that ingot was solid copper. I just received 2 of them. Thank you!
yes solid
Even better the second time, thanks Ben
Some heatsinks have copper plates attached to the bottoms. They are easier to remove.
sure ok but why do you call them stackers? it's not really clear why you call them stackers
lol
People that keep metals like gold, silver and even copper are called stackers, so it just comes from that, it's copper, it stacks, copper stacker.
lol im sure he was joking, you did explaing about the stackers (mabye too much)
I was just joking mate :)
great video mate, might want to skip that last cup of coffee before the next one :)
Couldn't the cooper be pressed out like bearings are pressed out of a bearing housing?
Use a cylinder/'punch" on one end, and a piece with a hole on the other end. Make sure they fit they're at most a little smaller than the copper's diameter, and at least a little longer than the copper's length, too. Place in vise and tighter to extract the copper.

+Luis Rodriguez Thanks, I never though of using the cutter on transformers, i'll try it on them microwave transformers.
why dont you put like a short rod on the vice and make it coincide with the copper part of the heatsink then just press and it pops out?
Have you considered a thinner cutting wheel or cutting disk?
A good arbor press could possibly speed things up.
Skwisgar2322 He's got the steel bar and his vice jaws are tapped. he could just use his vice as an arbor press.
it's got a round blade😆😆😆 I'd love to see him using a square one that'd be fun.
Lmfao that would really be neat huh a square one..
Once i've cut trrough the first heat sink,i would sandwich the next one between a smaller diameter copper and the aluminium casing in the vice and insert the lot in the vice.The vice should work like a hand acting on a syringe.No guarantee it would work though but considering the number of heat sinks,I would give it a thought though.Nice video.
You can put a cloth between the stacker and the rod so that you don't chip the copper or anything.
That's what she said?
What blade are you using on that Angle Grinder? Need to get me one of them.
Hello! I can find out which computer model the radiator has copper cups? I did not see any of them. Thanks.
i dont know why but this pile of heatsinks is sexy
you're weird man hahaha
yeah.. you're right
don't stress, i'm prob just as weird
Matthew Tones ok.. i wont stress then
i was joking, stress the fuck out man
Probably you don't need to use a grinder. Just put a Large screw inside the hole and a cup in the other side (or two parallel bars against alluminium piece (not the copper piece). Then put the goup of pieces in the "press"(is the name?) and turn the lever few times. Then the press by (the screw) will push out the copper thru the alluminium. (Sorry for my bad english).
That just takes more time and effort
What PCs did the heatsinks w/ the radial fins w/ bifurcated ends come from? I could use some of those for a project of my own...
don't remember, I do a lot of pc's
These'd make great shot glasses.
Call me daft, but Im pretty sure that you can sell those complete for much more than their scrap value.
Hi Daft, my name is Tiberian
those were for outdated CPUs.
It hardly matters. high quality heat sinks are a commodity for any high power electronics project.
they arent high quality. those are oem intel heatsinks. they cost about 10 bucks new with the fan and mounts on them.
they are shit....
Also I would try and see if you could find someone that will buy the copper slugs and the copper shots (shot glass) for turning and carving them into objects to sell. Could get double or triple the scrap value for each and the buyer can get them cheaper than buying new or forming their own stock.
An engineer would use a press to push out those copper parts. You could make a hydraulic press for less than £30.
yes, if I was an engineer, but i'm just a scrapper and love it.
you should use your bench vise and a piece of Steel Rod and then on the other side use a big ring cylinder and press it out with the bench vise
If you heat it up the aluminum ring might come loose and then you can hammer the copper out.
What is candy copper? I've never heard of it and a quick Google left me none the wiser.
I think in the uk it's bright copper. means just copper, brazing copper would be copper with soldered joints or brass fitting still on.
Thank you for that explanation.
He literally explained it in the video he said HE calls it candy copper but said it goes by #1 or #2 depending yard etc . use your brain like I feel like people try so hard to no understand people because of cultural differences and languages etc . ive never heard of it either but i instantly understood what he meant
What do you to with crt monitors there in Australia? You get in just as much electronic scrap as I do. Separation of the components is key to making the most money. Nice job. Great Videos.
crt monitors have dried up down here, I miss the copper but my back says it's a good thing.
I do like the copper but we don't have a way to dispose of the remains accept for paying to take them to the dump in our area. The reward of the copper isn't worth the cost of the disposal. I hope in time we get bins at our transfer station like you have there. Take Care.
None of my heatsinks have that copper center piece.
where do you find your heat sinks... i need copper lots of copper but have to get it in small amounts for now... i also need large amounts of aluminum... prefered if they aren't mixed but i could separate it myself.
mostly old tv's for copper & ally, microwaves for copper from the transformer
hell i would unwind the windings from the transformers and use them too
as a guesstimation, youve got about 50 copper slugs and ali radiators, approximately how much would that lot sell for?
maybe $30 there
Use two sockets. One sized for just outside copper and hit it inside the socket and then flip to empty copper out.
Where do ya find these? Seems like a right smart idea to save on copper plus think of the possibilities, eh?
common in pc's like acers
Jeh mang but do you go to the dump or like small business computer shops or something?
i just didn't get it. Could you tell me again why you call them stackers, please?
Why do that when you can use your vice as a press? If you already have a press, better yet, but if you don't and you have a bottle jack you have a press...
Isn't it easier just to use a handsaw with a metal cutting blade? You don't waste as much material and you're more precise
I have come across between 75 to 100 heatsink and only 1 had a copper center. Wish me luck, hopefully my odds turn around!
Why the heck would you do that? Do you know how hard it is to get old heatsinks here for nothing? I would use them soooo much on the DIY players! (AUX to 2x40W speakers)
Found what i was looking for 👍🏻
Great way to maximize profit. Had you ever thought of using your air hammer to knock out the plugs that way?
Heat it with a torch. The Al and Cu expand at different rates. The Cu will tap right out. Your way is quicker though, and you end up with a nice pile of Al for making thermite.
can you not just punch them right out using the vise to lay them on top and use a socket that is slightly smaller in diameter as a punch? with a good whack it should pop right through.
You dont have to cut them you can get that copper by heating the heatsink on a gas very easily
You must have to try my idea
Because in this process the copper and heatsink wont be damaged
You need an arbor press my friend.
why dont you press out copper center with a hardened steel punch&die use solid round soock that is a 1/16" smaller then the copper center and a impact deep weel socket or use a ball joint removel kit with comes with press & dies $20.00 on sale at harbor freighr # that's what i would do no loss of material from 1/4" twin blade on that cut all saw/grinder , thats my 2 cents
yes but what is 'kopa'?
Y not sell them on eBay ..they look like they would make good heat sinks for cob style LED lights
I don't get it... Why don't you just molt the stuff and poor out the aluminion molten first and you heat more when aluminion is done out?
Are the copper cups considered bare bright or number two copper
#1 copper or candy copper, bare bright is just wire
save the grey cooling paste, contains silver
when U want to have a piece of copper from these heat sinks WITHOUT having a cut AND without hammering on thop of then, just heat the entire heatsink up and after reaching 250°C (dunno exactly at which temp the copper falls out.
Thats exactly the way (vice versa) how the manufacturer produces them.
It might not be a bargain in terms of scrapping value but U can use the whole diameter when U want to cut something from this on a lathe machine. taking out the goblit ones 'U can use these as an egg-cup :D
hey ben how much can i pay you for 20 of thoes heatsinks with copper "stackers" in them. I dont need the big ones just medium sized
How much would all this shown be worth?
Nice job
Ben I re-watched your video about your copper stackers do you ever find any of that anymore I don't see much of it on your videos
Yep, 1 in 5 pc's I scrap have a copper stacker heat sink
you don't even need a hydraulic press to get it out, get yourself an arbor press you can easily get 3+ tons of pressure from that to push them out
Should try stacking identical pieces and cut maybe two or three at a time, save time and make time!!
How cute! I want a goblet stacker! :)
What did you call them and why?
Why not just make the most basic little press jig and use your vice to press them out?
what brand CPU lives under those "goblet" ones I recon they could make some cool novelty shotglasses
Usually amd
cheers
