FYI you can do this with 2 car batteries in series, so 24v. my welder is only 18v at 200 amps, 2 car batteries will put out about the same power 👍As for the BB's, i got them from ebay. search "steel shot blasting". Mine were size s460, about 1mm. I also got the Silicon Bronze from ebay, but it can be pretty expensive. Wisconson Wire Works also sells it for around $6.90 a pound. But you can find broken rolls on eBay for really cheap sometimes.
I was using 3/8 carbon gouging rods as electrodes to melt the bb's. Steel or copper would just fuse to the sculpture.
As for the batteries you would wire them on series for 24V. If that's not enough get another one or two. You can get used batteries for cheap at junkyards. Like $30 each. You need heavy duty wire rated for 200 amps. Positive on top or bottom doesnt matter. It won't work as well as the welder because the welder has a high voltage start that helps it start an arc at longer distances.
You would want to stick both ends in the bb's, THEN connect the wire to power.. It would be a bad idea to just connect the wire in your hand directly to the battery terminal, it will spark and vaporize lead with every strike. You would be better off connecting a short length of wire to the battery terminal and using that to complete the circuit. And instead of just touching the two wires togeather you would want to find a way to securely connect them, and remember you are moving a lot of current so the connections need to be robust, the thinnest part will control how much current flows.

Hmmm, would it look more like the real thing if you mix Sand into the BB/copper compound?
Whats the songs name in the vidro
Cool
it is also, ya know, really dangerous.

3:40 got the strong impression of a catbox X'D pulling a metal turd covered in metal litter out of a metal catbox - so metal, maaaan!
I was a seasonal worker for a rubber works factory when I was 19. We mostly used the metal shot in large high pressure hoses. Looked a lot like a fireman's hose on a hydrolic arm. It rips clothes and can pierce skin but it had never hurt me that bad. The helmet it came with had an air flow into the mask but I don't think it had an exhaust so it was suffocating
I only now realized that silver and sliver are different words. I thought that it was silver for both before.
Fun fact: Steel balls are also required for many of the experiments on this channel.

Now when he inevitably become the backyard MAD scientist, we know his only weakness;
mailboxes.
also very easy to get him to touch hot stuff
Until he make something to destroy them
Lmao😂😂

Given the amount of bandages and burns? I don't think he is very safe all the time.
Definitely NOT a rocket scientist !!🤦🏻♂️
Very cool, like always. I always learn something from your videos. Thank you for sharing!
Kind of reminds me of when I watched a guy pour liquid metal into an ant hill
Those ants were probably like
Ooh what a cool looking liqu-SSSSSSSSSSS
🙂 they probably didn’t have much time to think of anything The same guy poured liquid glass down termite holes you could see them in the glass like those paperweights with scorpions and centipedes in them

I used to love doing tinker crates! I would be so excited for it to come in the mail. This just reminded me of my childhood
Found your videos about a year later looking through random videos I always tried to find your channel again now I finally can enjoy watching experiments
“I like having retinas” man this is accurate, you get used to it eventually though
BYS: “Still kinda hot... ooh!” *proceeds to touch and grab metal*
You gotta love when the intro shows someone throwing an object and the object is being zoomed in on and followed by the camera perfectly.
Him: hot, hothothot
Me: yea, that's fire for ya
i like he how he's welding 50 pounds of metal with a $3000 iMac 2 feet away.
goo6 you mean film?
On metal table, nonetheless!
Because only a Florida man would 😎😂
"That's so cool! That's still hot!" Make up your mind ;P
Those beads are for sand blasting I think, we have those at our Job (where we paint big metal items in a giant furnace) and it's how we quickly clean off old paint or smoothes edges! It's lovely to work with an item that has gone through it.
Every video I'm seeming from this channel ranges in how high the natural volume is and I can't even tell if it's mic quality because each have a pretty solid audio quality to the naked ear.
ah yes, the electricity is made out of electricity
3:33 freshly lighted(baked) metal crisps 😃😃
I haven’t even Watch the video yet and I’m already so excited because petrified lightning is just so cool it also burns hotter than the surface of the sun to get well the petrified lightning
I like the mannequin just chilling by the pool with a llama head. I found my spirit animal.
Dado (DAY-doe).
For those playing along at home; its like a wide table saw blade for cutting a wide grove, or dado, into a piece of wood. Comes with several blade sections and shims to get you anywhere from 1/8” to ~1” cut.
Why didn’t I come across this mans sooner? He’s cool, legit, cringey at times, but not too overdone, and is still entertaining. Keep up the good work, bucko.

i sympathize with your arm incident, when i learned how to ride a bike as a kid one of the first things i did was crash face first into my neighbors mailbox. the bike kept going and i did not.
I crashed into a stop sign aka irony
When I was about 12, I hit a mailbox on my bike that was overhanging the sidewalk. The worse part was that it was near the bottom of a huge hill and I was kind of racing with friends so I was going very fast. I got thrown quite a way and ended up with a lot of scapes and a huge knot on my arm that I at first thought was the bone sticking out. It was terrible.
I was so anxious watching this. You should've worn insulating gloves while doing this. I know of a man who died trying to create lightning patterns with high voltage on a table.
Well he made a tiny car bomb and blew up a coco melon toy once and he’s still alive so clearly death is too scared of him lol
Sure. But viewers watching this and trying out the same, may not be so lucky :/
If you havent yet, show this to Destin at smarter everyday. He would love this
Fantastic!
