      That's what I was coming hear to say. It happens a lot with new metal workers making themselves copper mugs, and they assume it's safe because you see copper mugs in stores all the time. They have to be lined to be safe. It's a real bummer.

    • @robsonez
      @robsonez ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Don't want to rain on your parade either... First off, great public service announcement. But your plumbing is likely full of copper piping and that lining doesn't last forever 👌 Also, just about everything you eat is full of micro plastics! I'd be less worried about trace elements of copper and copper biproducts 😉

      Uh, bronze is copper and tin. It wouldn't look as good as you think. If he used copper, brass and nickel it would. That's called mokume gane, at least the cheaper version of it. The more expensive version would be gold, silver and rose gold.

    • @oxoniumgirl

      this really only applies to acidic foods and/or when using copper cooking vessels. tableware is generally a safe application for copper because the contact time with food is very short compared to vessels and cookware.

    Tip. If you dunk it water while it's still hot, it anneals heaps and you can keep forging without reheat. It can help with the cracking issue if you're getting too hot + work hardening the piece

    I see others have already posted but I'm gonna do it anyway cause I hope Mr Black Beard himself sees at least one of the posts. Copper is not safe for eating with without the proper precautions. Raw copper is dangerous if ingested and it leaches very easily if I'm not mistaken.

      I think that because of work hardening. Hitting it with a hammer causes a lot of internal stress, making it harder to deform and less malleable which makes it prone to cracking.

Отравление солями меди из-за приготовления пищи в плохо лужённой или изношенной медной посуде было распространённой причиной смерти ещё в тридцатые годы ! Например, в справочнике по криминалистике упоминается отравление семьи из четырёх человек солями меди в клюквенном варенье, которое готовилось в медных котлах с частично слезшим покрытием.
