Hey everyone 👋🏻I hope u are all well and that u enjoy this weeks video. This one is a little longer as I just had so much footage and wanted to show it all! Also I would love to hear any of your feedback in the comments below👇 on what part of my videos you enjoy the most? Melting,scrapping,dog content or anything else you enjoy .Any feedback for future videos is greatly appreciated 🙌 Stay well and see you all next week!
POG MOMENT? Oh! QUICK TIPPPPP. You do NOT need graphite for a steel mold. You only need a handle for the mold and some ice water! I tested it out with my Uncle and Cousin. I'M ALSO GOING TO MY UNCLES AGAIN ON SATURDAY. *edit* I forgot the steps, too. 1st, pour the metal. 2nd, wait about 30 seconds for the bar to cool down a bit and tap the mold on the ground. That will determine if the bar is solid or still liquid. And 3rd, dip the mold in the ice water. The bar will very slightly shrink, making the bar pop out!
@@yannmauperin7110 I misread, thought op said "the snorting", I'm like "never seen him with snow, pretty sure 'snorting' is for the bubs.."😆😆. I found big stack looking for more people teaching metallurgy, but this is it's own thing. My whole household will sit and Zen to these, dogs n cat too, tho that's likely just the company, I like to think seeing his dogs puts stars in their eyes
I agree. The whole thing is great. It's also really cool how you make sure and get it all like when you melt the slag and dust. It's also cool how you give leftovers to scrapper friends. Hell, I save every but, bolt, clip and screw from things I dismantle and either organize for my hardware drawers or give them to my pals. It's nice to see you doing that kind of stuff as well.
My teenage son and I have been watching your TH-cam vids for around a year now and like everything about them. We've built our own forge and have been melting and casting, partly using tips and techniques from you... so thanks! Since you were asking about our favorite parts I have to say I really appreciate the amount of time you spend editing and keeping things flowing. Those who don't actually do this on the side might not realize how much time is spent on a typical melt. Plus, getting the material, processing it to prepare for melting, etc. Lots of vids show WAY too much of it to extend the length. Yours are all good content plus we like the personal touches that allude to a dude in his garage, enjoying his hobby which is exactly what we are doing. As my son gets older he may not always want to hang with Dad so this is important time and you've helped to show us a mutual interest. Cheers!
Personally, my favorite part is watching you keep track of where all the metal goes, sweeping it up and sorting it. I love seeing zero wasted material. Plus the quiet chill atmosphere of your vids really helps me chill out.
It's the seeing how much of what metal is in these everyday objects, the mixing of metals (making alloys: brass, Nordic gold etc), the prep, the melting, the pouring, the finishing to a mirror polish, and for some reason the value of it in all the different currencies. Also the weird things in between have a certain comedic edge to them - last week you taped the sleeve to your drink and I laughed; incredible
You're so right about that. I learned a lot from these videos and not only how to melt, also what metals are more commonly used in machines, tools or motors!
I love to see how organized you are, all the efforts you make to gather all the leftovers and dust for future melts. I guess my favourite part is the pouring (and the doggos) 👌❤
What I like: 1.) Your goofy kid-like humor. My wife and I think its hilarious when you walk with small steps and film your feet lol 2.) Ice smashing is always a treat. Never can get old. 3.) We find it so funny when you have videos that have a story plot where you get in trouble by your wife and she gets you in trouble so you get bored and melt something. Really really comical! 4.) Love the video editing. Nothing ever gets drawn out and boring. 5.) I like your melting and casting too lol always appreciated your technical break downs of what is going on 6.) I dont see it much but I like it when you accidently find a metal in a break down that you weren't expecting and you put a funny *hungry face* emoji XD
Some may think “live the fact” was a spelling error but when you think about it... I Love to Live the Fact too and it is very humbling to admit one’s mistakes & own up to it. Amazing unintentional/ purposeful comment! Peace my friends.
The entire process is what I like. Disassembly, melting, pouring, finishing. Beer. Doggies. The visual text and emojis. A man sharing his craft with the whole world. Thank you for what you do.
This is THE QUINTESSENTIAL BIGSTACKD video...a huge dismantling, bunch of different stuff, different melts and flames, the ice block and the water boil, the dogs eat plenty of cucumber (lol), the molds, the cleanup, the organization of the pieces, showing the clean up collection, a nice big pile of finished stuff... I'm gonna send this one out to my friends to get them started and subsequently hooked, like I got hooked just maybe a couple months ago, tops lol.. Cheers from NYC!
@@bigstackD I already sent it directly to my 5 man group text, copied and pasted what I wrote here in the text 😆 probably gonna put it up on FB too once I'm done droppin this deuce lol
These videos are very relaxing for me. They’re quiet. You never say anything out loud. You never show your face, because it’s all about the melt. You are a man working a craft. That’s all people need to know. That makes you pure. Also I love your dogs. It means that you have passion as well as craftiness. And your taste in music is wonderful as you’re driving to the scrap yard. If I ever got a chance to go to Australia, I would want to go to the Perth area. I’ve heard the Indian Ocean is nice.
I like people who make things. My grandfather was a carpenter. He's been gone 40 years. But the things he built still go on and continue to serve a purpose. Destroying is easy. Creating is the hard part.
Yes, I like the melting, and the pouring, and the dogs, and the ice, and just typically a few other things too. I actually enjoy no narrations. Great natural sounds.
Hello from South Wales. The dogs of course but mainly it's the BigstackD 'stack's march toward that one tonne finish line, and the work you have to do to reach it, You'r video's are also very entertaining in the way they're put together.
i love how you are careful and take all safety precautions, preheating everything. You are a good example for other salvagers. I don't like to see how others seems disorganized and move sloppily around with dangerous hot metals.
I work for an electric motor rewind shop. I have tons of scrap motors that ate now a new mission. I have built my own furnace and am practicing your trade. The I like most is that you take time to video this wonderful trade and teach people how to turn crap into treasure. Thank you man. Cheers!
My fav part is watching it go from such sophisticated materials made by man back to its original form. It’s like the exact opposite of stepping on a lego.
"The melting, the pouring, the ice, or the dogs?" All of those things honestly. It all combines to be my wind down at the end of the week. Love the occasional weird colored flames like this one produced.
Honestly the best part of these videos, in my opinion, is the practicality of the whole thing. You can make most anything by casting, and by using free materials, why not.
Honestly it is all of it, and the fact that you do not screw around with a bunch of idle chit chat, you find stuff to tear apart and break down. Melt it all and show me what is left over, I am absolutely entertained and you do not have to say a word.
I like everything you mentioned and more, I like your cool, quirky socks, the fact that you don't waste anything, the trips to the salvage yard, the ice cool downs, how pretty your area is and that you seem to know how to take apart everything and anything but my absolute favorites are the boys, Ingot and Bullion.
I always thought that was such a cool touch. I remember the first time I saw it and I was 'wtf? Is this guy seriously flaunting how rich he is by using money to start off his forge??? Then 10 seconds later realized it had to be play money. Confirmed shortly after. You have to be a serious idiot to think BigD was burning money all the time, but I guess there were enough serious idiots to make The Man drop the gimmick. Self-righteous idiots piss me off to no end.
There is a balance to what you do that makes your videos so enjoyable. Of course, there's the dogs- who doesn't like dogs- but the ice thing is always good, as well as the beer, the flag and the ever increasing trophy cabinet and your weight/value info. Just keep doing what you do. I reckon most subscribers here would agree.
I have a thought on a possibility for a future pour, Pick one of your Tattoos, and create a 3D print of it, then bring it to Life, by Casting it in your favorite metal. Does anyone like this idea???
I want to see him try the life sized skull again. Try to get it all quick enough so there's no solid layers having poured liquid on. One perfect peice.
My 7 yo son and I watch a video of yours every night. He loves your dogs especially the little ice ones! He enjoys seeing the whole process and we are both cheering for you to hit your 1 tonne mark! Happy smelting from the USA
i atleast like to watch this because its a friday-tradition now, late brekkie and some melted metal. as to Why ? idk, but iadk why i keep wathcing primitive technology make a new pot or build a new house out of straw, or why i enjoy watching handtool rescue bonk his head at the sandingstation. possibly because its quiet in a world that´s screaming at us every chance it gets, possibly because its nice to see a craft being perfected as you watch. while you learn, i also learn but with much less sweat and tears. also, doggos are nice.
Yeah the dogs, the cheers to beers, no unnecessary commentary, these are things that make the video even greater to watch. The juice is watching the process of melting....It's comforting, like watching something being cleaned to a polish. It just scratches that itch, that can almost be described as an OCD...But more like watching a fire while enjoying some cocoa, and less of compulsive feeling??? Idk, how to describe it, but watching this is fascinating.
Anything with dogs will always be my favorite. We have lost 3 of our 4 babies in the last year and my heart breaks everyday. I love seeing other people love dogs. But literally the whole thing is awesome. I just truly enjoy watching the start to finish product. I honestly thought why is YT recommending this to me and I watched one video and became addicted.
Me: It's Friday, bigstackD has a new vid! Boyfriend: Wanton destruction of metallic objects? Me: Repurposing!!! 1. I'm amazed how your boys love veggies. 2. Chemical fire: beautiful and deadly.
Full head to toe shots of the man himself in this one! A few more years and we may see his face. 😂 Actually I think not showing his face and not doing voiceover go well together. A person undefined (or less defined) appeals to more people as there are less assumptions (prejudice) that can be made.
There's not just one thing that makes your videos awesome, it's the amazing personality you show without hearing or seeing you. And the video, of course.
Spouse: This hobby of yours is such a waste of time. bigstackD: Here is the check from TH-cam for my 700,000 subscribers... Spouse: I think you should do this more, in fact do it full time.
@@docholiday2538 hey Dog Man, you should totally do it. Even if it doesn’t take off, at least your doing something that you’re passionate about, and the courage to share it with the world, is commendable
I like it when you find something out of the norm to melt, the disassemble (violently and tactically) and put the metal to use as something fun or useful.
I love that you can go to a dumpster and breakdown something that someone threw away into all those glorious ingots. Makes me want to start up smelting as a hobby!
You know what it is for me? It's the ritual. The disassembly of something into component parts, and then into solid blocks of base material. The dog breaks, and the cheers are gravy on the top. You have so much good content on here. On top of that, you've taken the time to speed up the right parts.
Every part of the video is enjoyable to watch. i don't know how you do it but you never talk and never show your face but you still manage to keep our attention with breakdowns, tips, and tricks. on what you're doing. keep up the good work. i always look forward to your Friday videos
I love everything about the videos! Your personality the most though which is presented in the manner you film and act the videos,. Watched your videos for a year now and love them all!
I think it's kinda cool how you show how to take care of all the tools and things that you use for this type of stuff. Also, definitely nice not having any talking, only focused on the casting process and the dogs. None of the usual "TH-cam personality" stuff. Honestly refreshing.
I think what I like most about your videos is how relaxing & authentic they are. Lots of ASMR. And you always cheers to us! So cheers to you my friend! 🍻
Seeing where you obtain the materials to melt, the disassembly, and melting are my favorite. As well as the color changes while burning off and cooling. ♡
It's the fact that you have taken the middleman out of the recycling process and turn it into an art form pretty cool to watch a pretty cool to watch the stack that you build
I love the videos because they are hypnotize me: as a person with Aspergers, I tend to stick to same procedures everyday. And this is what I experience here as well. Same procedure in every video. This makes me feel comfortable. Besides from that I really like the fact that you are doing the opposite of production - recycling, dismantling and sorting. These processes make me feel good. I love that you make it dirty sometimes (like when dust is flying all over the place) but then clean it up afterwards and sit down to relax. All these manly procedures make me feel great and relaxed. I miss some details about the smelting and I would like one day to see a full process video, unedited. Thank you from Ukraine!
The longer vids for sure...from getting the materials,taking them apart to the melting....it's all awesome and the presentation you use tells the whole story...I can't get enough
Hey everyone 👋🏻I hope u are all well and that u enjoy this weeks video. This one is a little longer as I just had so much footage and wanted to show it all! Also I would love to hear any of your feedback in the comments below👇 on what part of my videos you enjoy the most? Melting,scrapping,dog content or anything else you enjoy .Any feedback for future videos is greatly appreciated 🙌
Stay well and see you all next week!
Man i always wanted to get into forging. I gotta get myself a forge

@Big Woofy dog Yeah!
I like the melting and the pouring

It's the whole package...not any one thing. The dismantling, the sorting, the melting, the pouring, the buffing, etc... Great stuff!
You forgot the dogs ! 😆

I love the disassemble, the separation, the puppies getting snacks, the work of art melting the ice, the whole process!!!! 🍻cheers!
I love how you carefully dismantle mysterious components elegantly with a gentle blow from a hammer.

I like the calmess of it. No words. Just smelting and kindness to animals.
WOOOOP WOOOOP SPIFFILY SPOKEN Exactly sometimes u just dont wanna hear voices just sound
It's the seeing how much of what metal is in these everyday objects, the mixing of metals (making alloys: brass, Nordic gold etc), the prep, the melting, the pouring, the finishing to a mirror polish, and for some reason the value of it in all the different currencies. Also the weird things in between have a certain comedic edge to them - last week you taped the sleeve to your drink and I laughed; incredible
Jaa jaa Apne baap ko mat sikha
Can't go without the values, both monetary and comedic!!!
That's a cool observation. Seeing how much is in everyday bullshit lol. I dig it.
I like not only how he shows but practicality teaches us everything he does and how to do it
So not only do I have fun i learn
You're so right about that. I learned a lot from these videos and not only how to melt, also what metals are more commonly used in machines, tools or motors!
I have a few hobbies on the go with a busy life with kids and I just wanna start a melting operation now!! Dammit! Such good videos though.
Just love how the calming effect of the melt just takes away the noises of life.
So true

@@helpmefixthis9117 Oh, don't be so jealous.
I like it but also don’t. I watch to learn and having just a bit more texted commentary might be a good addition. Explaining for us newbies.
You disassembling the cabinet is oddly satisfying.
The fact that you take the time out of your work to play with your dogs and show them love it warms my heart every time🥰
It's the Attitude! "I'm not doing this to 'piss off 'anyone, I'm enjoying this !"
And love the puppies.
Ok so I'm new to your channel and I'd never would have thought that watching metals melting would be so relaxing.
I reckon it certainly helps when you cut out all the talking BS and you don’t play crap music in the background👍🏻

I like people who make things. My grandfather was a carpenter. He's been gone 40 years. But the things he built still go on and continue to serve a purpose. Destroying is easy. Creating is the hard part.
Yes, you are very true.
Technically he is destroying though
Adeeb Momen - I recon he Is repurposing alot of things into clean ingots so there free of impurity’s and ready for future casting projects👍🏻
absolute madlad at 5:28 not stripping the cables, he is a man of focus, commitment, and sheer will
Its the feeling like I've learned something without you ever speaking a word. It inspires me to become a recycler/reclaimer.

Not only did they throw out a VSD, they left an ice cold beer in there too!
It was broken anyways, the beer....
Honestly the best part of these videos, in my opinion, is the practicality of the whole thing. You can make most anything by casting, and by using free materials, why not.
I pretty much like everything about this channel from the underlying humor to the final product.

I like that the video is relaxing to watch. No talking, still funny, almost meditative.
I like the organization. Bins for everything. It all goes back in a box at the end of the day.
I have a thought on a possibility for a future pour,
Pick one of your Tattoos, and create a 3D print of it, then bring it to Life, by Casting it in your favorite metal.
Does anyone like this idea???
Yes yes I do like the idea
Why not go one step further? Make a cast of himself and build a life size version tattoos included
future pour*
I want to see him try the life sized skull again. Try to get it all quick enough so there's no solid layers having poured liquid on. One perfect peice.

The headbonk makes me giggle every time. Like I know it's coming but it still gets me.
I’ve started nodding my head in time to the bonk
The melting, the pouring, the absence of voiceover and the the lack of music. :-)

Most satisfying for me is the end result. Seeing those ingots come out perfectly shaped and glowing hot is just amazing.

every electrical switch and circuit breaker is made out of SILVER... find the switch then the contacts, thats where the pure silver is..
Don't giv me hope buddy 😂😂
I actually really like that there is no intro or other BS and its all just content that is watchable, I never find myself skipping through your videos
There's not just one thing that makes your videos awesome, it's the amazing personality you show without hearing or seeing you. And the video, of course.
A big stack of face reveal right there!
At 17:00 there was a box labeled "sanding shit". That's australian if I ever saw anything.
There are at least 4 “sanding shit” boxes.

I died twice
You only live once
I like watching you take apart the machines, melting, and polishing. The dogs are pretty awesome too.
I like how casual you work, yet everything stays organized. Ingot & Bullion give you bonus points.
Spouse: This hobby of yours is such a waste of time.
bigstackD: Here is the check from TH-cam for my 700,000 subscribers...
Spouse: I think you should do this more, in fact do it full time.
760,000 subs***
What sucks is they get paid by 1,000 views anything from .50cents per 1000 to $25.00 per 1000 depending on what their content is.
It's still over 1k even at .50 with his 3 videos a month 😁. Maybe I should start a channel lol... Maybe a gunsmithing channel, or a fishing channel.
@@docholiday2538 hey Dog Man, you should totally do it. Even if it doesn’t take off, at least your doing something that you’re passionate about, and the courage to share it with the world, is commendable
@@docholiday2538 idk about watching fishing, but i'll certainly give it a chance if you upload it.
24 dislikes.. go to another channel chops.. this is for serious fans only
Do a glass melt down I wanna see what happens.
Same here i hope it will be satisfying
I like it when you find something out of the norm to melt, the disassemble (violently and tactically) and put the metal to use as something fun or useful.
The dogs are so cool, but I love watching the metals melt down and get poured into forms. AWESOME
16:46 “I’ll carefully open this”
Smash it with the hammer
Привет, без четвероногих друзей было б неинтересно
Da
I love that you can go to a dumpster and breakdown something that someone threw away into all those glorious ingots. Makes me want to start up smelting as a hobby!
You know what it is for me? It's the ritual. The disassembly of something into component parts, and then into solid blocks of base material. The dog breaks, and the cheers are gravy on the top. You have so much good content on here. On top of that, you've taken the time to speed up the right parts.
😁👊🏻
I love it all, but really enjoy you interaction with your dogs. They are precious.
Every part of the video is enjoyable to watch. i don't know how you do it but you never talk and never show your face but you still manage to keep our attention with breakdowns, tips, and tricks. on what you're doing. keep up the good work. i always look forward to your Friday videos
Everything combined is my favorite. But if I gotta pick, I really enjoy you dismantling things, it's very peaceful and pleasant
I love everything about the videos! Your personality the most though which is presented in the manner you film and act the videos,.
Watched your videos for a year now and love them all!
My favorite part is the melting, and separating the slag from the *pure* metal beneath... Really satisfying.
Hard to pick a favorite part. I like all of it: Melting down trash to make beautiful shiny bars, adorable puppies, satisfying metal pouring.
The best bit for me, personally is the finding through to finishing. SCRAP 2 CASH!!!!
This 1 was very satisfying. TY!
I like the finding of the scrap and dismantling things most.
I think it's kinda cool how you show how to take care of all the tools and things that you use for this type of stuff. Also, definitely nice not having any talking, only focused on the casting process and the dogs. None of the usual "TH-cam personality" stuff. Honestly refreshing.
I think what I like most about your videos is how relaxing & authentic they are. Lots of ASMR. And you always cheers to us! So cheers to you my friend! 🍻
Seeing where you obtain the materials to melt, the disassembly, and melting are my favorite.
As well as the color changes while burning off and cooling. ♡
It's the fact that you have taken the middleman out of the recycling process and turn it into an art form pretty cool to watch a pretty cool to watch the stack that you build
I really like seeing what and how you harvest the raw metal from scraps, helps keep my eyes open for metal myself
I love the videos because they are hypnotize me: as a person with Aspergers, I tend to stick to same procedures everyday. And this is what I experience here as well. Same procedure in every video. This makes me feel comfortable. Besides from that I really like the fact that you are doing the opposite of production - recycling, dismantling and sorting. These processes make me feel good. I love that you make it dirty sometimes (like when dust is flying all over the place) but then clean it up afterwards and sit down to relax. All these manly procedures make me feel great and relaxed.
I miss some details about the smelting and I would like one day to see a full process video, unedited.
Thank you from Ukraine!
Sooo satisfying to watch things recycled, reused or reanimated for a new life.
The longer vids for sure...from getting the materials,taking them apart to the melting....it's all awesome and the presentation you use tells the whole story...I can't get enough
