Here I take you through each step in making a new casting furnace.

I heat treat rubies in my furnace for the first time to get a feel for the process.

My laser cutter has been missing steps on cuts and causing tons of headaches. I decided to get a few new stepper motors and swap them out to fix the issue.

Here I show you how to pour silver shot from the left over silver from making the silver crystal growing video. Growing large silver crystals: czcams.com/video/QDwJG9JYWKI/video.html

In this video I show you how to grow large silver metal crystals in a bath of silver nitrate. The whole process in this video took 30 days.

Here we figure out if shrink film can be cut with a laser cutter without warping or shrinking during the cutting process. Earth Prelude Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

In this video I take you through the last leg of my laser cutter build. I'm sure there will be more to come from it. If you haven't seen them you can watch the other parts below Part 1: czcams.com/video/DvFBhxP-5sw/video.html Part 2: czcams.com/video/pooF_2aUGKs/video.html Part 3: czcams.com/video/NULZSxGtrH0/video.html

A short video showing how I clean a decent size quartz crystal cluster. First I soak it in Iron Out for a couple days and then I soak it in HCl for a couple more.

I purchased the mid tier emerald bag from Emerald Village in NC. Here we go through the bag and show you what it consists of. Also at the end I give a walk through of the mine itself.

We went to North Carolina and visited Elijah Mountain Gem Mine. We picked up their largest gem bucket (15 gallon) to take home called the "Big Honkin Tub" I show you what it is like to go through the bag, the final yield, and a brief walk through of the "mine" itself.

I get a couple jars that can be sealed and I fill them with a couple scoops of sediment from a river and a lake. They are then permanently sealed and their ecosystem is allowed to take over.
