HOW TO MIRROR FINISH A BAR
I start with an 80 grit flap disc on my angle grinder then I use my drill with 50 mm round sanding discs . I start with 150 grit then go through the following Grits 240-400-800 Then once I get to the following Grits I use a small squirt of WD-40 1200-1500-2000-2500-3000. The WD40 helps to lubricate the discs and stops the sanding disk binding up with the metal powder . Then after that I use my buffer wheel on my bench grinder to get a perfect mirrored finish on it.

Back again for my fifth year without missing a single weekly upload. Today is a great one as I love to do the copper melts , it pours so well. And boy did it get hot in this Video as it was filmed on boxing day when we experience the hottest December day on record where I live🥵. Now sit back relax and enjoy today’s video. Take care BSafe and have a great New Years my friends and I hope to see you all next Friday👋🏻
Thank you bro)
Thanks you bro 👍🏻😎
Beautiful Beautiful copper, you gotta love it
Thanks bro
im like this soooo much im acualy do casting myself but not on gass just coal and wood!🙂
I’m in California USA and I watch these every Thursday night after work before bed. Helps me pass out after a rough day working in the hospital. Thank you for the content.
California sucks pp
@@paulkenville445 why would it be unfair if everyone who is of legal voting age is allowed to vote?
@@al1b4b4_ over here voting is a right, not a privilege. Anyone who is a legal adult can vote. It's supposed to be citizens, but these days apparently even illegals can vote. I live in California too. I'm not going to pretend that it's the best state I've ever been in, but it's certainly not the worst.

Checking your dogs, grabbing a beer, throwing your shoes, checking the temperature, snacking stuff from your workplace, cooling with ice and then breaking the ice cube with somehing heavy etc. those kind of things is your signature. I like this routine stuff in your videos
if you did this stuff in my neighborhood when i was a kid i would have been over there watching you work everyday. i love watching you work
In my childhood we were looking for broken car batteries and smelt them for lead knuckles. If only one gave us an idea to smelt it to ingots and sell. We would have unlimited ice-cream then🤣
I love that he saves up all the dust for later. Nothing goes to waste.
That ice thing is a big waste tho
@@barsdurmus579 Doesn't he collect rain water and use that to freeze🤔
Saves ice melts for new ice.

About 9:05 you can see the sweat dripping off. That’s dedication, hanging in a 108F garage to supply a buncha folks with a half hour of entertainment.
Cheers from the other side of the planet, Detroit, MI. It’s 32F right now, with snow in the forecast for the weekend.
Usually when I watch casting videos I think to myself "man don't they lose so much material in the slag?" It's kind of wild to watch such pure copper get melted and there be practically no impurities, it really changed my perspective!
Electric cables has very low percentage of impurities. Usually it's over 99.9% copper in it. That's why there bars have so little slag. And yes, seeing their casting it's beautiful
No impurities except raining spiders
I didn't know a wire like that existed, so I looked it up with a quick web search. This five-conductor cable may have been used for powering mining equipment or other heavy industrial machinery, using a three-phase power system with both a neutral and a ground. Seems like this is a pretty standard type, several companies offer info pages for similar cables on their websites.
I had no idea wire came that big
i was just wondering this thank you kind sir
It looks like either a 120 or 150mm^2 'four-core-and-earth' cable, and they are used for running 3-phase stuff like you said, or to run a large array of single-phase loads on one cable. If you keep going bigger the cores will become their own separate cables before long due to size and weight (I'd say this is near the limits of a 4C+E cable). The mains cables that supply buildings have gone up to 300 or 400mm in my experience and they definitely go a lot bigger than that.
Stuff like this runs shovels and draglines. Pulling it by hand sucks and large enough sections of it has to be dragged by pickups or support equipment. When it fails it usually blows up. Like molten copper spraying is all directions. If
We've got thousands of feet of this stuff all over the mine site and lots of it that is waiting to be repaired or hauled off.
Soo many cables just like that run up 3 separate electrical runs in the bow tower in Calgary Alberta Canada. The outer copper shielded cables with the cork insulation have a much higher temperature and fire rating the the standard steel protection with rubber insulation. It's in towers as fire systems and any other safety systems like elevator power etc...
Everytime I see you meticulously clean the dust of the cut pieces, I remember why I love you so much, you have no idea how incredibly refreshing it is to see someone not waste like half the materials they are using and actually do their best to leave no waste
@@ryanbailey3176 yeah plus there is copper in that dust that can be refined later into actual copper, even if its only a small amount of copper it adds up
Man there’s just something satisfying about him using a new crucible, it’s so clean and smooth
You make furnace operation, smelting, handling and pouring dangerous molten metals in blistering heat look as chill as a fishing video. I'm loving this content!
12:34 was my favorite part!🤣🤣 gotta find the coldest beer! 🍻
Another awesome video brother. 👍
Haha love your silver pours too rob the ripple and the toning 😍
Rob hey
Truly got me with the cable splitter. 😂 Legit opened my mouth in shock saying "IT FITS?!" and then was still satisfied by the comedic try. Thank you so much for all the laughs on such a simple calming video. Keep up the good work!
"That's what she said."
This type of content is just the type of stuff I love. Highly interesting, I love seeing all the random items and cool stuff in the background. Love the fun food breaks and the interactions with the pups. It’s awesome to see something done at a high level that I tried to do in shop class in high school. The whole channel is interesting, fun and keeps my attention.
Great work.
It's what I would class as a "proper man channel"
@@itsmephil2255 absolutely
It's always so satisfying watching you work. I enjoy your process of striping the wires to get the copper, aswell as hearing the soothing sound of the furnace melting the metals. I'm grateful that you do that without any speech or background music. Ingot and Bullion are also amazing, they're amazing pets ❤️
Copper is the most delicious looking metals and you did justice on choosing to melt that for the end of 2021. Great melt and HAPPY NEW YEAR D!
👍👍🤝
Please do a video on the forge re-coat!!!
I've watched this video like 5 times through now, it's so soothing. There's just something about the wire stripping and the clean copper wire that's so satisfying. Keep up the good work!

I discovered your channel during this year, and since then there has not been a Friday that I have missed your videos. I love the way you melt the metal, and the patience you must have for us to see a process lasting many hours in 20 minutes. Thank you for the time you dedicate to us on your channel. Greetings from Spain and happy new year.
I love seeing molten copper. It’s always so smooth and water-like!
As an Electrician I was wondering what to do with my barrels of cut copper wire (ha) . Great video bud and one hell of a shop
I have to wonder what an archaeologist would say if they dug up your hoard there. Probably something like "We're not sure why this man hoarded all of these objects made of various metals and alloys, or why they were created. There's a possibility of some strong ritualistic purpose, as dating shows these objects were created over a span of 5 years with an almost clockwork-like punctuality suggesting a rigid 7-day schedule. Truly we can say this was a man of some importance, as the resources and effort required to create these objects - many of which are similar to artifacts found in other cultures - would be enormous. It is not beyond reason this man was a king among his people, to hoard such a wealth of rare and valuable resources that our forebears could have used to fight the machine uprising suggests one of no small influence."
Archaeology ALWAYS goes straight to temples and religion and ritualistic things to explain anything but the most mundane of finds. Very narrow minded field to be honest.
Lmao, OK, that was funny
THE MACHINE UPRISING ANY DAY NOW
bigstackD: finds thick cable and melts it
Australia: Internet connection to the rest of the world lost
Great video. I love how Ingot and Bullion were not having any beauty shot at the end. They gave us the real show.
I like that you cleaned up the shavings. It’s kinda asmr for me to know that no shaving was left behind, and that your shop is clean in some way.
I enjoy watching your channel, and I love that your dogs are "Ingot" and "Bullion." For future reference, you can set the "tare" weight of your container before weighing the material so you don't have to try to keep all those loose items from falling on the floor. Alternately, you can place the empty container on the scale and "zero" the scale so it will ignore the container weight when weighing.
He usually does. I think putting the copper on the scale by itself was for dramatic effect.
Or have some containers to use with the tare weight written on them.
E.g. a Scrap yard here has a container with T967 on it. Meaning it weighs 967kg
The copper melts are always the best. Happy new year, Big!
Agreed.
Copper just has an ungodly heat capacity. The way they go straight through the block of ice and still sizzle when more ice is added is fascinating. Aluminium bars of the same size stop half way through and he can pick them up after a few seconds..... But the Nordic Gold bars are the shiniest! :P
Copper is my favourite to watch … it’s like 11pm iv got rain sounds on the Alexa and watching these helps any anxiety iv got thanks so much for your videos they really help … greetings from England 🏴
Love your Work (hobby) . Your presentation is first class ! Love the kids . Thank you for sharing your time . Thoroughly have enjoyed myself very impressed with your smelting skills kudos to you , John
I really appreciate you giving a 10 second spider warning.
That's kinda terrifying that they fall from the ceiling like that.
Why’s it terrifying? They’re literally harmless

When you were filling the crucible for the second bar we could see your sweat pouring on to the floor and then evaporating almost immediately.
thank you for making these videos, i love watching people do their craft with out having to hear them talk haha
Wow! You've grown alot since i 1st started watching your videos.
I respect the motivation and dedication!🙏🙌
When I was an Electrician, I remember wiring up an Applebees restaurant bar with those cables. It was SOOOO difficult. Had to bend one end, tie a rope around it, smother the cable with grease and yank it through super narrow conduit to connect with the circuits outside the building. Once I saw the cable here, I had to click. It was a flashback to hard work. 😥
I can't imagine what an applebees was doing using this wire, this is industrial wire used on huge jobs dealing with massive power demands, the biggest thing a restaurant would use would be the number 4s carrying power too and from the transformer. Been an electrician for 10 years and done everything from residential to some huge industrial jobs so Ive see a thing or 2.
@@charlesstidham2788 500 MCM cables feeding from the Main to a 400 amp Distribution Panel. I've seen a thing or 2 as well, not only in the field, but biding for million dollar industries in an office. Why are you so Shocked? 😨🤣 Edit: Residential work is nothing to boast about. 😂
What a great way to start the last day of the year! Thanks D 👍🏻 Thank you for creating a weekly moment of peace for me; your videos always calm me down and put a smile on my face ☺️ Here’s to another five years and making that ton a reality 💪🏻🍻 Cheers big ears! 🍻
I love that we see get to see you basically fuck around while you do this dangerous work. Kicking boots off around the garage, cracking open a cold one without the boys and playing with a desk fan. :D
Hello bigstacksD, guess what! A few days ago I melted COPPER for the first time with my new furnace I got for Christmas and it was awesome seeing/pouring that beautiful molten copper for my first time. Now I have a nice new copper ingot, my first one!
Happy new years everyone, especially you bigstackD:)
10:49 Same with me, I love seeing them cool down like that. Even especially copper and Poly-Copper cast
I started watching these in 2020 on this channel before he had one lol, I still love coming back snd seeing his cute dogos, and that he is still working towards 1 tonne in total weight.
Awesome! I have watched a few of your videos. I am about to get me a forge. I have copper, lead, and silver to melt. I enjoy watching you melt, and I am excited to get started!
WOW!
That's some thick cable for sure!
Processes real nice though!
Not too much fightin! LOL
The pour is excellent!
Makes nice bricks!😀
The coins were a lil wacky, but when aren't they? LOL
Thanx for a great vid D!

Looks like underwater cabling.
I've been watching your videos for more than a year and this is the only time I noticed that the coins you cast in brass was the action coin from The Curse Of Monkey Island!!! So COOL!!!!!
For some reason I like seeing you find the food in the most unlikely boxes, drawers, and under your hat. It works!
That doggo though.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can we appreciate that he always has something different to throw at ice blocks? Lmao. Awesome video as always
Sure, but this one was a bit risky in my opinion. :)
I honestly believe this is one of the best channels I've seen in a long time, it really is interesting and soothing to see how and what you do each week. Will we get an update on what you have and how much it's all worth? Would be interesting to see exactly what you've put on the stack over the last five years.
disclosing the overall value might be a bad idea though
@@chopshops He discloses it pretty regularly, so I don't think it's an issue. He does a breakdown of propane cost vs. how much he gets at the end, and what you would actually be left with in profit, if any. Occasionally at the end of the video when he shows 'the shelf' he shows an estimated value. That's one of his other great contrasts to some of the other smelting channels... he takes a little time to actually show what you end up with at the end of the day. :)
@@MandrakeDCR ohhhh I see
@@MandrakeDCR he probably has another job as well, I would like to do this for fun as well (making knifes) but I don't know where to get a good quality furnace or good quality steel, I don't really care that much about price to an extent but I don't want some madeinchina 50% plastic furnace. Any idea where I could get a good quality one?

Nice one BigstackD! But when I saw your post, it looked like you were holding copper twizzlers, and the detail looked really good. I thought you had some new casting technique, and I was dying to see it! ;-) Even so, your filming of copper melts is second to none. I don't know how you get such great footage. Well done!
Nice👍👍👍👍👍👍
Ya I just now realized that
His face is a HD camera
Looking forward to 2022 melts, I think you should up your game and consolidate some of the bars you have into massive bars...
i don’t know why but i fall asleep to these , the sounds of the melting / cutting idk what it is but my brain loves it
I love your stuff! I appreciate the translation from metric for us USA viewers. Keep up the great work
I love everything about his videos. On top of interesting content mixed with excellent humor, he recycles everything! I literally could not ask for anything better. I always look forward to the end where he totals everything up, recycles the leftover pieces, and shows the full collection in all its glory. I'm dying to see him hit his goal!
I know there's not that many of us Arachnophobes, and spiders are basically an inevitability there, but I wanted to call out how you handle it in your videos. An unexpected eight-legged appearance can totally ruin a video for me and I really appreciate you putting in the extra work for the warnings. Happy New Year mate!
CZcams is the best always gives me quality m8s to watch like you! Cheers!!
aah...good fellas on the phone. thats a fine movie right there. cheers!
Absolutely great, thank you for taking us through another year of melting very interesting things into very pretty treasures 😃👍👍👍
Damn that’s a big carrot. Great video brother. Thanks for inspiring me to build my own forge and start melting some metal. I’ve been able to pour a few cool things so far. Thanks brother 👍

Holy shit bigstack liked me comment 😍 you're a don lad keep it up 💕
Just found your channel & it's full of awesome stuff. Subscribed right away.
in my last project last year , someone screwed up royally and didn't check the cable sizing specs properly resulting in a flashover incident during commissioning. A total review revealed more than one system had wrongly sized cables , they were as thick as these.
Result was 15km of brand new, just pulled cables had to be ripped out from all the trenches , ducts, some were buried and condemned as there was no way to take them out. Repull all cables through even longer length as they had to reroute.
The lengths that could be recovered were sold as scrap for close close USD300k. Major FUBAR
Wow guess someone lost their job
Nah that's SNAFU
what do you recon is the electrical characteristics of this cable? All i can say is 3 phase. Probably low-ish voltage (1000v? if there is such a thing). but the Amps? No clue. Looks like a bear to me :D
@@ChrisBigBad looks like medium or high voltage cables, 11kV or even 33kV
@@ChrisBigBad All I can say is that I wish I had whatever equipment that mandated that size cable. No clue what I'd do with it, but I'd certainly use the shit out of it simply on principle.
I'd love to see the current value of your entire collection. That's a lot of work you've done.

My hats off to you. You definitely have to love what you do to handle that heat.
Hell yeah, fresh copper in a fresh crucible, slag free. Love it!
I love using this kind of cable. We're lucky enough to get it already shucked from our scrapyard in 2 foot lengths. Lots of good quality weight in a small package.
More bullion and ingot is required. I love those 2 they are so cute.

That was the coolest, cruelest and happiest dog fight ever!!! Scary monsters. You must feel so safe.
Great product placement. Haha. Love the coins and how you sometimes like the messed up ones the most. Thanks for your videos.
I'm surprised it has so little insulation.The ones we use here are twice as thick for the same amount of wiring inside.It has like more than an inch of solid cast plastic around the wires covered with a steel mesh and finally protected with a thick outer shell.
Low voltage - high Amps wire … insulation can be thinner then
wonder what these cables were used in... 🤔
btw that boat load of copper looks magnificent🤤
My guess would be transmission lines or something on that scale. Something with a lot of amps to it - likely enough to make the wires hum even without being wet.
22kV underground power lines (if you dig on the street you will find similar ones)
Railway cables are a similar size to power the live rail .
Enormous voltage running in them
Yes sir that is really monster copper! His videos are always satisfying
I srsly want to do this myself. Collecting ingots of different materials seems like the perfect hobby for me
Good on you D. I enjoy your content.
Just a thought but if you put the cable through the stripper twice (rotate it 180 degrees the second time) wouldn't the covering just fall off?
It wouldn't cut the plastic coating twice, it would just crush it.
Probably yes - which means all the loose stands of wiring would spill out all over his workbench. remember, wires are just twisted strands of metal to keep them somewhat flexible. As such he is saving himself some hassle and extra work by only making one cut.
Caring for the Spider.... thats 10/10 for me! Awesome Person!
Cylinder throw on ice is like "what". Nice 👍
I must be a weirdo because I’m watching steelmaking or metal pouring ASMR while I’m sitting in a steel mill delivering materials to make steel. I’m staring at giant piles of massive ingots right now lol
