Turn Scrap COPPER Pipes Into Custom Golden Coins At Home - Custom Coins Made Easy

- In this video I'll be making my own custom copper coins from scrap copper pipes. The coins were cast in graphite molds that I made. The copper pipes were melted down in my furnace until they were liquid metal and simply poured into the open molds. I used a wire brush to clean up some of them and a tumbler to clean the rest.

Hey everyone! Happy Thursday and I hope you all enjoy this weeks video! The Monkey Island mold is now available on my website (link in the description) These sell out really fast but don’t worry as more are constantly being made daily. Enjoy! 👍🏻
Terminator
ArtByAdrock just wondering, can you show what happens if you don’t preheat a mold?
Thanks
I take it no correct answers yet? How about “Earth” I have screenshots of all 3 clues and it’s driving me nuts!
@@jacklianos you really don't want that. It's called a possibility of exploding melted copper. Third degree burns, possibly clothing catching fire.
@@jacklianos It actually happened in one of his earlier videos, can't remember which one.
I got $5 that says bigstackd is about to buy a tumbler.
Yep, The Wulf56 did this two weeks ago.
I would prefer a tumbler if I were pouring. Just saying. Lol
I’ll see your $5 and raise you by $50 on that Andrew 😁

The difference between the two cleaning methods was outstanding, the tumbler is the way to go for your smaller items
Definitely like the tumbler ones best. All look amazing, but I love that deeper color the tumbler created!!
Very cool, my vote is for the Tumbler polished units, more vibrant color. Thanks for sharing.
They're looking good!! Tumbler seems the way to go !!!
I was just about to suggest using a tumbler when you brought one out. The coins definitely look better from the tumbler and they would look even better if you used a smaller medium and left the coins in longer. But you wouldn’t want to leave them in too long as the medium could polish away all the fine details, it’s something you might have to experiment with but nice job anyway 👍
That tumbler is awesome. I can’t believe how clean those coins were.
Wow! The tumbler does an excellent job of polishing!
The tumbler, looks like IT gives more shine to it
OMG the tumbled ones look fantastic.
Love it man! Appreciate you taking the time to make a video. I'll be working similar projects in the near future. Love the retro game intermission too!
not to sure which method of cleaning was better as I like the both methods the tumbled ones came out with a tarnish on them (gives them age) and the ones that were wired brushed looked new. Great video there Adrock Keep up the good work and see you next week mate another great episode of ArtByAdrock. 😁👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😎
Very nice molds. I was just thinking after you made the coins that you needed a tumbler, and low and behold you break one out. It's a pretty good one, I got the same one a few weeks back, they do make the items look awesome. Great video, stay safe and stay cool.
Awesome video Adrock. The tumbler works pretty dang good.
The tumbler is definitely the way to go dude. The finish is awesome.
What a great looking bunch of coins. They turned out beautiful. However, I must say that the tumbler put out one heck of a shine.
It's so nice of you to go out in that weather and melt! I've refused to fire mine up and it is only 105 here this week and have been refusing since it hit 90!
Yes, the tumbler worked much better. Great clip!!
WOOHOO! A balmy 110! :O
Some items will require different methods for cleaning.
Nice 8-bit boxing! Go Lil Mac! :D
Sweet coins buddy!
I like them all!
The ones in the tumbler are definitely nicer, but I'll take 'em all! LOL
Thanx for a great vid Adam!
I got you brotha! Nintendo was tons of fun to replay after so many years! I bet most people won’t even know what it is 🤣
Big fan love your videos 😍😍😍😍
Awesome!
From Beastie Boys to backyard minter. Yea! 👍
Nice melt! “Mike Tyson’s punch out” definitely brought back memories.
Yes Thursday again nice i think the tumbler did a better job too i always love your work
Those coins are really cool
Nice way of ck
Cleaning coins!!!
The tumbler did a great job
Sweet!
GOOD JOB ADAM THE TUMBLER WINS HANDS DOWN AWESOME LOOKING COINS ADAM 👍😎🇨🇦👍😎🇨🇦👍😎🇨🇦
Cool coins, the tumbler looks way better
wow that skull looks amazing
Awesome video and simple
Nice. Cool.
Thanks for sharing
Great video inspiring to do it myself
Tuyệt tôi rất thích cách làm của bạn, cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ
If you have to hit it more than twice, you need a bigger hammer. Cool video.
😍
Cool Stuff I think the Tumbler has the better look.
Very nice😊
Pretty nice.
Not sure what I ❤️ the most, The classic Nintendo Or the art you make but damn awsome Bro!!!
Fantasticas monedas, 💥🔥
Ball mill! A big quality of life upgrade unless you particularly like sanding for some reason :) I wonder how the results would be if you took tumbled pieces to the buffing wheel.
Nice really like
I like the looks of the coins better from the tumbler. 👍🏼
Lol the tumbler works even better if you use stone and 2 pinches of sand
Good video budy
👍
You can make things easier and reduce losses to oxidation by melting long, uncut, pieces of copper and feeding them into the puddle. Yeah, its blinding but it also gives you the chance to stir the puddle while you're filling the crucible.
The tumbler does a very nice job.
Wonder if it needs the full 3 hours though, but I'm sure you will find out or already know.
Curious, what is the abrasive in the tumbler?
I got a mold from you awhile ago and just today was able to use it and this is how it turned out well I can't take a picture of it but it turned out good not great on the detail but still I very nice coin
The Copper King AdROCK !
Hey have any Smaugy Gold Smelting videos?
Tumbler indeed. Wire brush scratches alot and one applies pressure as well. Tumbler it works 'softer'
Here is a hint for the tumbler. add a splash of vinegar and a dash of citric powder used for canning to the water , Dawn and stainless pins - you think your results are good, wait till you see what the vinegar and citric do.
Its the method I use to clean all my brass for reloading and it is impressive
Tumble for sure... only if you are not in a hurry..... and for small pieces..very nice coins.....
Nice control
👍
question??? HOw is the easiet way to make a mold to melt copper and make beads...maybe plaster? cement?? thank you
Very cool. I've been wanting to get into this hobby. What would be a good set up to start with? and where would one purchase all the items needed / whats the best quality items to buy? Thanks
Nice coins ;-)
What did you use in the tumbler? I like the tumbler coins better as it appears to have left more detail then the wire brush!
Tumblerino!
When using the tumbler, what did you put in there with the coins? Tack nails?
Definitely the tumbler for cleaning; it can reach spots more easily than a wire brush can.
Was wondering were did you get your molds made that you are saling i need one off mold made and was wondering @ArtByAdrock
Craftsman!!
I'd go with the tumbler. It keeps the details that the wire brush strips away. As for the NES classic, that was Glass Jaw Joe. He couldn't hit the ground after 20 shots of whiskey. STAY SHINY 😁
здравствуйте классные слитки получились
And here i was thinking that the coins would have 2 faces!!
Tumbler has more rich color. I like it
No contest bruv that tumblers the bees knees and less elbow grease, win win
Looks like the tumbler cleaned them up better.
Very nice with the tumbler. Do you think a second round with nut shells would make the coins even more shiny? Also if you want a hammer that would make very short work of the pipes, my loyal 64oz steel face dead blow would love to make art after 22yrs of beating on rusted suspension. Just tell me how to send it.
😀
I saw you catching a spider I just recommend keep it as your pet like bigstackd has
Ihhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhjjjhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhjjjjjjjhhh
.......Always use the tumbler!
So as i love the look of the coins how much of a pain in the ass would it be to get and do a double sided coin of the same size molds?
Awesome job! Which 3d printer do you use? My daughter is a budding artist and I am looking into maybe purchasing one in the near future. Any guidance would be appreciated!
I personally use a monoprice maker select v2. Not a bad machine. Cost around $300.
Tumbler definitely makes it look like copper, wire brush looks more like bronze sometimes... 🤷♂️
I think BigstackD needs to get a bigger tumbler and polish up all the coins he has so far, they look much better tumbled. Just a tip for the tumbler try getting small stainless steel bearings, that's what they use in casino's to clean up the change and it works great.
COPPER!!!!!!🤤🤤🤤
Was there no slag when you melted this stuff or did you just not record yourself collecting IT? I’m curios as I wanna get into casting my own copper coins but dunno when to add borax a and when not too
You should get a vibratory tumbler yo.
Tumbler looks better richer colour beast mode on the Nintendo BTW 👍
Tumbler works better. Also it reduces loss of copper powder.
Can i buy moulds to make 1 oz copper bars and one for coins?
U have more subs then some small countrys
I need to buy a tumbler..
The tumbler all the way, that's slot of coins how about a give away! Good work though 👍
Ive been watching you and bigstack for a while now even bought a devil forge. Im looking to buy some coin moulds...where can i find them? Cheers from the uk
They are available on my website. Check the description
@@ArtByAdrock cheers ill have a look. Also im having trouble with my greensand not holding its edges when removing the molds.any advice?
Is it wet enough/dry enough? Are you using talc? What’s the original piece made of? There’s many factors that can cause problems
@@ArtByAdrock when i removed my mould(made from wood) the edges seem dry and crumble easily i have added more water but dont want it too wet. Talc for parting agent
How hard should i be ramming the cope? Top side of cast always comes out better that the bottom
try wire brush, then tumbler, see what happens???
A new toy... 😁
Hey adrock how do we put a pre order in for the 8kg ingot moulds says outta stock taking pre order and GM is postage to uk looking to order afew of your moulds will the codpoints mould be avalible soon aswell??
Will
I’m not sure when I’ll have the big ingot molds back in stock but the cod points coin will be available soon as I’m trying to get a bunch in stock before I release them
@@ArtByAdrock ok mate thanks I'll keep a eye out curious how much is postage to uk for ur moulds the pirate coin and monkey island one
Will
you need a dragon coin to go along with the 1-up mushroom
Ну норм)
Whats the best smelter for the price?
Tumbler. As it looks and less mess
Sup bruv are you going to load any of those coins on your site? Every Time I check your stock your always out?
They sell out the instant I put them up. You can still order and they are shipped as they are made.
@@ArtByAdrock I have no doubt bru thx man
You could have used a tube cutter on that copper pipe. In all that came out well.
They look like Jaffa cakes. lol
Where do you get molds?
How can I get molds made?
Send me an email with what you are looking for.
