    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.

    I have to say you are super lucky. When I look and dumpster dive I very seldom find anything worth while. These solenoids are from the old school for sure. Just so much metal you can do things with. I would bet you that these would be great to control flammable liquids for controlling a gasoline engine safely. You know, getting high mileage in the fifty miles range. The part I love is when you pour the copper. Looks like a fondue fountain. Nice work Sir.

    This video was an absolute delight. I was only disappointed once when BigstackD didn't do his ice thing with the aluminium but figured it was a type of metal thing. Then he did the ice thing with the copper and I was happy again. Lol. I especially loved the parts where he pokes the fan, hammers the metal brackets to his work bench and then knocks over his own aluminium bar stack with the draws stick (sp?). Anyway this video hit my asmr fix good. I thought for a moment he might make more nordic gold but was happy as is with what was presented. I also really really LOVED that he included safety text, took safety precautions and included different shots for the pours. Watching the liquid metal pour was an enjoyable experience. I had things I loved from both angles given. I have no questions from this video, because BigstackD actually answered them preemptively in the video itself. The money shot for the bars vault was like having that one itch you can never reach scratched perfectly.
    He's getting sooo close to his goal. I'm getting excited to see the goal reached video. Will it happen this year?

    I love all the tips you are giving us like the cardboard and heating the bigger metal for steam explosions etc, it is really helpful for women like me who haven't actually started their melting journey yet! So many ingots!! I adore the way you seperate all the components and the drilling was fantastic!! ASMR indeed!! I love that soft beautiful cooper from solenoids! Great feature length video, loved everything about it👍

    Those are blow off control boxes. They are used in huge dust collectors to take that small solenoid and use it to open a larger one that will pulse the dust off of the filters inside the dust collector. We have a huge dust collector that has 64 pulsers.

      I don’t actually sell them mate I just show them off for my mate who owns and runs devil forge.👍🏻. Definitely the best quality furnaces available on the Internet and a lot better than those cheap Chinese rip-off furnaces that is flooding the market.
      If you ever decide to go ahead and purchase definitely hit me up on my email and I’ll send through a heap of info to get you started as well as a discount link. It’s only a 5% discount but at least it’ll get a few beers👍🏻

    Excellent video as always, that was a lot of disassembly but well worth the rewards. I like those steel pieces you kept and the one you're putting on the wall is perfect for that!
    Those are some crazy temperture swings from the morning to afternoon/evening. Although yesterday we went from 54f ( 12c ) with flood warnings to last night 12f ( -11c ) with winter storm warnings . Living in Michigan surrounded by the great lakes they sometimes give us strange weather.
    Though I can take the cold better than the heat you deal with. Over 90f (32c ) I'm done!!
    Take care and stay cool!

    Loved the walk on the beach with the boys 🥰 i have to get up & walk my boys about 5am in the summer too, gets way too hot after the sun comes up!
    I was watching 1 of the older videos & it looks like Bullion outgrew some of his white markings! The same thing happened to my little black dachshund, he was black with gray spots when I 1st got him but he outgrew most of the spots🐶
    That gold trim across the front is a cool addition to your workbench!
    I didn't remember the purple bits, didn't expect so much copper to be stuffed in them! Quite an addition to the stack this week, gonna hit 1 ton in no time 👍

    two extra tools for your kit : a surface mill to clean up the ingots after casting, much faster, smoother and much less mess and a ball mill to break up all the slag chunks so they can be sifted, sorted faster with greater return. Just an idea. love the videos!

    I'm interested in the take-apart selection process. How'd you know what is what, goes where, and which is trash?

    Or even googling the parts, perhaps?
