    Nice trick but what about metal fatigue? Wouldn't the torsional stress cause it to break much easier?

    • @Ragnarok043
      @Ragnarok043 Před 7 lety +49

      yes it does work harden the metal, but you can counteract it by annealing with a torch

    • @Sbullakis87

      erdemk0 I agree 100%

    • @lasersbee
      @lasersbee Před 7 lety +19

      erdemk0.. Was thinking the exact same thing.
      It would be more logical to roll the wire between 2 stiff, hard and flat surfaces.

    • @roccocroce
      @roccocroce Před 7 lety +5

      What I was thinking. I've done this with a few materials and noticed considerable brittleness regardless of how ductile the material. Maybe if you just twist really slowly without overheating the wire?

    • @William_ar98
      @William_ar98 Před 7 lety +3

      i did this by hand once and i breaks really easily

  • @pjdambra
    @pjdambra Před 7 lety +5

    I've used twisted bailing wire for as long as I remember. I'm 68 and I first used if hanging mufflers on old cars as a kid. Great material to work with. And as long as it's not over twisted, metal fatigue isn't an issue. Strong and long lasting "bail-out"..

    triple wire looks so cool, it might even be a decoration element.

    I like roll the wire back and forth between two perfectly flat pieces of wood, marble or tile.

  • @K0ester
    @K0ester Před 7 lety +8

    I found it's best to pull back tight on the drill when doing this

  • @jacqueminogue4608
    @jacqueminogue4608 Před 7 lety +15

    Neat trick, but in my experience it weakens the wire considibrally

    • @conniestevenson226
      @conniestevenson226 Před 3 lety

      Its nice to stiffen the wire but if it bends much will prolly snap

  • @Eonz
    @Eonz Před 7 lety +8

    im intrested to see what hapens when they are over drilled.
    and how resistance differ from a normal copper wire and a drilled wire...

  • @grexursorum6006
    @grexursorum6006 Před 7 lety +50

    Not bad... but the wire gets birttle due to that, doent it?
    The conected wires look quite awesome... nice idea!!!

    • @or2kr
      @or2kr Před 7 lety

      only the coating, you have to do something seriously wrong to make the wires themselves brittle

    • @polyjohn3425
      @polyjohn3425 Před 7 lety +9

      +Otto Knabe no, this kind of torsion will make the wires very stiff, far less flexible than they were beforehand, and also decrease their tensile strength considerably.. You can fix by annealing, but just twisting them will make them much weaker.

    • @or2kr
      @or2kr Před 7 lety +1

      +PolyJohn probably, I just meant that it won't suddenly change properties, its still just metal... I guess this "trick" is more for looks than usability

    • @OminousPinapple
      @OminousPinapple Před 7 lety +14

      Otto, No.. it will change the material's properties. The stress on this metal will make it brittle.
      It needs to be annealed before use.

  • @jadenkrosis3087
    @jadenkrosis3087 Před 6 lety +1

    I like it :)
    The material is likely coat hanger wire which is called black muffle. It is a soft and very malleable material and its pretty tough. Its made to be twisted, stretched and bent all you want to a point, of course.
    It is not heat treatable, I mean a guy can hit it with a torch or toss it in a draw oven for a while at any temp you like but it wont make any difference and it will not anneal this already pre-annealed wire.
    It looks as though it is stretched very close to its limits so I imagine the idea is to make straight rods/wires/cables that arent meant to be bent too much more after this. This is a pretty cool way of doing it.

  • @pyroslavx7922
    @pyroslavx7922 Před 7 lety +4

    I prefer a "good" used salvaged, bent, twisted, kinky wire to "bad", brittle, weak micro-cracked internal overstressed one.
    Try scratching it - pulling your fingernails (or teeth ;-) over it and you will feel it is cracked, even if not visible.

  • @LagalagSaEuropa7576
    @LagalagSaEuropa7576 Před 7 lety

    what if a person doesnt have a vise or a drill? dont you think using a hammer would be much easy? and a think thats only good for a foot length wire.what about a long one? how much time it will take you to make it straight?

    • @jangisgand6140
      @jangisgand6140 Před 7 lety +3

      Will Erichson It will basically twist in the other way

    • @playfullburito
      @playfullburito Před 7 lety

      Boba Fett yeah I figured that much. I was wondering if the metal fatigue would just cause it to break.

    • @jangisgand6140
      @jangisgand6140 Před 7 lety

      Will Erichson No it won't. If you keep twisting the wire left and right, you will get a straight wire with no twists or anything in it.

    • @playfullburito
      @playfullburito Před 7 lety +1

      Boba Fett ok cool. so is that a better way to do it then? If it won't cause metal fatigue why didn't he do that? Now I want to try it lol.

    • @jangisgand6140
      @jangisgand6140 Před 7 lety +1

      Will Erichson It is a much better way. I did this before this video and it worked well. I needed a straight wire so I used this trick. it also works with springs.

  • @batman9614
    @batman9614 Před 7 lety

    I don't know how much this weakens the metal, but that's allot of turns, I like to put one end in a vise and grip the other end with large pliers and jerk it, until its perfectly straight.

  • @bodesbodes9408
    @bodesbodes9408 Před 3 lety

    For jobs where wire strength is not important this is very cool.

  • @imajeenyus42
    @imajeenyus42 Před 7 lety

    Neat idea, but it will definitely work-harden the wire, and you end up with a very ripply surface. Much simpler is just to stretch the wire slightly, without twisting.

  • @blackbirdpie217
    @blackbirdpie217 Před 6 lety

    makes it brittle through work hardening, and shortens the wire. Plus it can only be done with very malleable metals.

  • @UnbeltedSundew
    @UnbeltedSundew Před 7 lety

    Works better if you spin it while in tension (ie. pull back on the drill).

  • @JasonDoege
    @JasonDoege Před 7 lety +1

    Avoiding all the twist and stress put into the wire, you can straighten wire by simply stretching it.

  • @kentvandervelden
    @kentvandervelden Před 7 lety +1

    Well done video. Many people saying this will not work and seem to have good explanations, but I do this pretty frequently to join insulated wires into cables by twisting them together, solid and stranded. So far, not a problem, just keep the pitch of the twist reasonable. Have not thought to use it to straighten a wire.

  • @windsurfer3329
    @windsurfer3329 Před 2 lety

    You wouldn't do this if you know about Young's modulus. It will break soon because this whole twisting process imitates bending and straightening wire many times.

  • @Descalabro
    @Descalabro Před 2 lety

    I think you can use the same technique but instead passing the wire through a small orifice as you pull. This was, the wire won't get twisted and weak.

  • @derwissenskiosk8041

  • @jamesperkins2552
    @jamesperkins2552 Před 2 lety

    But the wire would be to brittle to use after that. You take all the plastic deformation potential out of it. Every twist puts the grains under more tensile stress, causes cracks to spread, etc. you are forcing creep on every void and imperfection in the metal. This is how metal fatigue happens.

  • @AverilDoyle
    @AverilDoyle Před 7 lety

    ..And you get a very straight piece of wire that is almost useless from fatigue..
    It's certainly a cool trick, maybe as a trick to impress your friends, but i can't imagine a use for a wire twisted that much.

    проволоке после этого пиздец. и не поможет никакой отжиг. Чтобы уплотнить то что растрескалось надо будет делать горячую прокатку...
    Кстати, знаю способ гораздо проще, и проволока после этого как новая. Даже два способа.
    1. если проволока длинная - протянуть проволоку несколько раз через изгибающий канал змейкой, да хоть между гвоздями.
    2. если проволока короткая - прокатать отрезок проволоки между досками или между металлическими пластинами

  • @Tricknologyinc
    @Tricknologyinc Před 7 lety +10

    No thanks. It's wire anymore. It's twisted wire. If you're just making some crafty artsy fartsy thing, you may not care, but if you need to maintain the strength of the wire, even if you anneal it, you have fatigued, cracked, and stressed it, as well as multiplying the stretching done further from the center by twisting it. Even if you anneal i and you haven't accidentally drawn it beyond it's malleability, You have now completely redistributed all stress applied by tension. You have also greatly distorted the surface shape. the proper way to straighten wire is to run it through 3 rollers set to bend it so slightly from a straight condition, it will simply spring back to straight. Actually, simply tension the wire and plucking it to vibrate will do much of the same thing! You have discovered how people twist wire though!
