We are movers and shakers, makers and fakers, jacks of all trade and masters of ineptitude. There will be no shortage of wild projects and crazy adventures on this channel.
Making a Fancy Chasing Hammer
Having the exact right tools is essential for every project and, sometimes, your time is best spent making those tools. Or you could just make a stupid hammer! This is a scratch built chasing hammer used for carving & engraving.

Casting a Cannon from Brass | Part 2
Переглядів 113 тис.5 років тому
A day late and a dollar short but here is the update to our original cannon casting video. Maybe not the masterpiece we'd hoped for but at least the debilitating suspense you all must be under to see how things turn out can finally come to an end.

Easiest Way to Cast Aluminum | PERFECT CASTING IN 5 MINUTES W/ NEW LOST SHELL METHOD
Переглядів 21 тис.6 років тому
I 3D-printed this hollow shell of Groot because I wanted to find an easier way to cast 3D prints in aluminum. I've seen a lot of videos on the lost PLA method of casting but that is complicated and expensive and I am lazy and cheap. This method (lost shell I guess it would be called) is exceptionally simple and can be done in a few minutes. I have been meaning to try this for a long time but I ...
Casting a Cannon from Brass | Part 1
Переглядів 234 тис.6 років тому
We made a freakin' CANNON. Again! This time we cast it from bullet casings and other scrap brass that we have been collecting for quite a while. The cannon is based on the 12-Pounder Napoleon and the carriage was a garage sale find. As always we figured it out as we went along. We bought the furnace for $60 and we added on the temperature controller electronics ourselves. The crucible was about...
Disclaimer: this video was done by professionals Proceeds to nearly burn down garage
Stand the casting on end. So the muzzles up straight up. That way if u run out or material or u get shrinkage wen it cools, it can get cut off wen u clean it up
If u casting with a floating barrel tube in the mold. Y didnt u weld ribbs to the out side of the barrel tube to cast in rifleing, to make whar was callled a parrot gun…
a few years ago, i asked the SSAA how to build a cannon and i was told to make the liner from a Hendrikson walking beam if i wanted to use it on the range or i had to buy it from the foundry in Maryborough qld aust
What brass alloy did you use? Not all brass is of sufficient strength for cannons.
What material did you cast it into?
Whow I wouldn't let them near a lighter pair of di,,ys
Wow! This is amazing! I've been searching on and odd for a way to easily make relatively high quality molds for backyard aluminum casting for over a year now. This may be the solution I'm looking for!!!
When melting brass, ALWAYS do it outside. Brass is copper and zinc. Zinc will boil off, and zinc oxide is quite poisonous. (It is also that yellow stuff in your dross.) Bronze is copper and tin, and is much less poisonous. steve
Kind of sanded you use
Your honesty on showing the hole made me subscribe. Others wont show that. 👍👍
That is fairly alarming by how much bubbling you got out of that mold i would be worried that it might pop up a bit of metal and burn you real bad had that happen once before had the metal pop up to eye level i was wearing a mask but it still not good to see
Come to Holland. :-) Make canonns for Dutch Royal Navy. We fight tribes, we can win wars with old cannons. Probably no one wants you. Come to Holland to work, or send us cannons. To win food.
So goddamn funny watching you continue to pour molten metal into the inferno
Everyone needs a shop raccoon
Very fancy. Nice job..
Should be able to use lost pla so that yiu don't need to use the pipe anymore. And it would all be solid brass. However the pipe is probably easier. Would be interesting to see you guys try lost pla for a cannon
Algorithm boutta pick this one up.
you guys have to invest in meta Tarsul protection. look into foundry ppe...I wouldn't do any more work in sneakers and lace up boots. just a word of wisdom
OMG You guys are crazy. Calmly saying you want to put that out…… as the garage is about to burn down… Classic..LOL
Too funny! Also, cool stuff!
Would you be able to share the alloy of aluminum that you used for this cast by any chance? Brilliant work!
Come and take it
How can some one get a hold of you? Also how much would you charge to make an other of those chasing hammers?

Ya'll need a little CO2 fire extinguisher! 😁 Thay are just right for situations like this, i.e. well ventilated area, partially dischargeable without leaking, works well on wood fires, and no mess to clean up because it's an inert gas. Much safer, and cleaner than spraying water on super hot metal. What I use is actually just a small CO2 bottle with a pistol type valve, all it takes is just a quick puff and fires out, no mess.
It's very beautiful though.
Is the 3d printer file available for purchase? Thank you. Fun video.
For commercial or personal use?

I can't find the original STL files but here is the link to the fusion 360 file. Hope this helps. Enjoy! a360.co/3v9nS6Y
@@mastersofineptitude Thank you. Very elegant design indeed.
OK, But its hard to keep detail...!! *This technique limitation only. Thank you to share
Y'all are a SPECIAL kind of dangerous. Wow.
Friend good result. How many walls did you use in 3D printing?
Thanks! I know I made it as thin as my printer could handle but I don't recall the actual wall thickness. I wanna say 2 or 3 layers but thats just a guess
Have you done any other cast like this?
Sadly no! I would like to upgrade my setup and try it again tho at some point
What did you use dirt?
Casting (green) sand but there are a lot of options for your sand. Never tried dirt but it might work!
This is awesome I am doing this
The pipe cast in as a liner is an idea I got myself. Even just a thin one would greatly improve barrel life and strength.
Des professionnels... euh non, il y a un gros four certe mais pas de coordination entre les deux pour la coulée.
Was the final size the external or internal size of the printed mold?
That is a good questions. It would be the external of the mold since the pla is instantly vaporized but you also have to account for the shrinkage of the aluminum as it cools so I am not sure exactly how it mached up to the size of the mold.
DIY lava
HA! I LOVED IT WHEN YA CHUCKED IT INA POOL R.I.P. IS RIGHT LOVE YA DON'T GIVE UP
Have you ever done any follow up videos on this?
Want to but sadly not yet
Tame the raccoon. He shall become a bladesmith.
We are prof.... just kidding....
Wow this is awesome! great video
So it melts the plastic and mixes it with the plastic?
You need to put a vent at other end of mold to let air out pour till brass comes out the vent
It is surprisingly hard to find a video where the Bore is made also traditionally.
howdy! may i suggest leather chaps? a group from Makerfaire Bay Area last year suggested them to me and they work wonders. Also: cannons are awesome!!!
7:30 das geht nicht gut aus.
Professional? I can't imagine who in the hell would pay you to set their place on fire or to make that kind of mess!
I got an Armsport stainless steal barrel and gun carriage. but I got a Brocken wheel due to an earthquake. long boring story. would be good if we could make a complete working cannon.
Fire!! 🏃♀️ Run!!
