    Oh man these weeks are just flying by, Today is a pretty straightforward melt where I find a mini fridge in the scrap bin and take the compressor and when my friend saw it he donated an old one he had lying around👌🏻. There was a combination of copper and aluminium in this video so I just mix it all together to make a beautiful golden aluminium bronze. Now I didn’t add much to the stack this week but I promise you I’ll make up for it next week👍🏻😁. Most importantly everybody have yourselves an awesome weekend, take care BSafe and see you all soon👋🏻.

    You ask for feedback a lot and I've always wanted to offer mine, but it took some time to articulate it. I've been watching your channel for a while and I finally realized what exactly I like about it. It's the changes. When the gas changes to fire; when the metal turns molten; when the liquid turns to an ingot; when the ice turns to steam; when the ice turns to shards as you smash it; when that nice lump of metal turns into a mirror. All those points where something becomes something else. I always get a kick out of watching a piece of aluminum disappear into the crucible. Add your knack for editing the whole thing like a highlight reel of the process and some doggie interludes and you just have a perfect recipe that you reproduce really well. Stick with that and show me those pretty changes and I'm gonna stay glued to this channel. Cheers big ears.

    Just stumbled across your page and immediately subscribed. I have been doing this in South Wales UK for about 3yrs, no where near on the scale and quality set up that you have though. People think I am nuts when I take the stuff they throw away in skips and strip it all down, I usually make on average £100 a month for about 3hrs work, but I enjoy the process of actually repairing somethings and handing them out to people who need them, and if they are beyond saving, so many parts can be re-used or scrapped for money, I am happy that others carry on throwing them away.
    Look forward to getting some ideas from your older videos.

      But seems like alot of work and money invested in tools for very little. Copper at 5 bucks per pound but costs 4 bucks plus time to clean it that much. I seperate the best i can and take to a scrap yard. Not sure if melting and cleaning is really worth it.

    Please remember that the refrigerant R410A has a global warming potential of 2,000 times that of carbon dioxide. Suppose it doesn't matter if the refrigeration is already leaked out, but it should be captured if possible. I believe R12, found an older refrigerators, has a global warming potential of 6,000 times carbon dioxide.

      When I got the fridge out of the dumpster there was damage to the back of it so I’m assuming the gas leaked out when they threw it in to the dumpster, the other piece my friend brought over had already been degassed. The fines in Australia are quite large if you get caught releasing the gas into the atmosphere so that’s something I would never do. What you need to do in Australia if you want to save money on degassing is when we have hard waste you put your fridges out on your verge for the council to pick up but before they pick up the fridge they send a company around to degas all the fridges and once They’ve done that you simply remove what you want before they come and get the fridge the next day👍🏻, That way you get it degassed for free and get to keep all the copper from it. That’s what I normally do
