- My mate was cleaning out his fathers shed and found this piece which wasn't working so thought lets give it to BigStack D. Apparently it was from the late 1950's and it definitely looked like an accident waiting to happen that's for sure. But not to worry its been neutralized and added to the stack . Now sit back relax and check out todays video and have a happy safe weekend and see you all next Friday😁👊.

HOW I 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.

1950's Mower Melt Down - Copper Brass Aluminum - ASMR Metal Melting - Trash To Treasure BigStackD - Розваги
Hey there again all you beautiful people how are you all this week? Great I hope. Today something interesting to melt down some type of mower from the 50s and it's certainly an accident waiting to happen as you can see. Not to worry all is good it's on the shelf now so check it out and enjoy today's video hopefully I'll see you all next Friday but most importantly have the best weekend you can😁👋🏻
Always glad to see new uploads
Best part of the week for years now! It's nearly 2 a.m. and I couldn't be happier!
Thanks bigstackD

Why don't you let the boys chase the parrots off of the lawn? 🦜🐕
Do you think it would be possible to pour a mit of copper or bronze in to a mold, let it cool down a bit but not completely solidify and the pour brass after it (and repeat a couple times) so they mix a bit but not completely? I think such an ingot could look cool.
Also, your timer for the dogs segment isn't accurate, your seconds are about 2 seconds long.
There's a lawnmower nerd weeping right now.
😂😂😂😂
That was a grinder/polisher mounted on its side. I doubt anyone tried to mow with it more than once. 😂
Well I am sad about the grinder. Could have restored that
There's always a lawnmower nerd weeping somewhere 😂
Me in a way
That mower had a grindstone to sharpen its own blades. Ingenious!
Came to say this
someone got the bright idea to turn the bench grinder into a lawn mower or the other way around, i agree that's ingenious!
My grandfather used an old sump pump motor to make one, because a friend of my uncle said he couldn’t do it. Only bad part was it was in the early ‘80’s and that thing was so damn heavy, it would take all your energy to do a couple passes. They lived in southeast Ohio and it is very hilly. Plus trying to find a long enough cord to run it for the whole yard was impossible. Plus the voltage drop was very noticeable about half way through the front yard. Which equaled more passes and having to use the gas mower anyway. But, grandpa proved he could do it.
This is great! I thought it looked homemade too but then searched and found that they were sold as a mower and grinder multi-tool in the mid to late 50's. The advert starts with "No toy but a sturdy efficient Power Unit..." and "does sawing, angle sawing, grooving, mitreing, rabbeting, mortising, drilling, rip fence, sanding", whilst mowing the lawn apparently.
Thanks for the smiles, have a safe weekend yourself, especially with that frozen lawn.
I'd take the -0.5 over +40 any day. At least when its cold you can layer and bundle up. Not much you can do to escape the heat
I predict in the next century that will become an increasingly popular opinion lol
Totally agreed! For me is over 40 degree too, and well I will relocate myself in a colder country at the end of this year. In my home country I cannot live anymore with this heat.
I will go to 40 to -40, wish me luck😅😂
Damn, I thought that lawn mower was pretty cool until I saw that BigSnackD! Chorizo and pepperoni on a double bacon cheeseburger with jalapeño?!?! What?! Looks so good.
Thank you for letting the centipede live. They aren't exactly photogenic but it didn't deserve to die.
Did I just see two aluminum bricks WITHOUT a dimple 😳
Indeed you did my friend, because they weren’t pure aluminium they were an aluminium alloy and probably had something else mixed with them at the factory to make the casing so they won’t have the same shrinkage as a block that’s almost pure aluminium if that makes sense👍🏻
My favourite part of your breakdowns is that you don't just take the big, easy metal off, you completely dismantle it. So satisfying to see
I worked at GMF in the early 70's and they made petrol mowers after WW2 but not many, their grinders and washing machine motors were their bread and butter I have never seen one of these but the serial number starting with a H means it was around 1950-1960 no later be careful of the capacitor as it is filled with PCB.
Man I remember when your display of metal tags was just a few. Now it looks like a museum display
I always assume Australia is a tropical climate and it blows my mind that there is an actual winter! It makes sense given where it is, im relation to the equator, but it still amazes me!
Cheers from Canada! I just showered and am tucking into bed after a long 10hr shift (4:15am here) THANKS FOR THE VID! 🤗
In South Africa there is already some heavy snow about 10cm thick I have heard and there might be snow in Joburg this winter which is rare here
I'm also Canadian and didn't realize it ever went below zero there.
Because of a few geographical features the temp’s get to about -4*C in the middle of winter but the day time temp on those days are from 7 to 15
It's a land if contrasts. Up north it can be 30 degree C+ days all year long. Where I am in a south eastern state, it got to -8C last week - and it's funny, because I thought to myself "well, that's nothing, think about those poor Canadians..."
@@MattExzy hahaha ya where I'm at, Southwestern Ontario, we tend to go to -25°C with wind chills of around -40 (when it's REALLY cold)
Sitting here in S/E Michigan enjoying my coffee and the video of my favorite creator. The one, the only BigstackD!! applause in the background, envy from the BigsnackD, and that tonne is getting closer and closer.
I always love a good copper melt!
It is a bit difficult to sit on the porch as the smoke from Canada has come down here in huge amounts for the 5th day in a row now with warnings to stay inside as its so bad.
Its tolerable right now with the temp at 65 f ( 18 C ) but wont be this afternoon when it hits 89 f ( 31.6 C ).
I hope the people near the fires have managed to get out of the way. It is strange that dozens of fires started within minutes and hours of each other with no lightning storms in the area!
I hope everyone has a great weekend and my fellow Americans have a fun and safe independence day on the 4th!
Well good luck with all the people over on that side of the planet, I I have no idea what’s happening in the world right now and I try to keep it that way as any news is normally bad news so I haven’t watched tv in years, I still keep up to date through UA-cam videos and stuff like that but I won’t watch the local or world news as it’s too depressing and as much as I might be interested in what’s happening with the rest of the world it’s always gonna make me worry about something I can’t control so as I say I just don’t watch it any more. But anyway my friend enjoy your coffee have have an awesome weekend👊🏻😁
@bigstackD I agree, I don't watch TV at all or listen to news. I get the straight story from people saying look at the fires that started on their weather satellite feed. Take care!
@@bigstackD I couldn't agree more! I haven't watched the news in about a decade unless something major has happened. That's about the only time you get news vs opinion . and odds are if something "big" is happening" something bigger is being overlooked
It needs to be a the museum for handmade lawnmowers. 😁😁😁😁😁
so glad you kept the timber handlebar.....what you had was a very common thing to see in the 50's....and a part of Aussie backyard history too.......a lot of creative people around after WW2 finished.....
AHHHHHHHHH best channel ever, and my FAV thing to do on a Fri night, spend time with ingot and bullion, D and relax. TY so much for sharing this. it truly is my therapy. TY.
👊🏻😁
The doggy timer always cracks me up. 🐶🥳🐕😆🤔
Hey! A lawnmower with a built-in blade sharpener! It doesn't get much more convenient than that 😅
Thats literally what it is
Wow, I had absolutely no idea it got that cold anywhere in Australia!
The nut that wouldn't come off was probably lefthand thread. You might have known that already. One side of the grinder will always have LH fasteners.
I was surprised you didn't keep that clicky power switch, just to play with 😄
Nice melt Big D! Getting sooooo close to 1,000! I don't think I'd be on my own by thinking that there will be a BIG melt to get over that 1,000kg.
Have a great weekend buddy.
Thanks once again my friend you are a champion. Yes I’m definitely tracking down something that’ll blow through the 1 t mark and I need to make sure it’s well over half a tonne whether it’s a motor or an engine or whatever the hell it will be. Thinking I’ll be tracking down a very old electric motor as that way I can pretty much guarantee it will be a lot of copper inside. Here’s hoping anyway👊🏻😁.
Old hydraulic pumps can be good, mostly brass
Imagine going back in time and showing the person who made this lawnmower this video... I think they would be genuinely impressed at their creation.
I meen you would have to explain the internet and how it works first, but still
I had to explain the internet to my uncle in 2017. By then he still never used a cell phone. You couldn't even explain texting to him like he was little kid but let him meet a single lady that likes texting more and that mofo turns into a super genius and learned really fast.
@@that1guy82 just gotta have that motivation I guess XD
It looks more like a mini concrete smoother than a mower... What a crazy piece of equipment... I have watched years 1, 2 and about halfway through year 3, and I've enjoyed each and every one of them. Thank you, and have a fabulous weekend yourself...
Your weekly video is the way I know it's Friday! 🙂
Always a great time to watch your Friday specials.
Finally somebody respectful enough to give a centipede warning. Thank you for that. Those things are devil spawn. Nothing should have that many legs. I've got a big phobia of those demons.
I always love watching you work. Great video today, as always. Interesting and creative use of that knife. It surely made less metal.dust than the cutting disc.
You lost me on that burger. I was with you to the bacon. Could even go the jalapenos. But pepperoni? And chorizo? I love pepperoni pizza and often make chorizo, potato and egg breakfast tacos (I live in South Texas) but on a bacon cheese burger?? LOL Different strokes for different folks. You're welcome to it. :)
Your melts/videos are so welcomed on a Friday night. very relaxing/satisfying. Grumpy/hungry doggos too. Salute to you mate!
An official kit to convert a bench grinder into a lawnmower.... never heard of that before! As for how it worked, you would angle the handle towards the roller to make it possible to push the mower, and the large disk at the top side of the grinder would act as a flywheel to stop the mower stalling when you were using it.
At last though, the worst kept secret on youtube is out - 1:24 you can see the brand of the 'mystery' beer ;)
As a loyal watcher from Germany who loves these videos he never knew he needed I wish you a great weekend!
👊🏻😁🍻🍻🍻
You are a good man. That centipede will never know how kind you are^^
The way you split the motor with the knife was genius. Great video
The bonus footage at the ends is really neat. It's just like one of those cool hidden tracks on the end of a CD when you think that there's nothing left and, bam, there's more, super fun!
I guess having a grinding wheel on top of your mower saves going back to the garage when you need to sharpen the blades 😂
I'm really enjoying the view of the living room. A lit wood stove is always cozy AF.
Wish bigstackD would make 3 videos a day.
It is (was) yours to do with what you wish but I bet there are any number of old tool refurbishing you tube channels out there that would have given anything to get a chance to bring that machine back to life.
Looks like it was a bench grinder / power unit that worked with different add on attachments. So very cool.
Probably could have traded it to them for more scrap copper than is contained within it, and they'd both come out ahead. I say realizing that this man doesn't need my business advice, since he's the one with the big channel. It's just a thought that your comment made me think.
I think it's great the respect you show for all living creatures.
It's currently rusted, but I imagine the handle used to be easily lowered to let it be pushed. It's hardly any different from the way mowers are made now. It just has more metal and less plastic polymer.
well i mean, currently it's been added to the Stack. i think it's a little different from most mowers now
Not sure what I like better. The casting or the food 😂
The trick with the iron blade for the motor core is brilliant!
Well, technically it is a precision tool. Fab vid as always!
New 65 inch TV there?? Nice!
Ingot is such a classic. He even sat there like a good boy for his bath....
Kiln! Heh heh heh!!! I assume when we pass the 1000Kgs, there will be some new fun projects???
I look forward to it.
Best.
Love you from India
I haven't watched you in a few months, for no particular reason other than not keeping up with my channel.
The new homestead looks really awesome.
There's a lawnmower nerd weeping right now.. Your weekly video is the way I know it's Friday! .
Has amazing badass new house and workshop, sweet loot chamber, epic decor...still uses old bricks and blocks lol love it!
Hello from Minnesota. Where -40F° below is normal day in the winter.
Hail from Canada! Love your content. I'm 99% convinced to get a forge. Lol. The wife thinks it's a great idea, she wants to melt stuff too. We both watch your content, enjoy the fact there's no talking, and it's funny. She even said she would hide snacks for me, (us), and have a beer with me, and buy me crazy socks! Best wife ever, and I mean that literally. Cheers mate!
Another COMPLETE Friday. Watched another awesome bigstackD video! Cannot get any better than that!
First its new, then its old and then its melted. Great video as always. 💪
Your videos are so enjoyable that I up-vote right off the get-go.
I am chuckling....frost in an north Iowa (U.S.) winter is warm. Muggy 86(F) degrees today. Thank you for some great video content.
Looks like Ingot and his brother really dig the Dog wash .😂😂
Good to see any new melt down By bigstackd.
I enjoy your videos. Set my alarm every Friday morning. Don’t want to miss out. Thanks
Fancy lawn mower for their fancy lawn
Ingot & Bullion are 2 spoilt pups. Fantastic 😁🇬🇧👍
Your snack "finds" reminds me of the old television series Mission Impossible. At the beginning of each episode, the leader of the Impossible Missions Force wanders around until he locates a secretly-placed tape player, turns it on, and listens to his orders. In the 1990s, a few episodes of a Mission Impossible reboot were filmed in Australia.
Cheers to you as well sir🎉. Thanks for the new vid.
That weather looks wonderful.
Awesome video nice copper bar and aluminum bar's thanks for sharing bigstackd
whaching these videos are so satisfying much love the you keep up the good work
Always enjoy watch your video Dion 😀
Well now I feel all relaxed! Thank you👍🇨🇦
A few nice bars and inching closer to the gole. Thanks for sharing with us.
This would have 100M views if it was a restoration project. Literally head-in-hands.
😂😂 was just waiting on that day u r using the Machete... Looks pretty simple, less loudy and messy too.
That Burger will burn 2 times I think...😅😅
Omg I’m from Hawai’i and it’s freaking hot over here. I wish over here is cold like there. And I love waTching ur videos bro. Mahalo and Aloha to you and your family

Cheers from Midwest
And that is tank top weather lol
I live in Alabama and right now....We would LOVE some cold air to come this way. BTW that's a nice piece of scrap but we used to use that very thing growing up to cut the grass. I remember those days.... GWAD i'm OLD LOL. Keep 'em coming! Love them all! P.S Give the boys a treat for me please 🙂
Just started watching it. 2:20 i like the yellow impact adjuster👍😄
O.O it's an antique bench grinder turned into a lawn mower? huh, learn something new every day lol.
Cool bars buddy!
That contrivance was cobbled from a repurposed bench grinder and some bed rail! LOL
Still pretty neat! You could sharpen the blades right on it!
Parrots you say? Have you tried leading them away from your property, say... with a trail of crackers? LMAO
Thanx for a great vid D!
Ficou sensacional, sempre ver seus vídeos está de parabéns 👏👏👏👏
Nice relaxing video by the way 😊
What is up brother from the imperial county California 👍👍🇺🇲🇺🇲
I love how dog seconds are so much longer than people seconds.
I really enjoy your videos keep up the great work good day from Stockton California
Last week you did 2.5Kgs, and this week you did 2.5Kgs, but only added 4kgs to the total. You're making extra work for yourself to get to the tonne!
Another excellent video from beginning to end...really mows down the competition. 😁
Today's #bigsnackD looked especially delicious, and the boys were their usual charming selves.
Big fan ...in background
Wow, nice find with the knive.
Awesome as usual brother
“Precision tools” are my favorite to use… 😜👍🏼
That was a cool "cush" noise..when you iced it. lol and yeah, the porous holes on the bottom of ingots bugs the hell out of me. I have to do a lot of grinding/sanding to get a smooth surface. If you ever figure out a cure. I'll be writing it down. Watchin every week. Thumbs up for BigstackD's Friday vids.
I want one of those big burgers. Gorgeous. 🎉
Great video watching from the U.K.
That would have been an awesome 😎😎😎😎 piece for your shop, however cool 😎😎 taredown nice bars mate
My grandfather had one, here in the states it was called tecnico electric mower.
That burger sounds and looks good!!!
That's some vintage 1940s thinking there. "Bone it boss"
That bigsnackD looks delicious! Ima gonna have to try that!
always good to see the boys
Pretty cool seeing you try the machete hack on those stators. Great video, as always!
Top...cedo estamos pôr aqui ... vídeo legal!!!
