Almost Perfect Restoration

Hello people,

Who would have thought that this rusted Pickaxe would one day become a shining sword?
The steel of this mighty mining tool is so hard that I needed a giant 25-pound hammer, the blows of which made the ground tremble.


So less words more action,
enjoy watching

How you doing people?
This is Scimitar, or to be correct curved Arab sword.

I used rusty U8A steel strip, letter "A" means that it's high quality (ultra pure) 0,8% carbon steel.
Usually such steel is used for very sharp tools and is pretty rare to find, by the way this is the best steel I've ever worked with.


So grab something sweet or salty and enjoy watching the video :)

Sincerely

As you may have guessed, this is also an M24 hex nut for that big bolt i made before.
So we have a complete set:
Brass M24 Hex Nut & Bolt and Huge Bronze Wrench.


By the way, that steel wrench which I used for the bronze casting was made in Bulgaria and is quite rare.

What we see here is Malachite ore or Copper carbonate.
it is a Natural resource and a source of copper, the largest deposits located in Congo.
This malachite pieces can be converted into metallic copper through a reduction process,
which will be shown in video.
This is an ancient process that our ancestors used to extract metallic copper, they used bellows for air supply and critical heating and bone meal for smelting.

If you like such project about malachite ore pls share this video and comment, and I'll do more...

A week ago I found a big rusty wrench on a scrap waste pile, restored it and painted yellow.
I never seen such good quality wrenches, the steel is so good so i decide to cast it in copper ( bronze )


Btw, this wrench just perfectly fits on the m24 hex bolt I recently made,
but guess what else is missing?

Hello People,

A few days ago I found a big rusty bolt on the road,
Then I thought, what if I make an even bigger one but out of scrap trash?

For such big hex bolt I had to order a thread cutting tool and a locking device separately.
So I decide to make an m24 bolt.

Btw it is still without hex nut...

I'm taking break from metal casting,
because i really enjoy to work with clay...i cant say for sure which one i love more.
Just a moment ago this Tower was just a pile of red clay lying somewhere in quarry.
When clay is properly heated to critical temperatures it becomes Ceramic, It
acquires great hardness and changing it's color and structure.

On start 1st clay was brown and after furnace became red, the second one was like grey and became beige

Biggest Wrecking balls weight is 5400 kg
But have you ever seen a wrecking ball exactly 6000 times smaller?
This copper demolish ball weight is exactly 900 gram but not less destructive!
It can easily destroy a mini brick tower, or....fall on a leg from a height and it will be an unforgettable impression.

Enjoy Watching
