HOW TO 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.

I didn't know a wire like that existed, so I looked it up with a quick web search. This five-conductor cable may have been used for powering mining equipment or other heavy industrial machinery, using a three-phase power system with both a neutral and a ground. Seems like this is a pretty standard type, several companies offer info pages for similar cables on their websites.

It looks like either a 120 or 150mm^2 'four-core-and-earth' cable, and they are used for running 3-phase stuff like you said, or to run a large array of single-phase loads on one cable. If you keep going bigger the cores will become their own separate cables before long due to size and weight (I'd say this is near the limits of a 4C+E cable). The mains cables that supply buildings have gone up to 300 or 400mm in my experience and they definitely go a lot bigger than that.

@joshuawerner4376 2 жыл бұрын

Stuff like this runs shovels and draglines. Pulling it by hand sucks and large enough sections of it has to be dragged by pickups or support equipment. When it fails it usually blows up. Like molten copper spraying is all directions. If We've got thousands of feet of this stuff all over the mine site and lots of it that is waiting to be repaired or hauled off.

@steveaubinofangers7391 2 жыл бұрын

Soo many cables just like that run up 3 separate electrical runs in the bow tower in Calgary Alberta Canada. The outer copper shielded cables with the cork insulation have a much higher temperature and fire rating the the standard steel protection with rubber insulation. It's in towers as fire systems and any other safety systems like elevator power etc...

I enjoy watching your channel, and I love that your dogs are "Ingot" and "Bullion." For future reference, you can set the "tare" weight of your container before weighing the material so you don't have to try to keep all those loose items from falling on the floor. Alternately, you can place the empty container on the scale and "zero" the scale so it will ignore the container weight when weighing.

He usually does. I think putting the copper on the scale by itself was for dramatic effect.

I have to wonder what an archaeologist would say if they dug up your hoard there. Probably something like "We're not sure why this man hoarded all of these objects made of various metals and alloys, or why they were created. There's a possibility of some strong ritualistic purpose, as dating shows these objects were created over a span of 5 years with an almost clockwork-like punctuality suggesting a rigid 7-day schedule. Truly we can say this was a man of some importance, as the resources and effort required to create these objects - many of which are similar to artifacts found in other cultures - would be enormous. It is not beyond reason this man was a king among his people, to hoard such a wealth of rare and valuable resources that our forebears could have used to fight the machine uprising suggests one of no small influence."

in my last project last year , someone screwed up royally and didn't check the cable sizing specs properly resulting in a flashover incident during commissioning. A total review revealed more than one system had wrongly sized cables , they were as thick as these. Result was 15km of brand new, just pulled cables had to be ripped out from all the trenches , ducts, some were buried and condemned as there was no way to take them out. Repull all cables through even longer length as they had to reroute. The lengths that could be recovered were sold as scrap for close close USD300k. Major FUBAR

The worst part was the snow knocking trees down left and right all over the area all morning. We had a 70ft pine tree fall down right into our back yard on the fence and onto the house. We got lucky - no structural damage, but I've been wrestling with it for the past week with a pole saw and chain saw, fixing the fence, etc.. Biggest PITA as a homeowner yet. Cheers!

I honestly believe this is one of the best channels I've seen in a long time, it really is interesting and soothing to see how and what you do each week. Will we get an update on what you have and how much it's all worth? Would be interesting to see exactly what you've put on the stack over the last five years.

disclosing the overall value might be a bad idea though

@MandrakeDCR 2 жыл бұрын

@@chopshops He discloses it pretty regularly, so I don't think it's an issue. He does a breakdown of propane cost vs. how much he gets at the end, and what you would actually be left with in profit, if any. Occasionally at the end of the video when he shows 'the shelf' he shows an estimated value. That's one of his other great contrasts to some of the other smelting channels... he takes a little time to actually show what you end up with at the end of the day. :)

Andrew Edmonds hit me up on my email and I’ll send ya a discount link on a devil forge Furnace matey they are free postage world wide And there a shit load better than the Chinese ripoff furnaces flooding the market 👍🏻 bigstackddddd@mail.com

@MandrakeDCR 2 жыл бұрын

@Andrew Edmonds Indeed, bigstackD is right about the forges, and if you want really fantastic starter steel for making knives (and honestly - good steel overall) just go to the scrapyard with a cutting tool, and get you some old chevy leaf springs. Cheap and easy and lots of it. Although these furnaces are more for smelting, Devil-Forge has some seriously awesome and great priced blacksmith forges. I'm sure his discount would work on any of those as well if you are focused on Knife / blade smithing. I've been an amateur knife maker for decades. It is a lot of fun for sure, and one of the reasons I love this channel. Kind of an associated hobby I'm always just on the cusp of doing myself. lol

I saw you switch to a reciprocating saw from the grinder in this video and wondered if you have a cordless band saw? It might be a handy tool to have around if you don’t already own one. Just thought. Keep up the great work!
