Crude Aluminum Casting Experiment (success)

Me trying a crude casting experiment with some left over 6061 aluminum.

It takes 2:56 for it to start melting, using a $20 MAPP gas torch.

Incase your wondering, that's water I'm pouring on it to cool it off.

Who is more the fool?

The guy the makes a bad video, or the moron that sits through all of it, just to waste more of his life complaining about it after it is over, because he was too stupid to read the info which could have saved him 10 minutes of time?

Just some random shape. I just wanted to see what would happen

i melted a dime til it was liquid and threw cold water at it and it jumped all over me

[hakachukai]

@SantiagoSernaAZ

That's because the water penetrated the liquid metal before it evaporated. When that happens, it evaporates so violently that it closely resembles an explosion. It also throws molten metal everywhere.

Could have saved 8 minutes of your life if you would have bothered to read the info on the video.
