DIY induction heater that can BOIL STEEL 

Great job on hitting 5 million subscribers Kevin 😊

PagMan congrats!

Yes YES IT DOES give off ultraviolet light

You should make X-ray goggles. I was at the dentist and had to get some x-rays done and I was thinking about how the machine they used almost looked like a scope for looking through. Then I thought so what if you got two of them and made goggles that can take a x-ray scan of an object and then display it on a screen in-front of your eyes. Of course I am not sure about any of the logic behind any of this but I thought if anyone could make it happen it would be you. Hope you see this and maybe see if its logically possible to do. Thank you for the Awesome videos!

Hi Louis!

A lot of knife makers use induction heaters for knives since they don't need large furnaces to heat up the (relatively) smaller pieces of metal they work with. Gas operated heaters and torches also need to be refueled eventually so it is a bit more economic in the long run.

​@@nacnudsnevets981 To add to this - it's a lot more accurate in terms of temperature and repeatability. I work for a very large manufacturing company and you can heat treat accurately and consistently with a small induction heater. If you shape the coils you can also consistently get a variety of hardnesses on the same part (strong flexible tang and a very hard knife edge).

I've thought about finding ways to cast steel but every furnace I found ended up being ungodly expensive. Maybe this would be good to have. The problem is where to find one 😂

Blacksmiths use induction heaters for ages.

The term is induction forge. It is a little too specialized to fully replace fire, but is still useful. It has been a thing for a while.

Thats to prevent the fans from pulling in heated air into the PC board. I ordered a pre-built one and the video i watched said to do this. Of course it wont be complete. Ill also need to build the water coolant system and find a way to power it. I was thinking with a bunch of 20 amp laptop batteries, and wire the circuit so you can switch breakers on and off to add volts. My bench power supply aint gonna power this monster. You can actually make a heater for your home by just spinning a magnet near a copper coil, and hookup the coil to a radiator with a fan. Directly convert kinetic energy to heat energy on the fly, and its even more efficient than resistance wire.

It is, but you are somewhat shape limited.

Well, he does make sure that there are no spiders in his gloves lol

3rd priority according to the podcast

Yeah! That was really cool when he dropped it in the pool. I never expected it to glow for that long, when it got under water. But the leidenfrost effect was indeed creating a layer of steam around the molten steel, preventing the water to get much contact with it and cool it down quickly.

This guy steels

Thankfully, a magnesium fire is only such as long as it burns magnesium, even if you drop it in the middle of a forest the only thing you need to do to prevent a wildfire is to control the regular plant matter fires it ignites until it burns out.

This is great information! Science!

I wonder if pure oxygen would make it burn even brighter?

@@1978garfield Believe it or not, when magnesium burns it actually does so with such destruction that it even rips the oxygen off of water vapor in the air! That only adds to the brightness of the reaction.

A wise mechanic said to buy cheap tools and then replace them with good tools if/when they break. This is the quickest and cheapest way to figure out what tools need to be good and what tools can be very cheap. It also comes down to how often you use the tool. A homeowner might be completely fine with a 10 dollar claw hammer whereas a finish carpenter should probably spend a few dollars more because his livelihood and comfort depend on using something that gets the job done quickly and consistently.

@@tommytheshimigami That would explain a lot.

A much more accurate title

Great information

This is true, but the galvanic corrosion only happens if the two different metals are in contact with the water and in contact with each other, making an electrically conductive connection to each other. The chemical reaction is basically a short-circuited battery - the higher the difference in electronegativity (aka reduction potential) between the two metals, the faster the reaction will be, and having some kind of electrolyte (any dissolved salts) in the water will accelerate the reaction too, which is why this kind of galvanic corrosion is faster in sea water than in fresh water. You can however stop it happening by having an insulating layer between the two different metals, so they cannot make an electrical connection with each other. So for example in this case with water running through copper tube and an aluminium heatsink block, all you would need is some rubber or plastic tubing taking the water between them, so the water can still flow through both but without the copper and aluminium parts touching each other. Or another example in my house - the rising water main is old iron piping, much thicker than more modern copper pipe. But some years ago, part of it had to be replaced, so the plumber had to connect a copper pipe to the iron pipe. If they had been directly connected, galvanic corrosion would have been a problem, accelerating the corrosion of the iron pipe. But a plastic adapter was used to make the connection, with more plastic (PTFE tape) to make the connection watertight. This layer of plastic insulation has the bonus prize of blocking the electrochemical reaction, so galvanic corrosion between the iron and copper can't happen. One interesting application of this kind of corrosion is in the "flameless ration heaters" in military ration packs, aka MREs. These are just a porous packet (like an overgrown tea bag) filled with a mixture of salt and some metal granules. The instructions tell you to put this in a plastic bag alongside the pouch containing the food and add some water, enough to soak the packet. This obviously dissolves the salt to make an electrolyte solution. But this is where it gets really clever: The metal granules are an alloy of mostly magnesium with a few percent of iron mixed in. When this comes into contact with the salt water electrolyte, a galvanic corrosion reaction happens - each individual piece of alloy becomes a short-circuited battery. Since there is a large difference in reduction potential between magnesium and iron, the reaction is fast and generates a lot of heat, easily enough to boil the water and heat up the pouch of food. The net reaction is actually oxidation of the magnesium component of the alloy by the water, with the iron and salt acting as catalysts, speeding it up. So one product is magnesium oxide, the other is hydrogen gas. Which is why you are not allowed to use flameless ration heaters on aircraft - the hydrogen released could build up inside the cabin (especially with a whole lot of people using them at the same time), and it only takes as little as 5% hydrogen by volume mixed with air to cause an explosion if it finds an ignition source.
