I’ve had multiple multiple RU-vid accounts of my own over the past decade but one thing stays constant I always come back to watch Mr. And Mrs. Sreetips work nothing short of magic. God bless them both :)
Your excitement after every pour or silver cell harvest is contagious. I can hear in your voice when you start to get excited and mesmorized. I absolutely get the same rush just from watching. A religious viewer of the channel - THANK YOU!
I can't think of a better way to start my day than with a gold melt pour-a-thon 😮❤ That loaf with the symmetrical pour lines from the center outwards was mind-bending. Great video, sir. Thank you for the eye candy 🤩
Yes. I agree. Even the gold dealer boys don't take the time to keep th heat flowing over the cast or the pour ... I totally love your technique! .. just absolutely beautiful
I like seeing the progress in your style this way back to back. At first you filter washed the gold mud and just melted that into bars, mitigating contamination with borax. Then you can see where you just washed the mud and then melted it. There are other small techniques you go through along the way. Thanks as always, love learning from you and your family.
WOW!!! I just watched you pour 300,000$ dollars worth of gold in that video!! At current spot price that is.. That's an amazing amount of gold just in your backyard and garage shop. I can't even imagine how much pure and cement silver you have. So cool!
Man, those large bars are a beast to pour. Now I understand why there’s hinged holders for crucibles. Largest I’ve done was a 2.5ozt, and that was a pain to get to a happy bar. I really need to get something to blast a flame on my mold. Thank you.
Hello Mrs and Mr Sreetips.. Early Sunday morning here in Norway winterland..much snow.. almost 1 meter. So nice you provide us with a clip from the finest woman and man on RU-vid 🌷🌷 Remember that...Think many subscribers is agree with me on that🎸🔥❤️ God bless you🌷🌷
Wow! Even though pure gold is mesmerizing by itself, it is your expertise and artistry what make these videos an absolute pleasure to watch. Thanks for the awesome content, Mr sreetips
I'm just as amazed at the results from each pour. The mega bar is awesome 😎👍😂. And from fellow DDG Navy survivors. I'm very happy that you have done so well with your life and hobby. I wish you and family all the best. And, yes, she is beautiful and you should be proud.
LOVE..PASSION..HARD WORK..MANY OF US HAVE SO MUCH TO LEARN.. THIS CANAL START IN THE LOVE OF GOLD AND SILVER...A HOBBY....SAY HELLO TO YOU LOVE ONE MR SREETIPS🌷🌷🌷🌷GOD BLESS YOU ALL🌷🌷🌷🌷
Это очень большая проделанная работа, много проб и ошибок. От первых кривых небольших слитков до огромных восхитительных банковских слитков, это колоссальная не легкая работа. Успехов вам. Возможно в скором времени увидем слитки из палладия и платины, что ещё на много сложнее, но Вам целеустремленному человеку, это по плечу.
Thanks so much!!! Got my first oz refined scrap to pure gold !! And im out of semi refined silver from scrap to feed my silver cell.. about to make my first harvest of pure 999 crystals!! I used the video on converting a computer power source to drive the cell. Gratitude. To all those dreaming.. i was broke broken and without direction a year ago. Found my first scrap at a grage sale. Found Sree and some other teachers and FOCUSED. Its been bit by bit and often i pay the 90% scrap rate on 1 gram or 2 . But now i have capitol to buy larger amounts and grow my horde . You can do it also. Focus As above so below As below so above
What did I learn today? Use a stock pot for my new torch stand....been trying to solve that variable for months ..nty again sir Tbs sixfigureskibum here
I would really love to see a bar done with the center fuse or a vacuum cast I would like to see I need a casting machine out of a bicycle wheel and use it as a center fuse maybe you can make yourself something like that you'll be amazed how different the mold will look
I wish i had the time and space to invest into refining precious metals... And watching you run a silver cell, i was wondering if there was a way to do that with the gold as well, since gold is a great conductor. @Streetips, you should do a video on that!
After you burn off the other metals with the nitric, you have to melt the gold using aquaregia (hydrochloric/sulfuric mix) which helps burn off any other metals in the gold, so you can participate the gold out of the aquaregia using sodium metabisuplhate...
In gold smelting, borax is added so that borates become incorporated in refining flux formulations which dissolves metal oxides. It's all about increasing gold recovery rates and also protecting your equipment and vessels over the long term. Generally you can melt Gold, Silver, Aluminium, Brass, Copper and most other metals much faster by using Borax powder
After watching all these pours, I wonder what your least favorite method of melting is. I think the induction method was possibly the most awkward even though it's probably the most economical?🤔
you can also sell gold in different shapes. Like granules (at 18:05), round shape (like coins, 43:20 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FgUIuKTMSEU.html ) or rectangle ( like ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OJ-tw9XTyPY.html ) .
Hi, to get a smoother finish on the bars of gold would it help to oil the inside of the molds before heating to get a fresh lining of carbon down. Just an idea. cheers
You know whoever buys from this guy just stopped checking the purity at some point, only weighs it in. PS crazy that flux keeps it from sticking to the crucible but glues it to the mold.
Can you plz enlighten me a bit? you have a flask with some chemical, what is it? is that straight-up ore in the filter? youre not using lead or litharge why? It seems like youre going straight to the cupelling phase, did you first fire it in a crucible? if so then what did your flux charge consist of?
Chemical = aqua regia. I work with karat scrap, never worked with ore. I keep lead out of my processes because lead, even in trace amounts, ruins the malleability and ductility of gold. I’ve never used a cupel, that’s an assay technique, I’m a refiner, not a miner. I don’t fire until the final step when the gold has been refined to high purity and I’m ready to melt it and pour an ingot. I use straight borax to keep the gold from sticking to the melt dish and help it flow into a central mass. Flux means “flow”.
There’s no need. The side are tapered to allow the gold to fall out easily, unless a bunch of molten borax gets poured with the gold and glues it into the mold.
Sorry, I’m not wanting to trade my gold, for paper dollars. I went to great pains to convert my paper into metals. Turning it back into paper, that’s declining in value, would be a bad move. Soon there will be many, like you, who have come to realize, that storing your wealth in stacks of paper, is a bad idea. Because, as much as I hate to admit it, cash is trash. Gold and silver are real money, since biblical times.
I haven’t had a real job in many years. But the work I do, I want to get paid in gold and silver. That is my “profit” because cash is trash. What I can’t figure out is why most accept payment in, and slave at jobs for, paper dollars that can be printed “without limit”, out of thin air. There’s only one answer; insanity.
Makes me want to go back to kindergarten and change my answer to the ole "what do you want to do when you grow up?" querry. Haven't the slightest clue what my answer was but it wasn' t this cool. stay golden pony boy.........
Hey Navy how's it going hypothetical question.I a guy had a bunch of old war nickels whats the most economical way to extract the silver, I saw a clip that said it's 17 nickels per ounce cant remember if it was troy ounces.
There are refiners who will do it for you. I think Elemetal Direct will do it. But you must have an account. There are folks on goldrefiningforum.com that may be able to help you. I don’t refine other peoples material. Only stuff that my wife and I find at local sales.
According to usmint.gov, the size of a standard gold bar: 7 inches x 3 and 5/8 inches x 1 and 3/4 inches. Weight of a standard gold bar: approximately 400 ounces or 27.5 pounds.
@@sreetips I thoroughly agree. The US will be lucky if the BRICS nations don't become the default world reserve currency. This is why we all need to get out and get all our friends to vote. I am disgusted with the current administration
I’ve never written any such letter. But the refiner I sell to always shoots my gold with XRF to determine purity for my payment. Comes back three nines fine every time.
@sreetips I like the idea of keeping it while pouring with the whole furnace, caught me off guard and I thought the crucible was going to fall out , I scrapped junk electronics a few years ago for a few years, kinda got sidetracked, I don't want to lose what I think I might have in weight, quit job a month ago, now I'm getting the copper out of most of my junk I got processed looking better, so you've been a excellent guide, estimates are according to Google OUNCES of gold and silver in scrap electronics that is correct Considering the type of scrap and the amount of precious metals it took to manufacture the scrap this amount went to the consumer of course, I've probably processed a couple tons as a hobby kept me busy and learned a load about electronics, it looks like the best way is with electrolysis
