I shredded and melted down over 3000 soda cans. I had to go to a very special place to melt these down as it was a MASSIVE amount of aluminum. This took over 3 days to complete.

  • nice recycling, just one question: why separate the cans to mix them after grinding?

    Real crime is filling up a RS6 with soda cans
  • Dumps all cans on ground, picks them up with a mini front loader, then proceeds to pick them all up again by hand. 👏🏼

    In Michigan in the United States, there are recycling machines in nearly every grocery store. When I worked at one of my local stores, I had the task of emptying out the hopper when it got too full. You get a little bit of money for each can returned. So when I read the title of this video, I instinctively thought to myself “Oh cool. He got $300.”

    Awesome! Was not expecting the factory forge. I thought it would be like you're old videos with you big home forge. I was confused on why you were loading everything back into the car.

    Сначало отсортировал банки, потом перемолол и свалил в одну кучу. Гениально! Я просто похлопаю👏

    The whole time I was thinking, “cut soda cans are so sharp, I’m glad he wore gloves.” Man this was cool! I wish I had the cool tools to play around with.

    The shredding machines you have are impressive. I think the breakage (and all the dross) shows why people say cans are a bad source for casting aluminum.

    This guys still in the red after spending 25k on those machines

    This was a very cool different style of video, well done!👏🔥

    Hey Ben!! Welcome back.. That was a great video! Wish it was longer and heard your voice again.. Don’t give up on us 😄🍻👍

    I dont have the money to afford one of those industrial shredders, so i took it another route. I reversed engineered a micro shredder to use for those cans. Truly works great, the trick is that the teeth arent as big for obvious reasons, and so i gotta maintain some pressure on the cans so they dont just keep squirming around, which is only an issue when the pile gets low.
  • @RyRyWags
    That's pretty cool to see the process! 👍🙂
  • @drewjn
    Aside from storage and transport, which is understandable, was there a reason to grind the cans to that consistency? Considering you will get slag regardless, was curious if there were other reasons.
  • @mrpugster
    Nice video man. The sand casting seemed like it took a lot of effort for the foundry guys, did they want to do it that way for something to film or is that the preferred way when dealing with large amounts of aluminiun?

    Turning trash into treasure, so inspiring! 💪🌟

  • @MuzikBike
    Wouldn't shredding the cans expose more metal surface area, resulting in more of the aluminium being oxidised than if they were melted whole?
