I loved making this so much I have invested in some more bismuth and some equipment, So there will be more videos! I have done my research and know what to do next!
I know this is not motorcycle related but I do make all sorts of videos. If it is not up your street please feel free to skip. However, if you like it SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON! 👍

I am not generally interested in this content, but WOW. I watched it all the way through. Absolutely stunning metal 👍👍👍👍

holy cow that's incredible looking !

[HippoDrones]

That is really cool, so awesome seeing the different shapes, and with those couple of longer one, it's very alien almost, like something from the Expanse!

[firblad]

As i work with metals, this is so beautiful! I wonder what mounting it in epoxy, polishing and etching would reveal? Im betting the microstructure would be absolutely insane. Grain size analysis would tell you how its all put together nicely :)

At some point in the future it will be "I'm going to cast a youtube play button from Bismuth"
Casting a Spicy channel logo would be good as well.

Am not gonna lie that was as interesting as I expected from a spicy video. Cant wait to see what you do next. Maybe divvy gets some bling lmao

[Odomas]

That tear drop shaped piece @11:57 would make a stunning pendant.
Have you considered making some jewellery with it? It would be a change from your usual metal works but would be canny awesome 👍🏻😎

[lakegeneva]

You could probably make totally random and unique jewellery out of that. Would just need to find a way to set them

[altypeRR]

Like button suitably smashed. That’s so cool.

[ConfusedRaccoon]

Could you do me a fat favour my old chum bucket. Melt some down in a taller container, then dip a necklace or a sink plug chain into it and see if you can make a... well a necklace or a charm thingy. Could you also make a small frame, dip it and have it solidify around the frame?
If so I think I may have to buy some.

[JamesBrown-ngxh]

That's so cool man that's mad 👍

[RichartEgli]

Nice video. I can give some expert tipps if u want "step up" the crystals.

stainless steel melting pot
stainless steel crystalization BOWL without handle
Use a lot of rockwool for insulation!!! NO SAND OR ALU FOIL !!!
Only use stainless steel bowls ;never ever ceramic or teflon coated
at least 5 kilo material = a full 0.5 liter bowl

good luck and stay safe

[BordersBasher]

Spicy that's epic, do you think you could coat things in the Bismuth? Obviously metals and not plastics haha. Fab colours though.

[bmxs]

Great end to a stressfull day who said us discordians were nerdy

[philhunt]

Nothing is a fail when you're you keep making the same mistakes time and time again

[aaronnelson]

Completely unrelated spicy but do you still want old disc brakes etc for clock work? I’ve got 2 front and a rear of an ER6N
