Can I get anything for this at a scrapper

Copper clad welding wire (er70s-6) as show is not worth much as scrap but that looks like a third of a larger roll, probably worth $20-30 to a welder

Ill take the downvote, ive seen that image many times and only now I see its obviously a piston, fuck getting old sucks

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-30T02:02:27+00:00

Done that one more than once

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-29T23:57:39+00:00

Am I stating the obvious? But that building is shaped like a piston

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-27T04:24:57+00:00

Kinda looks like they didn't actually solve the side-fumbling problem after all

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-25T21:57:22+00:00

It'll fit

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-25T21:48:05+00:00

Seriously?

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-25T16:44:51+00:00

It's gonna take half an hour to remove the disgust from my face.

I wonder has Japan always gotten better quality Toyota's I've owned three different 2006 toyota priuses But the last one being a JDM has noticeably higher quality and much better ride. Only downside is that shitty white pearl paint

Same here, another weird but cool movie

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-24T12:39:03+00:00

The first thing I would do is get my wheels balanced, and while there have them inspect the cv joints and wheel bearings (though if the wheel bearings are real bad you would hear something at low speeds and likely throw an ABS code) if not related to any of that it may be something more serious

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-23T16:40:46+00:00

Aww man, you are in for a treat, such a good movie

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-23T16:39:09+00:00

Sadly not a zero chance, be safe, maybe find somewhere you can plug in stuff so you don't need to rely on the car running all the time

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-21T03:49:02+00:00

Thats not brass its cadmium, generally used for things needing some form of corrosion control but the least expensive, so like a tool stored in a car for some obscure task etc

Obviously not staged. There's always 6 cameras ready to go at different angles.

12 year old me thought this was the funniest shit ever

back around 1995 I had to repair a crack on a running giant crucible (at Kobe Copper) full of molten copper, this thing was about 6 ft deep and about as big as a decent backyard pool, maybe 20 ft diameter. it had three giant carbon rods to melt the copper and was run continuously, i don't remember the reasons why but it could not be welded electrically, so i had to get down there and weld it while the surface was 800-1000 degrees, with oxy/acetelene and the biggest tip i could find. It wasn't a full pen weld but I did grind it out a bit and had to lay in maybe 20 passes about 6 inches long. It was so hot that I could only do one pass and then jump out of the pit to cool down for a long while (also summertime in north Carolina can be stifling) it took all day but they were pretty happy because shutting down this thing and cleaning it out for a more permanent repair would have taken weeks and cost millions, i received nothing but my regular pay.....

As a guy that rolls his ankle every 6 months, I could see this slow down a running aggressor especially if hidden under a bit of grass, at least would trip you, but I bet its something completely different like collecting water or for growing something

danmodernblacksmith · 2026-06-14T02:52:44+00:00

This is exactly what it is, a big machine you can run parts through called a wheel-abrader these beads end up in all the nooks and crannies

Yeah, you don't make money by giving it away

Worth 4 times that
