Professor Shark posted:I liked the silver kid Johnnie Walker. One of my favorite exchanges was when one of the buyers of a silver ingot he made complained about it looking like a piece of poo poo. Around the same time, Johnnie Walker posted videos of his process, involving melting silver containing junk in a crucible on his porch with a handheld torch, eyeballing the purity by tossing bits and pieces in, and leaving scorch marks all over his landlord's patio. He would then beat the resulting mass with a hammer on his concrete basement floor, and go at it with a power drill to sand it and manage to sand himself as much as the silver. After seeing his videos, the buyer simply posted that he now understood why his silver looked like poo poo.

SumYungGui posted:Also failing to understand how purity worked. Going from memory but I'm pretty sure something along the lines of 'All I need to do to make 99.999999 silver is keep adding this silver I have here and the purity will get to where it needs to be' came out of his mouth during his YouTube heroics. Yup, and he also said he made the ingots a little over-weight in order to make up for any discrepancy. As far as I can tell, he completely disappeared not long after. His landlord probably kicked him out for scorching up the place, which his landlord had apparently complained about, and he ended up out on his rear end without two nickles to rub together.
