Annealing Aluminum- Armor and metalworking basics

Why does my metal keep cracking??? Whether you are making your own aluminum armor, bending a bar from home depot, or just have work hardened aluminum this video will show you all you need to anneal (soften) the metal! For aluminum, once you see that heat radiating back at you with a bright orange red, only a second or two is needed, then proceed up and around the piece to get all of it to that temperature- just below 800 degrees. If you see micro bubbles STOP that is the first warning sign, if the metal gets hot enough to turn into a wet noodle often its too late but try to quench it to save the piece. But there might already be too much macro and micro damage to the grains within the piece. Feel free to leave any questions of comments below! These videos take a lot to make and I'm learning more and more how I best want to do them so any feedback helps!
