What is you're favorite metal and why?

what is you're favorite metal and why?

for me
>carbide
because it cuts all other metals

>inb4 diamond

Americium because it is the freest of all the metals and because it saves lives and you can poison commies with it

>being this autistic

As a CNC machinist I aprove of carbide

Inb4 Jk is a faggot

diamond

Tungsten, the name is just fucking awesome.

Diamond because it's hardest metal.

Copper

Way cheaper than gold and conducts the fuck out of some electricity

Carbide Boyz fo lyf

carbide isn't a typical metal though. it's a sintered compound. that fucks me up. silver's prob my favorite

Carbide is not a substance, it is carbon bonded to another element such as tungsten carbide, titanium carbide or calcium carbide

Cobalt

i love tapping threads, its so satisfying for some reason

plutonium , it kills mofos

this
fucking fag
almost any metal can cut another if its going fast/hard enough.

hair

Slayer.

Tungsten, bc all other metals melt before it!

hell yeah!

copper.
conductive, cheap, workable

Aluminum

Carbide's not a metal dumbass.

Shhh...Don't ruin this. I wanna see where OP takes it.

Slayer sucked. I'm glad dimebag's dead

Gold because it's the most valuable

I like gold because it makes me look like a baller.

jew detected

Gold
Because its actually fun to dig in the river and find it.

Carbide is pretty sweet. I like copper, it's the only metal I actually like wearing. I dont like gold, silver is ok.

>gold is a metal
Fucking summerfag dumbass kids

Naw, carbide sucks for cutting brass.

iridium

damnit. I thought it was

Platinum and rhodium are both more valuable than gold. Most valuable, if you want that to be your deciding factor, is californium 252. It's like 30mil a gram

My dick

Iridium, because I can make Minecraft reactors with that stuff.

Big boys talking metals fellow user, please try to keep up.

Gold is a chemical element with symbol Au (from Latin: aurum) and atomic number 79. In its purest form, it is a bright, slightly reddish yellow, dense, soft, malleable, and ductile metal. Chemically, gold is a transition metal and a group 11 element.

Keep up with what? Basic high school chemistry?

...

>transition metal
That means it's not a metal, dumbass
Hence the word transitioned
Gold is a stone

Watermelon

I think this bread proves we're all autists

ammonia

smells nice

Fucking bismuth.

But gold is a metal you fucking retard

Dolomite

shh, we're all mentally retarded here.

right side of the image is doctored you can see the stick phase through the post

Heavy

lol, dont you have homework to do kid?
how old are you anyway?

Bismuth is pretty sweet. Plus they just made a superconductor out of it recently if I'm not mistaken.

son of a bitch, you're right!

Yup

I agree man, this thread is full of summerfags

hydrogen

You sir, are definitely Sup Forums material.

Carbide end mills make my asscheeks shake

Where is gallium at? Melts in your hand and shit. Pretty much all its good for, except HDDs and shit but MELTING SPOONS

Indium

Fuck off, I'm 35.I actually took science in university and I was on Sup Forums since day one you newfag

Dog must be some sort of wizard or something

Steel, because jet fuel can't melt it.

what element is labeled as just "metal" on the periodic table?

You can make a workable copy of someone's key with it as well.

Lead it is fixing Flint.

....what type of carbide? Carbide is a term for added carbon to an alloy to strengthen it and harden it.

Anyways, I like my bits to be cobalt tipped for drilling and reaming.

Good lord, you're fucking retarded

Dubs if truth!

Checked

Titanium is pretty sweet

Then your university was shit. Take a look at a periodic table and tell me which elements are just plain "metals"

Nice Satan trips

How so?

Hey Satan

Gold is a fucking metal. Hence Precious Metal
fucking noobs.
Also, checked

Iron.... Maiden

don't be so hostile. gold can be viewed as a rock and a metal, really who cares? it's all just matter

I'm glad there are still some interesting breads on /b.
Just glad this isn't some trap, rate, or celeb thread.

>favorite metal
>lists a carbon based mineral
i guess mine is diamonds then, because it cuts all other metals

Not a Metal, sir.

mercury. the fact that it in liquid form at our livable temps is fascinating.

>diamond
>metal

Platinum! Very useful as a catalyst in many chemical reactions!

Found the nigger

Titanium cause it's fucking durable and quite light

is that true?

This.
Also osmium/iridium because I was always curious what would happen if you dropped it from 2km on a 2 floor building.

I was trolling newfag

Magnesium and Phosphorus.

>>because it blows up real good.

>making lead bullets
Proves how retarded are the weapon and munitions engineers.

Looks like we found the nigger

Gold is a transition metal just like copper, iron, nickel, and titanium. Are all of those not metal as well? The "metal" elements are all categorized in different groups, which are alkali metals, alkali earth metals, transition metals, lanthanoids, actinoids, and post-transition metals. They are all metals you fucking inbred retard jfc

Adamantium.

Forgot to mention because enough beer in the blood, I'm talking about 1x1x1 meter cube.

Lead is dirt cheap.
Osmium and iridium are not.

Steel, because of it's versatility. Yes yes, I know steel is actually an iron alloy, shut the fuck up.

Sure! It's also needed in a hydrogen fuel cell, which is a pretty cool use case!

No you weren't, you fucking looked at a periodic table and realized how much of a fucking idiot you are and now you're trying to save face by saying "hur dur i ws trolling." kys you piece of shit
