Copper Plating

<< < (24/49) > >>

unfy:


constructing the next 'basket'.

i'll zip tie / copper twist tie the other bottom to the one...

along with the pvc holes present, i'll also be drilling more holes or cutting out more stuff along those walls so solution can circulate etc.

unfy:
Been sick... using a dremel and such when not feeling well ... makes for ugly results.  owell... functionality over aesthetics :)

anyhoo, basket is... at a point where i'm a bit confused on how to do something



i've also got the bottom of another 5 gallon bucket cut off to complete the basket, similar cross shape pattern.

fiddling with some sections of the vinyl/fiberglass window screen... i'm... not coming up with a great way to attach it just yet (so bullets dont fall out).

after i get that figured out, i can do another test plate with new anode sheet and new basket and stuff :)


actually, if i use that thicker copper wire or something to make the pie-shape outlines... and wrap the screen around the wire frame... and then zip tie the wire frame (with screen) to the bucket..... that... might work

unfy:
screen idea didn't work out too well....

tried also cutting up some water jugs to make inserts.... first attempt failed (too flimsy)... will be trying again shortly (or with something else).

must attempt plating tonight!

Man, and I thought I was a hardcore tinkerer.  You're taking this to a whole other level.  Keep up the good work.
