I built the larger electryolysis tank today...only put 20 gallons of water in, but needed a whole box of TSP and a lot of washing soda to get it to conduct electricity. I've got one rear wheel about 90% done, and I did some sheetmetal stuff in the smaller tank. I've gotten more efficient with the zinc plating...I plated as many bolts today as I have total up to this point, and the finish has gotten better. I can now plate 22 bolts at once and do 2 batches per day. Now, I've just got to start plating the other objects. This is getting easier, but it's still very labor-intensive. I have to attend to it every hour for about 10 hours to get 2 batches done.
