First time doing electrolysis and everything is going great. I uploaded some pictures.
I wasn't able to find Arm & Hammer Washing Soda. So I went to my local pool store and purchased a 2# container of Sodium Carbonate see picture of it.

Looks like its working good
Let us know how everything works out. |

Here are some pics of my electrolysis set-up. I went all out and built the trelless out of 1" angle in order to support even wheel weights. The small upright is for the positive, or anodes. The black part is some heavy rubber that offers all of the insulation I need. I put five small hooks spaced out for multiple parts. I have since added another anode opposite the first to increase effectiveness. It's all mounted on a 55 gallon plastic drum I cut to about 36".

Looks great, Wayne! I remember checking it out, when I was picking the #2 cart up.

Here's the reason for my building an extra strong parts support frame for my elect. tank. This is my first wheel weight and so far, so good. I used an eye bolt for the main support and a C clamp for the elect. connection. I'm now using a 12v car battery connected to the tank and a charger connected to the battery. It's suppose to give a "cleaner" electrical flow and do a better job. I also added another anode for better conductivity and coverage.

wshytle: How do you regulate the current? I was under the impression that you would want to maintain no higher current than 3A, so as not to make the process too fast and cause pitting. Also, what mixing ratio of soda to water do you use?

The current depends on the cleanliness and surface area of the sacrificial metal piece. I have never had a problem with pitting. Some items I have cleaned would draw 4-5 amps as long as the anode stayed relatively clean.

OK I'm interested in this idea....
How does this work? Does anyone have a before and after photo of a cleaned part???? |

Had the nose on my # 109 done. Propped it up with some angle iron to keep it raised.
![]() Could'nt see myself sanding all the littla nooks & crannies on this part. Had aluminum plate the 1st day. BAD 2nd day was the foot rest, another bad idea after being warned. ![]() Then after 4 days the part was done. Don't have a after pic but was satisfied with the results. The paint that was left just flaked off. Finished my project with a re-bar charging rod for the + end. Next Summer I might look into a sand blaster for the # 122??????????? Nik,

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
