Default Re: Cast iron in zinc

Sean,

I gave up on the caliper. It was too much work and I spent way too much money and in the end, each time the failed attempt killed the bath. A 1 ohm 150w power resistor was not big enough to handle the 10amps I was drawing and I blew that up. It's almost as if the bath get's contaminated after trying. The caliper is dead clean, passes the water break test add infinitum but same result everytime. I have no other problems with any other parts, I think these are just too big for what I'm capable of doing at home. I've tried doing just one side at a time and even then it doesn't work well. I'm taking them to a local plater in the morning.

Ken-
