Default What else do I need to gold plate

I Got the gold solution, a stainless steel anode, and a rectifier. Im assuming I need an alligator wire clip to put in the rectifier. Where do I get this metal bar on the top, I think I found the tank on the caswell site, whats the best way to plate small rings, but I need to have thousands done and I dont have a garage, (I heard of the clothes hangar idea) i'd be doing this in a room in my apartment. How long will the anode last that I have, Ive read bad things about steel. I was also wondering if I could do it over the stove in a pot with the heat on to maintain the heat of the solution. Is this dangerous to do with the 3amps?

Thanks.
Chris
