plating at home

Have you looked thru Eastwood's offerings?
 
Hi DH,
I've used Caswell's plating system with good results. Mostly with their Nickel, but have dabbled with copper. Here is a link to a discussion of it with some photos. Click Me You can get to their website on the left side of this Forum under "Supporting Vendors", look for the banner of the PC gun. PC standing for powder coating.
 
I have used Eastwoods Zinc plating for years and liked it, it works well. Big issue is the battery, if its weak or dead you waste a lot of time. I plan on trying the Caswell system with a plug in power system instead of battery this year.
