Nice job Darren. It'll be a shame to actually use it.

Looking good Rob. I see sulfuric acid and what I assume is nickel acetate. What are the rest?

I've been thinking I need to make a drawbar wrench/hammer and now the bar has been raised considerably. Very nice indeed.

Hi Mick 

Fairly pleased with  a plating solution that costs £0.70 per/litre  or $4.12 per/gal (US)   Big Grin but I still have a couple of things to workout  Chin , but all in all I am happy with the result .

Thanks  Tom , 

As to the actual chemicals on the tray , I would with respect rather not say . That is  why they are not clearly visible in the photo .

A couple of months ago, I made up a nice little sheet metal bracket which lives on the mounting bar for my DRO.  It'll take about 13.2 minutes to make.   Smiley-eatdrink004
