just Tried it this weekend. What a great process. now I can work on tractor and get the honey do jobs at the same time (we all know which ones take highest priority). If you haven't tried rust removal this way give it a try.

Have not heard of this, tell me more about it. How much does it cost to get set up and what kind of a job does it do. I thought electrolysis was for hair removal.

Thanks for the information! IC

Here's the text I learned it from :

www.cs.cmu.edu/~alf/en/electrolysis.txt

I've used electrolysis a lot for cleaning up old
woodworking tools. My setup is a large Rubbermaid
bucket with a stainless steel vegetable steamer
(the thing with petals) at each end of the bucket
for the electrode. I know of at least one person
who uses a large garbage pail, good for large
pieces.

When I'm doing lots of small parts like screws and washers I string them all together on a piece of wire (a quick twist holds each on the wire) and suspend them from another wire crossing the bucket. Unplug the charger while you're doing all this !

there are some good articles in the archives. all you need is a container, washing soda, some scrap metal and a battery charger. takes more hours that a sand blaster but does not require YOUR time while it works. follow the link below to what i found to be the best explaination and directions.

Electrolosis is the hair removal kind.
