Any chance of you showing us how you did the plating. Been thinking of setting up a tank to see how I get on.

I'll post up some pics tomorrow after when I'm back in the garage.

I underestimated the amount and quality of prep required so I've only had limited success. I tried plating a caliper after a 3 day bath in oxalic acid to get rid of the rust, an alkaline based degrease and an activating hydrochloric acid bath but it went horribly wrong!

I've been distracted!

Congrats buddy. Was he/she born today?

Thank you! She, just over 4 weeks ago now.

My little girl is 1 today. She's a real little madam. It's getting easier though. Btw it feels like the past year has flown by so enjoy every moment even if it doesn't feel great at the time.

The past month feels like 5 minutes! That's scary!

Congratulations from mrsvmax and myself

Thank you!

Congratulations. Its absolute madness how fast the time goes. Ive a 12 week old and it jus feels like she arrived yesterday. But it wasnt her it was my steel :D
