I bought the stuff to do this 2y ago and then got pregnant so I didnt want to mess with the solution. So thanks for the simple refresher on how to get started
I am slowly getting the supplies together to start doing this - I live in an apartment with two cats, so my main issue to figure out is how to make it safe :D - really cool with a video thoroughly7 explaining the setup - thank you for that
No problem, i would say just make sure to keep a door shut so the kitties don't get in, but I know how Cats are, curious little things.... thanks for watching.
Hello! Thanks a lot for the video! One question... - If, i wan to put more than one piece, lets say 5 or 6 pieces.. How do you set up the cables? Have a good one! 🧡🌅🧡
Please tell me what thickness can you get up to and will the copper be ductile or it will be so brittle it just cracks when bent? I want to use this for bracelets. Thanks
Thanks for this! Just wanted to clarify for the bag, I was thinking of using re-usable tea bags I have, however I believe mine are cotton will that work for this?
Hola! No Hable espanol..... But it looks like you are asking for the portions of water to acid to copper sulfate and to be honest I don't remember, I made it over a year ago. there are some videos on UA-cam explaining it better, also look on an electroforming group on Facebook. I found most of my information on different groups from our great community!
el amperaje es mejor empezarlo bien despacio así no se acumula mucho cobre en las piezas ,pero depende del efecto que cada cual le quiera dar a su pieza , y mirando de cuando es su comentario imagino que ya sabe las medidas de lo que debe utilizar jajaja
DUDE! thank you so much for making this! Quick question. Is your bus bar solid or does it have a hole through it? I found some plumping copper pipe that I wanted to use but it was not solid, had a hole for water to go through I am guessing. So the current wouldn't connect to it? My gator clips could have been touchy though.
HI! So my Bus bar is solid because it carries the electric current better (I Think), while my Anode is hollow copper tube that has more surface area for the acid to break it down. Although That's just my set up, I'm sure if you used hollow as a buys bar you'd be fine, its still a conductor Hope that helps
Thank you for doing this video for us. You don’t need music your voice is music.

I started electroforming last week and this gave me a lot of super useful tips thank you!
Thank you for explaining why it works during your set up!!
Also - I just discovered that Mirlax is a good alternative for the brightener solution, in case you care to check that money saver out!
Ill have to check that out Thank you. I eventually want a larger set up to play with so that trick will come in handy!

How do you set up the cables?
Have a good one! 🧡🌅🧡
Would you recommend having a vent in your work area?
Please tell me what thickness can you get up to and will the copper be ductile or it will be so brittle it just cracks when bent? I want to use this for bracelets. Thanks
How do you know when the solution needs to be changed?
Do you have links to the products you use specifically?
what to I set the volts and the amps too? :)
Thanks for this! Just wanted to clarify for the bag, I was thinking of using re-usable tea bags I have, however I believe mine are cotton will that work for this?
So it doesn’t matter what kind of container you use to electroform?
Used fresh solution and it created a ton of white slime/goo. Could it be the latex dissolving? 😐
Gracias ,lindo video. Que proporción de agua destilada, sulfato de cobre y acido sulfúrico se debe usar? Que amperaje recomiendas?

Is it just a cloth bag I have one but it's red I wonder if it would affect the solution
Cloth would disintegrate in the bath because of the acid. You have to use a synthetic material. Do a search for anode bags.
Getty up. Did you pick the soft porn music in the background? Just kidding, more videos please
Do you have to clean your blue solution each time you use it?
No but I filter it through a filter one and a while if it gets some stuff in it
how can I make my pieces shiny?
I haven’t used one but I heard a rock tumbler is great for it. I use a dreamer with a wire brush attachment.
What are the bags called? Good video btw
I believe they’re called anode bags
