Bondy Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) Haha. I spent a couple of days researching the anodising process and went round tescos looking for tubs and stuff. The dangerous acids were bought from Amazon. Dyes came from Eblag. The lot set me back about 200 quid including the power pack. It's been put to good use though. Worth every penny. It's great to be able to make something in the garage and then take it out to the workshop and anodise it. Very enjoyable to do. Edited April 4, 2016 by Bondy 1 Quote Link to comment

Bondy Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 This video and the ones that follow are quite informative. The fella is a numpty. Made me cringe, but what he states is basically how I do mine. I can help set you up with a lab, etc. And can do a bit of a write up too if you want. It's easy enough to do. 1 Quote Link to comment
