Item Description: This is a polyethylene framed rotating barrel desktop electroplating machine. It has a 2.5 in dia barrel that can accept up to 1 lb of material, it is manufactured by the singleton corp.

I bought this to electroplate hard cast lead bullets with copper. You can use other metals too, like Nickle.

I had varying levels of success, but never spent a lot of time trying to tweak the formula. Someone with more time and a more experimental mindset might get more out of this than I could.

This is like new, with only a dozen hours of use. They are $705 new retail. Here is a link to a metal finishing site that sells these.
