hmmm, stainless steel. have not done stainless steel. question I have is if you are nickel plating stainless to match the finished look of adjacent parts? rust resistance should be similar for the two metals.

I get a computer power supply with 500w and I want to know if I can modify psu to deliver all it power(watt) to 12v only rather than dividing in 3.3v, 5v etc. like all 12v 42amp as on psu label it is written that 12v 15amp, 5v 15amp etc. look like these amp are divided thank you.
@riccardosdiyandrestoration3 ай бұрын
Hi rex_rubus, my understanding is that the voltage and current rails are designed to deliver the rated outputs via dedicated circuitry rather than a large pipe that is then divided into the various voltage components. Based on this understanding, you cannot simply combine the circuits to provide the amperage that you are looking for. I think that the PSU manufacturers take a bit of description license when advertising a PSU total wattage as the sum total, however, this is never what is available along the individual voltage rails. Also, it is important to note that these PSUs have been designed to operate in a particular environment that never requires the total amperage on any of the individual voltage rails because PCs are not intended to draw that total power. Hope that helps. Cheers

Can the obtained niacetate solution be further diluted with distilled water to accommodate bigger parts to plate, or will I have to empty vinegar supplies of entire supermarket. (Gonna plate a bike gas tank)
@riccardosdiyandrestoration6 ай бұрын
My understanding is (if I can recall my high school chemistry classes) that you can dilute the solution, however the resulting lower concentrations of nickel in solution will result in longer plating times.
@TheStigma5 ай бұрын
Yes, you need some vinegar (ascetic acid) to produce the nickel acetate, but the product you want is actually the salt. If you let the vinegar and water evaporate (they fully evalorate) then you would be left with green crystalized solids. That is often how it's sold. Dont let large amounts of acid fume out in a closed space though, especially not a garage with tools ect. the fumes will make other things oxidate quickly.

I have only seen the points loose implying loading one at a time, however I cannot see that this is very efficient. I recall seeing a picture a long time ago where the points were stacked like regular staples which would make loading significantly easier. Unfortunately although noting at the time that this was a good idea, I did not keep the details or even checked that they were suitable for the Red Devil.
