    Seth, just another thought on the machined surfaces. I have noticed that if a section of the part gets above the surface of the electrolyte, there is a definite line created on the part where it comes out of the water. Not sure if there is any metal removed or if it's just discolored metal. Be careful to keep it submerged since the process not only converts rust, but also breaks the water down into gas. The level will drop over time.

    Like the others, I'm very interested in how this turns out.
