After joining this forum nine years ago, I'm finally getting around to doing some refining.
I set up a Laser Steve style cell, with a Pyrex dish, but I set the dish into a tank of water to cool it.
I did not use the drain cleaner acid, I used 98% from Duda.

The first image shows a refrigeration unit with the evaporator in the form of a spiral stainless steel tube, shown sitting on top.
If you set that coil in water it will freeze a block of ice around it
The second image shows an ice chest with the lid removed and the coil placed inside.
The spatula is to stir the water around.
The third image shows the plastic cover in place, with a hole for the Pyrex dish.
The forth image shows the cathode, which is made of 10 gauge copper wire. I glued wooden blocks on to hold the cathode in place, but they are not in this picture.
The fifth image shows the working cell, with the battery charger connected, and the wooden blocks glued in place.
The alligator clip that holds the parts is attached to a piece of 1/4 in copper wire (6mm). The wire slides up and down inside of a rubber hose
