Hey guys I discovered that you cant use brass screen for the cell basket.I couldnt find copper all they had was brass so I tried it.It worked for the first couple of times then holes started appearing on the side closest to the lead.
 
That would most likely be because of the zinc. Brass is in the neighborhood of 65 % copper 35 % zinc.

Bronze is copper and tin.
 
Kevin,

PM me your address and I'll send you some copper mesh if you'll pay the shipping.

Could stainless steel mesh be used? It's readily available.

Michaels Crafts store sell copper mesh as well.
