Hello members!!!! I did it. I did my first full refining. It's silver, but it's as pure as I can get it and it looks good too (besides the pour I did outside in 27F degree temp).
I want to first thank Noxx for having such a unique and awesome forum. I also want to thank especially.....

...and many more of you that I haven't mentioned. I haven't forgotten you at all.
This is a partial refine from 1 lb of keyboard mylars. I haven't rinsed and washed the other portion from this batch yet, but I'll be doing it tonight.
So far, I refined 5.8 grams of silver, and I have more in my other beaker from the same 1 lb batch. I did notice that some of the silver did get through the filter and I saved the rinse solution, which means I will have to let that pile up and dry it out. I can easily see around 3 grams or so already from my wash/rinse water.
I expect to get somewhere around 12 - 15 grams of silver per lb of mylars when it's all said and done. Again, this is my first batch and I have over 50 more lbs to process. I'll post my final yield from this 1 lb batch once I complete it.
Thanks again to all of you. Much Love!

From the advise of a member, I had to move my wife from the bottom of the list to the top of the list above. (thanks scrapman1077)
