Yeah but supposedly this house is bought was remodel in 2017 and got all new electric installed. But it's no worries I got a guy coming in to install a couple 20 amp breaker/outlets. That should be all I need for the smelter. I just gotta make due till then
Has any seen this type of percipitate from AR before?

Swapping breakers is a simple job
I gotta have some wire replaced as well to outside outlets cause somehow the outlet melted. (no i wasn't using it for the smelter) it had the water filter plug into it. And it charred the insulation of the wires deep into the conduit. I can run that myself but for some reason these outside outlets are breakered right under the Electric meter where 200k amps or watts (whatever it is) come into the house at the meter. And i don't have that much confidence in my skill to no burn my ass to a crisp trying it myself.
Just an update on that post i made. I appreciate all the help. I have retrieved my values. I know some suggested going back into AR but I choose to just start over. I took basically every thing this mess and the last 2 values that came out ok just had not washed or acid bath yet on them incinerated it all. Did hot nitric then melted it as shown in first Pic. I tested for gold karat and inquarted forgot Pic for the shot. Did nitric then AR again. And the last Pic is values after about 7 hot washes. I haven't done the hci wash and the additional hot washes and second AR and drop as of typing this yet. Please let me know what I did that was maybe pointless or just plain wrong. To rework the mess I ended up with. Cause it's how I will learn.

Nitric to an alloy after nitric and melting will not do much imo, you could have skipped the second one i think. Did anything dissolve in the second Nitric bath?
Did everything dissolve in the last AR bath?
the most important wash is the HCL wash right after AR, before you do hot water washes, why? > AgCl solubility.
I would save this powder until you have 'enough' for the second AR.
