Here are some pictures of my cell once it finished after 48 hours run at 1 vdc pulling 1-1.3 amps. The largest crystal measuring .25". Total from the cell was 7 oz.

Perhaps a thread on silverplate? I have done my searching on the site and I can only find old postings of it not worth the effort?
Any Input?
Thanks

It has been mentioned on the forum before, I forget where.
I had a guy just ask me about doing 150 lbs of silverplate and I
told him I don't think it is worth it YET.

I think you're smart about that. I've been doing this crap for a jillion years and still don't know a profitable way to do silver plate. Maybe when silver hits $100.
Uh-huh!This guy was telling me that he had a place that was doing it for him, and they are just too busy now.
Wow!stihl88 said:A guy i know thought a quick way to get the plating off might be to buff it off with a bench mounted grinder with a wire disk attachment to kind of brush the plating off, you would of course have some copper contamination but that could be easily eliminated...
It would probably take a while to build up a tub full of Silver powder doing it this way but I'm sure it would be a relatively quick process to buff the Silver off the plated item.
