2015年1月4日 · As I have wanted to give back for all of the knowledge that I have accumulated from you very generous lampworkers, I am sharing this recipe for an electroforming solution so that you can electroform (copper coat thicker than plating) your beads or …

The instructor will show the students how to place the beads into the copper sulfate bath, how to connect the cables to the DC rectifier and how the establish the proper amperage and voltage settings for the electroforming process. Section 5 will demonstrate and discuss different finishing options once the electroforming process is complete.

Electroforming, the intricate process of fusing copper onto another medium where a low voltage charge is passed through the materials to create a relief that becomes a separate part in its own right, allows artists to create thicker copper structures layered …

2024年2月8日 · Electroforming is a fascinating additive manufacturing technique that intricately 'grows' metal onto a conductive template using electricity and a metal salt solution. This method enables the creation of detailed, complex metal structures often used in …

2013年5月19日 · I've recently tried electroforming some of my work, and it's gone well but I can only manage a uniform layer. I'd really like to make some things that are a bit more detailed but I can't for the life of me figure out how to add detailed dimension without sculpting glass. Anyone have experience with electroforming that would care to help me out?

2013年2月20日 · Scrub all wires and anodes and make sure the thin wire to the bead really has contact. Sometimes I have to wiggle a bit. And better don't touch the scrubbed wire without gloves. The grease of the skin may cause issues too. Do you have the right solution? Were the bottles new and never opened before?

2023年3月2日 · Electroforming solution is the environment in which the copper coating takes place, it’s the blue liquid you use to fill the bath! It’s made of a mixture containing things like sulphuric acid, brightener, and copper sulfate. You can either buy electroforming solution commercially, or you can choose to make it yourself!

1982年1月1日 · The basic concept involved in electroforming is relatively simple: the rectifier supplies both positive and negative current; positive to the anodes (the copper plates) and negative to the cathode (the bead painted with the electroconductive paint).
