We set up an anodizing line in what was a dog kennel 10 years ago. I don't raise dogs any more, but I did want a way to anodize aluminum and titanium parts.
On the left are the acid baths. There are two 18 gallon tanks contained inside the vented enclosure. We currently have three colors which are contained in the red 5 gallon coolers. Each one has its own bubblier and digital thermometer so we can keep track of the temp.
The stainless pots contain the heated sealer, cleaner, detox and etching solutions. We picked up a used vibratory tumbler last year; its the round blue thing in the front.
The cold water rinse sink is in the corner.
We will be making the first run this afternoon.
The Bubble Jigs will be coming out in color a little latter this year. We are also just about ready to put our new adjustable, pocket sized, carbide knife sharpener on the market. It will be out later this year.
I am always amazed at what it takes to bring a new product to fruition.
I'll post pics of the results of our first attempts when I get pictures.
Happy to answer any questions, Fred
