Make sure to take out your anodes if you are done electroforming
if you dont it will leach more copper into the solution and throw off the ratio!
if that does happen take out all of the nodes except one and starve your solution to get the right ratio
Electroplating, also known as electrodeposition is a process for producing a metal coating on a solid substrate by means of a direct electric current.
Electroforming is a metal forming process in which parts are fabricated through electrodeposition on a model.
An electrolytic bath is used to deposit an electroformable metal onto a conductive surface of a model (mandrel). Once the deposited material has been built up to the desired thickness, the electroform is parted from the substrate. This process allows precise replication of the mandrel surface texture and geometry at low unit cost with high repeatability and excellent process control.
Depending how you use this process you will be either Electroplating or Electroforming but in the jewelry making community its common to call either just Electroforming
