That is actually a tattoo gun for livestock. Put numbers in pliers and add ink to ear of animal and squeeze pliers and wallah you have a permanent tattoo for identification. Just thought I'd share.
This is wonderful! Out of curiosity, how much nickel plating is TOO much nickel plating? You put the tools in for 90 seconds. What would have happened if you'd gone a little bit more? Does it ruin the tool?
hey my friend! There are so much "rules" for nickle plating - so much that theres not that one answer. Depending on the power, the nickel, the amount of nickel solution, the size of the part...and much more. But to answer your question: I once left it too long in the solution and it started to "crack" on the surface, hard to say but it looked like little cracks and a slightly "wavey" surface. You need a lot of experience with plating that way, to get the "perfect" result.
Hallo Thomas, vernickeln ist nicht ganz so leicht wie es hier aussieht, am besten schaust du mal auf RU-vid „how to nickel plate“ - hier wird der ganze Prozess erklärt 🙂
@@misterpatina Hi, Doch wirklich fast so einfach, habe gerade meine ersten Teile erfolgreich vernickelt. Inklusive Elektrolyt selber machen (Essigbasis)
Thanks for your comment Paul! This Tool is used for (tattoo-)marking cows or pigs ears, to identify them. Pretty cruel, but I won’t use it - just for decoration 🙂
Beautiful video. Thanks. Why did you leave all the big holes (pockmarks) in the handle? my mechanics would not have. I want you at his level to give us more good options. :-)
