Hey everyone.Great to see you all, and glad we all weathered the storm. Marci and I hada great time, and I got the shot in the arm I need to get back to building!!Two questions.1. I have an aluminum part I want brass plated. I know this is a multi stepprocess involving zinc or nickel plating, then brass plating etc. I amhaving a heck of a time finding a plating shop to do it, any ideas outthere?2. If I wanted a thin wall stainless tube that I simply couldn't find stock,I was thinking I could have a sheet metal shop roll some up for me. What isthis process called and what type of shop would I look for? I'm thinkingsix foot lengths about 2.5" in diameter.Thanks,Douwe________________________________________________________________________________Date: Mon, 26 Jul 2010 14:08:20 -0500
