Copper Plate Pla

This is my first ever how-to video and in It, I show you how to copper plate none-conductive items such as 3D prints, These prints can be any printing materiel including Pla, Abs and Petg. Without using Strong Acid.

I use a simple solution of white vinegar and copper sulphate pentahydrate to copper plate a PLA 3D print, I include details of how to mix the graphite based conductive varnish and what voltages and currents to use to create a good base plate.

Please be very safety conscious and wear gloves + eye safety doing all activities in this Video.
