As far as how much baking soda to use, it doesn't need to be real percise. I just dumped a small box of baking soda in the tub and plugged it in. A word of caution; don't reverse the polarity. If you do your part will become sacrifiicial.

Thank you!
Wow, the scrp sheets are not visible in the picture. I am guessing the scrap sheets get quite messed up in the process.
I just gotta try this some time I have time to burn.
I am assuming it is a tub dedicated to being used as an electrolysis vat. Am I correct?
Yeah, chili with beans ... y'all.
