Damn that's kicking ass, lol! :High 5:

You're not even lyin Dawg !!! I am so shocked. I think I might be getting closer to getting this process zeroed in on. I may have out done myself this time. I think I'm gonna pay myself on the back tonight and go get me a $10 hooker.

I didn't stop it at 2 hr mark cuz I was busy with something else. Now, here is the 2 1/2 hr mark and its still running strong, and bringing tiny bubbles to the top. My amp reading on the charger is still highest its ever been before, and its holding steady at what I started with. This tells me, the steel is still clean and working good. Look at this pic close. Notice the circular trail in the rusty electrolyte??? You know what that is??? That's the path of my steel ring I made. That has got to be the electricity of the ring raising the bubbles to keep that air cleaner. I have a feeling this head is gonna look good.
But now I gotta get ready to go do the part time thing. So its gonna get to run 4.5 hours unattended. Its on the front porch, so I am sure if somthing goes wrong the neighbors will call the Fire Dept. :roflbow::roflbow::roflbow:

I am loving this pic. You can make out where the ring is, and actually, you can see the outline of the head too. The head is in there kind of at an angle. So where the head is, and where the ring is, its raising bubbles and moving the electrolyte pushing the rust away making a ring path, and a rectangle path inside the ring. Obviously real good connections and this process is firing on all cylinders. Awesome !!!

I let it run the whole time I was gone. Right now its just under 8 hours. I love this, the amp guage is still where it was when I started and I haven't even cleaned the steel, rotated the head or nothing. Its ran 8 hrs without being touched. I still see the outline of the steel ring, and the outline of the head. I also still see much bigger bubbles now. I guess cuz the air is getting trapped under the froth and then turns to a bigger bubble before it pops. At this point, I'd say it might be dangerous with hydrogen output, and glad I did it outside. But I am impressed. I think after posting these pics, I'm gonna stop it.

Amp meter has been this way since I started it at 1:45pm Central Time.

Looks good

I think it'll look even better after it dries completely. But I need to hit with WD-40 so it doesn't start to re rust. Some surface rust already started, but it rubs right off. Look at how pitted those valves are after the rust came off them. Unreal. And you don't think rust can eat metal??? It damn sure does.
