Real question isn't about electrons and all that..its' "where does the
silver come from and where does it go?"
We're doing a really bad electroplating job.
I've heard of people using a stainless steel bowl as the cathode and
container.

Hi Carol Ann
Now that my brain fog has been lifted by Ode, maybe I can answer that.
Using a stainless steel rod for the cathode an idea I got from "Ole Bob"
(now deseased). It acts as anelectron emitter only and contributes
nothing else to the EIS. In setups that use large silver annodes this
saves the cost of using silver cathodes. You can't use it if you use
polarity switching and it would make little difference if you are only
using 6"-8' electrodes.

For clarification to this novice, why would one be using stainless steel
and silver trodes together. What are they making?

According to a simple little electroplating diagram I keep handy, the
silver goes on the + side.
Electrons may head from minus to plus, but the silver is *losing *
electrons to become ions.
