Filip, I doubt very much if a jeweler is using .999 pure silver wire for jewelry...it's too soft. A friend of mine who is a jewelry maker uses sterling silver wire. Which is what I bet you are trying to make CS with. This is probably at least part of your problem, as sterling silver contains some copper and, probably nickel. I don't know what you are making, but please try some wire from https://secure2.websitecomplete.com/acbel/shop/showProd.asp?prod=13

Two weeks later, I wanted to give "making CS by myself" another try. This time I used 2 silver electrodes that I ordered from a jeweler that made it from 99,9% silver grains that he uses for making jewelery. I expressed my reason for needing to be sure it is 99,9% pure.
