Steve, now all my questions are answered!!
I am glad you responded me, because I did not know how to contact you except
trough this list.
Everything now fits like a completed puzzle. Your diagram seems to me
extremely interesting, because I am too busy to stay in front of the EIS
generator more than 1 hour for every batch, stirring and cleaning
electrodes, and at the same time I would like to make batches of at least 1
quart at a time, and the only information I lacked was exactly this one you
just sent me: 12 ga wire electrodes, which is equivalent to 2.053 mm in
diameter. The rest of the parts I already have located, but needed to know
the electrode diameter. I will make my first batch soon and keep you
informed.
With the help of the group, I am making what I consider good quality EIS,
crystal clear, no residues at all, around 14 ppm average, small particles,
very stable. I am not even storing it in amber bottles any more, so that I
can clearly see how they evolve in time. It is working wonderfully, but I
need the same or better quality with a more efficient method.
Apart from the 0.8 mm wire electrodes I have, there is no thicker wire
available around here. I have some .999 silver from a swiss certified 250
gram ingot, which is the only thing I have found so far,
and I am planning to have it melted and laminated by a jeweler so that I can
get 8, 10 and 12 gauge (ø 3.264, 2.588 and 2.053 mm respectively). Now the
problem may be how to keep the silver without being contaminated by mainly
gold alloys they process. I have never done this before.
It would be so much simpler if I had a reliable source of already made good
quality wire/rods. If I have a chance I will have someone buy and bring me
some from USA, but meanwhile I will have to solve this on my own. A friend
of mine might travel to USA within a month and a half.
Since the process with your generator takes around 24 hours I was
considering the convenience of keeping it in a dark place to avoid
alteration by light, and also minimize the ammount of contamination from
dust and lint from the air around. What do you think about this?
With the help of you and my other friends in this list, on top of all you
had already taught me, I now know some about useful metric equivalences, and
have several tables printed!!
Thank all of you very, very much.
Carlos

Carlos,
12 Gauge. Reading the label from the silver wire manufacturer, it is 12
Gauge, 2.05 MM. The data from Richard, below, is wrong.
