[Jewelry making - Article 00218] - [Orchid] Setting up Electroforming system

[Elaine Luther]

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========

    I was reading The New Jewelry by Charles Godin and he has a chapter
    on electroforming. It describes the part I already knew, wax model,
    coat with conductive paint, put in bath, wait. 

    I have been in metalsmithing studios at colleges that had
    electroforming set ups, but never got the chance to use them. 

    Can anyone suggest where to find more information about how to set
    up a system, suggest a book? And just how horrifyingly dangerous is
    it? 

    Thanks so much,
