    Just a small hint from an old gunsmith. Cold Blue works best when the parts are fully degreased and then heated to at least 200f prior to application. Birchwood Casey used to include that info with their product. After the degrease step drop the parts in boiling water and then immediately apply the cold blue liquid. Gives a beautiful finish! Love your videos!

    I love these videos. No dialog and jus the sounds of the tools. You should add a before and after at the very end so you can see the final progress! Keep them coming!

    A friend had a chrome-plating shop. He told me that to get good results the base metal should be mirror-polished. It then goes to COPPER plating, washing and then, nickel plating. That way you get a shiny finish

    Good job, it looks great.
    A good way to get a deep bluing is to warm your part in the oven on it's lowest setting and submerge the part into a bath of bluing to get an even coat. I've had great success doing rifles this way.

    I really love the F. Rosa milling machine that you have. One day I will get me one too. The plating project you are doing will work better if you first plate the steel with copper first and then nickel. Also, use a transformer with a very high hurtz rating will give you a really smooth plate job. I know cause I worked in a plating company. Their is a lot that goes into a plating job. Keep on making more videos too.

    What type of grease fitting is that used on? I am familiar with Zerk fittings which are commonly used on (older)automobiles and agricultural machinery, where the gun nozzle tends to snap upon the grease fitting.

    Electrochemical polishing, pretty much reverse electroplating would have been a good way to prepare the parts for plating.
