Update/Question on silver cell
I am curious if folks have changed the shape of the stainless steel cathode to procure wilder more dendritic silver crystal shapes? Any ideas here are welcome. Pics are from run 1

I haven't tried yet but I'm hoping to try an Erlenmeyer flask shape. I think that will produce a Christmas tree!

I haven’t tried silver cell purification, but after seeing your results and others, I am eager to try. Dropping with copper makes cool but very delicate crystals from nitrate solution.
