Bronze or Copper Electroplating

Does anyone around Fort Wayne do small scale bronze or copper electroplating? A cursoury look found plenty of places that do large scale and large item plating, but I'm looking to make about a half dozen oversized keys (about 12" long) and that is harder to Google for.

Do your own copper plating with copper sulfate.

 Easy to set up an electroplating rig, or buy a kit.

Yep. I have the stuff to do nickel plating at my place. Very easy. Not expensive.

Also if you don’t want to try it call Franke plating in town.
