Default Electrolysis DE-rusting Cast Iron

I followed up on the Electrolysis DE-rusting metal thread by Nate
Nagel. Using this video to build the tank:

I only needed the super washing soda and iron re bar.
Cost only ~ $7 for both. Everything else was in the garage.
Used a cup and a half of washing soda in 15 gallons of water.

Charger was set to 2 amps.

Cleaned cast iron.

DIY photo made using freeware suggested by Danny D.

Happy Happy Happy.
