home anodizing?

[J Murder]

Has anyone here ever performed home anodizing and had good results (if so, any pics?)? And if you have any tips or precautions that might help me that would be cool.

some questions for magman007

-What did you use for dye?
-Where did you get the sulfuric acid?
-What did you use to strip the old ano?
-What do you do with the chemicals when you're done?
-Did you use aluminum foil for your cathodes?
