Appreciate the pointers here, I am a little leary about the "making medicine" thing when I don't know what I am doing. Yet :-). I've avoided the salt since I am not trying to make silver chloride :-), athought I have seen various schools of thought that say this is OK for "a short time". I try these over the next day or two to see what happens. Some additional instrumentation is something I can see in the very near future. One question, what would you consider "household uses" ? > "Nothing says quality like wrinkle free duct tape" I love it :-), I'm also a fan of Red Green :-).
