The Still Tank 85 WOODEN TANKS Most popular of all type?, is the wooden tank. In-expensive and easily constructed, it always findsfavor in the plating room. Such containers may bepurchased, made to dimensions desired by the electro-plater. When an asphaltum or other lining is speci-. Fig. 45.—Chemically Enameled Iron Tank for Gold, Silver,Cyanide Solutions, and Lacquers (Crown Rheostat & Supply Co.) tied, it is usually applied after the delivery of thetank, since the continuous jarring during transitcracks a lining applied at the factory. Lead-linedtanks are more serviceable; but the added expenseoften causes the prospective purchaser to choose thecheaper painted coating. The wooden tank is by no means difficult to con-struct, although a certain knowledge of wood workingis, of course, essential. There is a satisfaction inbuilding ones own equipment, aside from the ma-terial saving in the cost. 86 The Modern Electroplater TANK CONSTRUCTION Although the tank may be built in any desired di-mensions, in general it should be about twice as longand nearly as high as it is wide.
