RefineX Labs

Tools for hobbyist and small-scale precious metal refiners

Whether you're recovering gold or silver from e-waste, old jewelry, or plating copper from circuit boards, getting your cell dialed in shouldn't require a chemistry degree. I built these tools to help fellow hobbyists take the guesswork out of electrochemical refining.
