Would anyone know where one might take or send pieces out to get plated? And approx cost to have done? I live in Northeast PA. Thanks.

Not exactly NEPA but not that far away. I have known of them for several years, never did business with them and don't know about nickel plating or hard chrome or both. I always thought they did chrome plating but they may do nickel, like I said I never did business with them just had them tucked in the corner of my mind for possible future need.

Sorry to say but.... Nickel plating ain't CHEAP.

Lots of labor and time blasting,sanding,sanding,polishing,plating of parts.

Medium,big shops will not be interested in a small job.

My quote on your other post is within a couple dollars.

Labor day week, I'm going to Librandi's plating in Middletown then the foundry to pick up some stove parts.

Edit: Some people do plating in steps. A couple hundred dollars worth at a time. When funds allow. Start with the base/stand then work your way to top of stove.
