GOLD APPLIED TO BRONZE TUBES FOR A NASA PROJECT
ABOVE! I received a call from a NASA Sub-Contractor with a request to apply 24 K gold
to bronze tubes. These Tubes are to be apart of a NASA research project to make a
prototype for the space station in witch this machine will be use to dispose of waist of
all types. Gold is the most conductive material known to man And the tubes are to
conduct the heat from this machine. The Gold leaf was not burnished or smoothed, a
leafy affect was desired to promote more gold surface to better to help with conducting
heat. I used domestic gold from one of the oldest and most respected gold Co. In U.S.A.
