Electolysis for mi shackle
Is this right:
Big plastic box full of water.
Full bag of them crystals in the water.
Mi rusty shackle dangling in the middle of the water.
My old 5 amp CB psu negative terminal conneced to mi shackle.
My old 5 amp CB psu positive terminal connected to a 12" square piece of 3mm steel plate leaning against one side of the box (in the water
though).
Leave for 24 hours and come back?

However a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

Yes 
I find it works best with an electrode each side.
I bet there won't be a single rusty thing in sight within 24 hours, I couldn't stop
