Specialty metal electrodes are WAY the heck up their price wise. Following

and choosing an anode for an electrochemical oxidation SWIM would like to use a Ti anode coated with 50-50 mix of Ti and Ru oxide as described.
Would it be practical to perchase a length of scrap Ti billet and have it custom coated by an electroplater? I know one is going to pay up the wazoo for the electroplating, but if an alloy of Ti is selected for the anode would the trace amounts of other elements in the alloy effect the reaction?
SWIM would think not as long as it is going to be coated with Ti-Ru. Also, what would be the smartest way to attach lead wires from the homemade electrode?
