Anyone done their own Zinc plating

Has anyone done their own zinc plating at home/shop? Wondering what you think of the process and results. This would be handy for some of the hardware.

How to - DIY zinc plating

The old Popular Mechanics encyclopedia set I have at home has instructions on hot dipping and other plating.

I phosphate plate parts and hardware quite frequently, but I have never tried to zinc plate.

This is a great article, so I may try to do some zinc plating in the near future!
