I wasn't happy with the results of nickel or copper plating when I tried it. DIY decorative copper and nickel plating is fine for little stuff. Usable functional copper or nickel plating where you can solder and it seals the underlying metal is best done by professional plating shops. I found zinc to be the easiest to do for the DIYer. There is a website finishing.com that goes into great detail on the plating field.
