Subject: ant-farm etching tank

From: David Griffith <dgriffi@...>
Date: 2010-01-12

I'm pondering building a etching tank that superficially resembles an ant
farm:

Cut two sheets of acrylic to make the broad sides of the tank, say, 8" x
12". Add one inch to the width. Take four pieces of .5" square acrylic
rod, each the desired height of the tank (say, 8 inches). Glue two
together lengthwise to create a .5" x 1" rod. Repeat with the other two
rods. Glue these pieces to the edges of the broadside pieces. Then glue
the thing to another piece of acrylic to make a base. Perhaps make a lid
with a couple more pieces of acrylic sheet.

Is this a good idea?
