that's not a bad idea at all for etching though I'd be very careful
even with double bagging. Its a good, cheap way to do quick one-off
etches. Even allows for aggitation though I'd be reluctant to handle
a full bag.
Still, I prefer the tank I made which has a bubbler and heater.
Yeah, its more "stuff" and requires cleaning but I get very
consistant, even etching and can do multiple boards at once. Pouring
etchant back into the storage container is very precise. I'll stick
with it.
