Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Air Stones

2002-11-21 by Cristian

You can use a piece of plastic transparent tube, similar to those used for
perfusions or for aquariums.
Introduce it in the FeCl cuve and pierce (using a hot needle)the part lying
on the bottom to permit air to escape. No need for special bubbler.
