I gave up on the fancy etching machine and opted for plastic containers and
rubber gloves.  I don't make a lot of PCBs and my time is not of much value
right now so I can afford to etch manually.

I just put ferric chloride in a small plastic container and float it in a
larger plastic container of hot water.  I like being able to inspect the PCB
during the etching, a gentle 'wipe' with a soft scrub helps move things
along.


I do mine the same way. Results are very good.
