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?
