Re: Building an etching tank?

2011-01-25 by John Ferrell

I have always used a glass baking dish with a cover as an etching tank. 
Of course if you are doing a lot of larger boards you might not find 
exactly what you need. They are not expensive.

I have read about using a zip-lock bag to etch and I plan to try that 
the next time. It sounds like a good solution that is both clean and frugal.

A lot depends on how big your boards are. Mine seem to be getting 
smaller every time.
