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.
