warmers
are just that, 'warmers'. Might require some tinkering with the
thermostat or
whatever to get correct temperature, depending on what you are using of
course.
I have been using ammonium persulphate which requires the 60 to 70
degress
celcius range. I havent used ferric chloride in a long time.
I ended up buying a bubble tank from the local Tandy store (about
AU$20).
Connected an old fish tank air pump I had lying around. I found a
container
that it would stand in so that I could pour hot water around the inner
bubble
tank. Once it reached correct temp range I start etching and just top up
the
hot water to keep it correct. I found a 'candy making' thermometer that
I use
to monitor temperature (about AU$6). All in all a pretty cheap exercise.
