Well, thank you all, especially ARKM, whose tutorial taught me the basics of etching in the first place. It took me a few goes to realize how to balance the salinity, voltage, and distance between the terminals in the saltwater etching process to avoid any blotching on the sink tube.Originally Posted by ARKM
