Hey y'all,
I made an etching tank with some directions I've found online, but haven't tried to make a PCB yet.
The tank is built from a fairly large, plastic cylinder: about 5-7 inches in diamter and about, oh ... a foot high maybe. I put a hole in the bottom and ran a tube with holes in it along the bottom. I attached it to the bottom with hot glue and sealed the spot where the tube enters with hot glue as well. I ran a test with water in the tank, using a fish pump to create bubbles, and it works great.
My question is this:
Can the etching fluid be used more than once? And if so, what should I store it in during the meantime?
Thanks
