Pro tip for applying crazy fine detailed vinyl: don't weed it right away. Mask the whole thing, apply it, then weed it on the substrate. With both the positive and negative parts stuck firmly to the substrate it's easier to pull out the negative without disturbing the positive by accidentally lifting parts off you don't want on the wax paper backing.

Hot acid dramatically decreases the time needed to etch, but it also dramatically reduced the time you have to remove any splashed acid from your skin before real harm is done. With most acids at room temperature you get a comfortable margin of safety to flush the affected area before any real harm is done. Hot acid immediately starts breaking down tissues, as soon as you are splashed real damage is done. Its kind of like you CAN drive 120+mph down a road to get somewhere faster, and you may even get there without anything bad happening, but that doesn't make it worth it. Use room temperature acid and work on another project while it etches or use a bubbler, don't heat your acid unless you are in a lab setting, have proper ppe, an eye wash station, a quick way to neutralize the splashes that will inevitably happen, and have gone through lab safety so many times you could recite the text book.

Also, excellent video. I've been using nitric acid (typically sold as Silver Etching Mordant - mordant in this case being nitric acid pre-diluted in water, as the pure stuff is disfiguring even in a minor accident.) I think like I'd like to give ferric nitrate a try instead -- Nitric acid (40-60%) is rated as a 3 (extreme danger) on the danger scale on the SDS, where as ferric nitrate is rated at a 1 (slightly hazardous.)

I'm all for in depth tutorials because it really does help in reducing the learning curve, not to mention it really prevents a lot of beginner mistakes from happening. Not only does it save tons of time and money, it also does wonders for people who may get frustrated easy or who are easily discouraged. Having a head start reduces the amount of frustration which, in turn, allows more time spent actively engaged with the process, that ends with higher rates of success. Success builds confidence, and confidence is what builds businesses. Thanks for your time and knowledge. Cheers.

A bit more complicated, but if not using a vinyl cutter (I use cricut maker) and needing finer details, I'd be inclined to use a UV resist. For the artwork print to PCB artwork film, check for pinholes and touch up if needed. That step is then done for however many uses you need. Chemically clean the metal to ensure no contaminants (water droplet test), apply UV sensitive film to metal or some other way of coating the metal with resist, sandwich artwork to metal with glass to avoid shadowing and expose with a UV flood light for a couple of minutes or so. Develop the metal to strip the resist that wasn't exposed. Etch. For PCB's I always used sodium persulfate (fine etch crystals), which works great for copper, gives no mess and the etchant remains clear, and should work for brass and some others but not aluminium.

I've been looking for something like this for a while since I come from more of an intaglio printmaking background and want to get into metalworking for jewelry. I'm so excited to try this.

Awesome info video! I etch a lot and I use toner too. The bubbler with low heat works fast and clean with ferric nitrate. Also, don't toss the used FN, even though a lot of people say it only works about 6 hours. Store it in a large glass jar and seal the lid with electrical tape and wrap the jar in towels or cloth to keep it away from light and depending on how often you etch, it will last so far for me, a year and a half. I etch a lot of pieces every 4 to 6 months. Each time it takes only an extra 10 minutes or so unless I add a small amount of FN to it. A big money saver for you I hope. I really enjoy the long videos with all the options. I'm now experimenting with steel etching with salt water for texture plates. We'll see how it goes. Lol...thank you so much! 😊

I use a hot plate turned on low and rub the image carefully with something flat like a popsicle stick. After you've tried it a few times on small images for practice, you'll master it.
