The pipe was a little shorter so I poured a little out
and I didnt have a plug so I had to use some Plasticine to seal the bottom
filled it with sand and put the post in so it sat between two pieces of tape
Left it for about 2-1/2 hours (no heat)
Nice etch
cuts it rather nicely
Clean and deep
So I cut up the pipes - I used a small chop saw for the larger pieces
The next step is to solder ends onto them
so they will look like this
Large
Small
I just have to decide if the ends will be plain or to etch the ends - (might be too much )
I'll get to them soon
The etching of the washers is not turning out so well - did another batch
heat press works great with the PnP
what the PnP looks like after transfer
In the etch for 2-1/2 hours
not working as well as the stamp - Hmmmmmm there is some etch but not even as good as the staz on
seems to soak off - some sort of reaction with the metal and the ferric
will have to work on this more
The copper pipe is beautifully etched. Looking forward to seeing what you end up doing with the pcs.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried the PNP yet, but am going to sometime this week. It's interesting that it didn't work quite as well as StazOn ... look forward to seeing your finished work :)
