Trying to find other supplies locally for electroforming and etching - DYI
One item I need is Copper Sulphate (need this for electroforming as well ) and I found it locally at HH Goods in Uxbridge
Another item is Sodium Bisulphate which can also be used for pickling - so double duty on that
local supplier in Ontario DH Jutzi - 50lb bags but I'll use it up quickly as pickle or give some away
DH Jutzi also carries Ferric Chloride in 5 gal pails - which is very useful so when I order the Sodium Bisulphate I'll order a 5 gal pail and have delivered at same time
Graphite powder - found it at currys art supplies
Copper powder - found at Sculpture supply in Toronto and ordered when I ordered my new quart of Permalac sealer
graphite powder and copper powder - are to experiment and see if I can make my own conductive paint for electroforming -
this weekend is set up the etching stations and get to etching items this weekend - sheets for the etsy shop and some new items
I will do a refresher on etching as well this weekend
Hi Deborah,
ReplyDeleteI read you are using a heat press machine for transferring designs to metal. I have one without instructions. What temperature do you use and for how long? BTW I absolutely love your work!
Thank you,
