DIY Etchant Tank

Dave,
Beleive it or not I have not changed the etchant in that Jar EVER!
It's been at least 6-8 months and I etch ALOT of boards!

That's great news Mark. I went through more than half a 16oz bottle and I only etched 6 PCB's. I'll definitely be filling that pickle jar today.

Pickle jar etchant tank worked like a charm. Thanks for the tips Mark. Now I have to finish my Professor Tweed.

Anytime Dave,
I find it seems to etch a bit faster than using the tray method.
Happy Etching!

Professor Tweed is on the test board and sounding pretty damn good. I can't wait until tomorrow when the family is awake and I can crank it up.
