Dude tell me more about that setup..... I need a way to do suppressor tubes and lowers for NFA markings. Think it would work well?
I got this one used for 3-1/4 bennys. You print the stencils on a dot matrix printer, the ones that print on multi forms. 9 or 24 pins. There is a utube vid from Midway USA showing that dude Potterfield etching a barrel using the same setup. I just used the stencils that came with the rig from the previous owner and tried it on a barrel I fucked up many years ago.
This roll of material is the stencil
Cut off a piece and put it in a typewriter.
Taped the blue part to the metal
hooked the ground to the barrel and soaked the wick in the solution.
Rolled the wick over the stencil about 6 passes.
Deep etch
turned to the other side and did a light etch
Not that complicated, just have to make sure the stencil doesn't move.

Yeah thanks much for the pics.
Any idea how deep the 'deep' etch goes? Have you tried it on anodized aluminum?
