Hey all,
Just wanted to say congrats to Jimi. He has been knocking it out of the park with his enclosure etches. I know from experience that they are time consuming, expensive, and take a lot of patience to do. So, Congrats Jimi and keep up the good work!

Hey thanks! It's a learning process. I wish I could make them look better, but it's a learning process. I appreciate you.

Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

Well you've had some killer etches lately and they only seem to be getting better. Keep up the good work bud!

I have to agree. I look at etched enclosures in build reports with envy, but I have never worked up the nerve to try it.  Years ago I etched 2 PCBs: one came out perfect and the other was a disaster.  I never tried again.

Honestly, I tried it because I could easily have the stuff I needed delivered, and the acid magic requires no mixing. The HP paper made all the difference. I'd etch PCBs if it wasn't for all that drilling. I might one day.
