I built one of those etchers & I have not been in the shop for awhile. Need a refresher. Is it AC setting for making the mark & DC for darkening or the other way around? Thanks in advance.
Going to have to look you both up one of these days. I got a shop just NW of Jax in Taylor. I am in the process of insulating my shop a few pieces at a time as the economy has hit home hard. Working just part time now. Not enough $$ for all the supplies I need to work on knives in my spare time...
I had buffed a Damascus blade until you could hardly see the lines. I heard I can dip it into a solution to bring back out the original look. Can someone fill me in on the whole method for doing this? Thanks:les:
Please refresh my memory. I built my own etcher. Which setting is for etching the mark AC or DC and which setting is for darkening the etch? Thanks in advance. Been out of the loop for awhile.
Ok! Success at last, it was just a matter of knowing the switch number sequence. Now that I got it working what is the sequence you go through. Turn unit on, then turn switch 2 on and hold pad for 3 to 4 seconds how many times? Then is there anything you do before you throw switch 2 in the other...
