So the question on everyones mind.... How much? :yaya:
Give me a couple days to get a few more under my belt. I have to decide on a final design and then measure time and difficulty.
Up to this point Aluminum is the hardest next to Ti. This one was manageable. I would expect Copper to be doable as well. Steel and Ti are still in the air. I imagine I can do Ti. Steel might be doable with help. That's a few weeks away.
If I had to give a number now, I'd say Al and Cu would be in the $70-80 range. Ti likely $100. I'll have a better number by the middle of next week when the rest of my stock arrives.
I love your stuff, but that price dude. I was figuring on about 50 give or take a few. Im sure others will buy. Now ill just cry in my corner.

It's difficult to charge for things you make with your own hands. If Atwood can charge 70$ for a completely machined piece, willy can charge 70$ for something completely carved by hand

Test etching with PCB etchant on Al. WARNING BE VERY CAREFUL. Ferric Chloride will burn you. Mixing with Al will create a reaction and extreme heat. Seriously.

I applied a little three times. Maybe for 10 minutes total. Results are okay. I'd need more dips and a stronger etchant. The stuff I have is over a year old and has lost strength.

(About Q's package) Willydigger:
"Is it mailed? Did you mail it? Where's the tracking? I'm pretty excited. I hope he cries. Think he'll cry? What a bitch."
