long story short i went to anime expo in LA and took a class on etching bronze copper and other metals
process called for
-canned or pickling salt
-distiled water
-container
-plates to be etched and a negative plate from which to etch
-some kind of photo paper
-ink jet printer
-iron
-D battery and wires

I had wrote down all the steps on my computer there, but when I got home I found out that the data had become corrupted somehow.

what im asking is if any one has tried this method and has any success, and if they could tell me how to go about replicating it.

or if anyone has a better method for etching.
