I built my tank out of Plexiglass. A quick trip to a local glass shop and I found a piece of scrap that I was given. I told the guy what I was doing and asked him if he could cut if for me and he gladly did so, I tipped him 20.00 worth it to me. The bubble generator is nothing more than a cheap aquarium pump with an airstone on it, works great.....espcially if you go to a larger pet store and get wone of the long ones I also put an aquarium heater in mine. This keeps the etchant warm and makes the process a little quicker. I also buit a small cam system which rocks the whiole assembly back and forth. If you do this make sure it is a slow rock,,, with all the liquid in the tank it is easily tipped if you rock it too fast This may be a little more than you are looing for but if not a start at least a second step Eddie Turner, kc4awz -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
