discussion Photo Etch Brass sheets

[AlanG]

Anyone know where you can get brass sheets that are used in making photo etch products? Looked on evilbay but couldn't find any

I don't know if this would suit your needs? Might be a bit too thick

I am certain you don't need a particular type it comes down to thickness,I understand you can etch most metals certainly steel and nickal silver,the thickness is the main issue as it effects the amount of undercut.I've got this information from a fellow club member who has produced photo etch parts. I've also read an article in MRJ and a book that had an article on photo etching that's how we got into the conversation.One of the advantages of being in a modelling club! I am sure Eileen's Emporium will sell a suitable thickness of brass.
