Photo etch

[rd49]

having been let loose on our new cad system at work, i,ve got the idea to produce my own custom designed sets.
having produced the design the next obvious step is the hardware stage, dose anyone know if this can be done conmmercially at a affordable cost, or if it is possible to do oneself?- I realise that there may be health and safety issues, which is why I prefer to have this done on a private ,small scale basis

You can produce your own photo etch at home, but click on the link and have a quick read, then decide if you want to have the process done for you: www.themodelmakersresource.co.uk/articles/article001.html

thanks, I don,t think I have suitable facilities at home, so it looks like outsourcing.
thanks again for the reply Nick.
