This is the first time I tried etching so I was fetching it out every 10 minutes or so to see/feel how deep the etch had got. I knew I needed enough depth to hold a layer of paint. But was not sure if I would get undercutting or how the chemistry of etching copper/zinc as against just copper would work. I have some more sheet brass and I'll try some more experiments sometime.

What is of concern was my apparently poor application of the photoresist as there are a lot of pitting across the surface where I must have left a small hole in the photoresist. But in practice it just adds to the patina in this case but may be undesirable for other projects.

Something I have noticed Grahame, looks like you have got a nice deep etch with a clean cut to it. How calculated was that? And/or was it in and out of the bath multiple times until you got it as you liked?
