Thanks George, I will look carefully at your plan, I will need one, sooner or later,
Thanks!

Good post, GBrackett! An etcher is a nice and useful tool to have.
I cannot find the website for the etcher. Have I missed something. I would really like to find it.

Brian PM sent.
No pm received. Can anyone share link to site.
Brian.
George,
This looks very useful and I think you will have a lot of interest. Did you publish your plans and schematics so we can see how this works?
Thanks, Paul
Thanks George. Found the link. I was looking for it on the hobby machinist site. Doh.
Thanks again Brian.
Nice site, George!
I like the fiberoptic front sight on your G34. I used to shoot 3-gun with a G35 and would've loved that sight. I had fiberoptic ghost ring sights on a Winchester SX2 Practical MK2 - the best tactical shotgun I've ever used - and loved them.
Ken
Ken, I mainly use a G35 setup the same way. I got the 34 to teach one of my daughters to shoot tactically. My favorite shotgun is my Black Water 590A1.
Glad you liked the site. As soon as I'm released by the Doc I will be adding to it. I have a couple of reviews and a WIP of a forge build to finish and add to it.
Have a great day!
George
I recall finding the site to build this etcher several years ago. I build rifles, and use one of these to do the etching of information on the receiver. There are a few different designs out there. I started with one similar to what George has linked to, and it works great. If you are interested in a more advanced design, check out either one of these sites:
Electro-Etcher Information & Wiring Schematic
COUSTIL - Forge / Coutellerie / Bladesmithing
I hope to see more posts like this one. Thanks to the OP for posting.

...Semper Fidelis...
The first one I made has low and high power settings. I used it to engrave parts for R/C cars and trucks I designed, built, and sold in the 90s & early 2000s. If someone would like the plans to them, I would gladly email them the schematic. I have a bunch of stuff that I have built over the years. A lot of my tooling was built to meet a specific need. The listed etcher is mainly used by knifemakers starting out. Simple yet effective.
Ron, Thank you for the kind words.

Thanks for posting those links, blkadder.
Bookmarking this project. Thanks for sharing, George. Will definitely build this one when I have time and use it to etch my tools.
Great piece of work, would like to build oneQuote:

Please George set for me ** JS stamp ** or show the way
I searched the web but is much information.
Thanks.
Thanks for the info.
404 page not found, I would like some guidance on making up a etcher.

Here are the two links I put up before. They seem to work for me, I hope this is what you were looking for.

Thanks they worked for me this time.
Ralph
Thank you very much George. Simple to follow making one today!Quote:

Looks like your domain host is having some problems.
I'll keep trying since this looks like a nice project to work on.
Karl
If you have an old phone charger or the like you can use this by cutting it out and tapping off before the bridge rectifier for the AC "darkening" and just use the normal outlet for the etching outlet. This can be put in the case with a 10 amp fuse and a switch connected into the wire supplying the unit. A three way switch can be used to toggle the outlet wiring to suitable jacks.
An interesting build.
Hi, could i also have the plans please, can't find your webb site
thanks in advance
The link to your web site says it is not connected to a website yet??
George the Link you provided gets a error message "Looks Like This Domain Isn't
Connected To A Website Yet!" I would like to have the link to your Electro Etcher!
Ralph
When I click on the link I get an error message saying that domain isn't connected to a web site yet.
Chris Reeves, knife maker did. Quit taking credit for other peoples work.
