Project: Mythbuster's

admin

Well, I just have to brag about this one, I got a call from a client asking for a steel "mythbusters" sign, only with his name on it.  So I emailed Adam Savage, he gave me step by step directins as far as finishing goes, and I got started on the one for the client.  then I've decided to make one for myself.Follow the project at my website: http://www.funkeybuttdancehall.tk
Reply:So are you gonna try some rusting on it then?  Ive heard of a few methods to speed up rusting.  Havent ever seen them in effect or how fast they take.
Reply:I have emailed back and forth with Adam Savage, and he has told me how the rusting was done.  I will be doing it as soon as I can get the chemicals.  Site has been updated...
Reply:I went and looked at your website.  Pretty cool pics of the signs.  I just wanted to tell you that Muratic acid, which should be readily available at home centers, is hydrochloric acid.  It'll rust metal real fast!  You should see the worn toes of my steel toed boots after I acid washed my garage floor!Jeff
Reply:Yea, i've gotten that much, but i'm going to try a different meathod of etching, I beleive it's calcium chloride, or something along those lines.  I have a friend that manufactures PCB's, and he is going to get me a jug that has been contaminated with copper.Owner of Welding Wiki,The free wiki based resource for weldor's around the world.http://www.weldingwiki.comWe have cookies!
