Hello, here is a little background info on this unique project. I'm building a small etching tank for making printed circuit boards. In this tank is a rather nasty solution of cupric chloride and hydrochloric acid. At the bottom of this solution needs to be a method for making bubbles of air. I thought about using an "air stone" from an aquarium supplier, but think the chemicals might destroy it. A glass tube with many fine holes in it should work. Question is, how does one put lots of little holes in a glass tube?
Could the tubing be heated and holes put into it with a hot sewing needle? This sounds difficult. Would it be more feasible with bigger tubing, say 10mm OD?
Thanks for any assistance.
