Hello People
A pottery buddy of mine, Ron Philbeck is looking for a source of ferric
chloride. He has found a supplier that will ship a 55 gallon drum to him
but he is hoping to find it in a MUCH smaller amount. His wife uses this in
the jewelry making process and they have exhausted the normal avenues of
search.

Ron can be contacted at:

Thanks in advance

Charlie Riggs.

PS- Check out another friend, Tom Gray in the latest CM. This guy taught me
a lot about production pottery when I had already been a production potter
for years.

Ferric chloride is an etching agent used to make printed circuits. Tandy or
Radio Shack should be able to supply it in pint quantities.

You may also be able to pick up some at a jewellers supply house.
