Forty minutes used to give me a crisp deep etch. Now it gives me a shallow one, and I could not tell you which session the bath started lying to me.

The resist lifted mid-etch on the third blank. An hour of transfer work and a piece of good brass, gone, and no record of how often that method does this to me.

A customer wants the same blanks as last spring. Same design, sure. Same depth? That lived on a sticky note that did not survive the winter.
