With this project I wanted to try a number of new things:

  • Magazine pages as cheap toner transfer media
  • Copper electroplating
  • Etching Altoid tins with a salt water solution

The copper plating met with mixed success, but the other two methods resulted in some nice pieces.

There is a lot for the SteamPunk in this wonderful little book, but don't assume you'll like it just because I do. I'm about three quarters done and I'll have a full review shortly. - Jake.
