Photoetching things yourself requires a lot of chemicals, work, experience, and money. Its usually cheaper to have it professionally done.

When you say for your steering wheel, do you mean for a model to use teh skull as a steering wheel?

I think Detail Master have Skull Head design sterring wheels for about 5$ - check out their website HTH

@ Russell - I'm just taking my first steps on the yellow brick road to photo etching OZ. If I ever make it to Kansas, I'll let you know, OK Dorothy?

Re: Some help with photoetching

I used to go to Kansas all the time. I can give you directions! however there isn't much there but wheat fields....kind of a wasted trip.....lol

Sounds great. I'm looking for someone who can etch some stuff for my 1/12th Camaro
