Camera work: good Length of video: bare minimum Explanations: precise enough. This video is an example for every DIY videomaker out there. Videos are for short, precise explanations, not for chatting. Thank you very much!
Great video! No annoyingly long musical intro, straight to the point, perfect execution of the tech and really awesome outcome!!! Thanks! Just subscribed!!!
Stupid fast to the point no yaping about his dog has the runs or his waffles got burnt this morning. How every DIY vid should be done. Take notes. Great vid.
This is truly the best video ever!! Straight to the point, I didn't have to fast forward to the point. Simple and easy to understand! I appreciate videos like these! Thank you!!!
I do like that you show how to do this with tools that are available.... Not everyone has alligator test leads and most of these vids are using 9 volt batteries. You show same results, different tools, expanding options available. Thank you for that!
Brian Sweeting you're part of the reason TH-cam is as toxic as it is. Tell you what, if you don't think someone's joke do one or more of the following: don't laugh. Don't read the comment section, jokes that are 0.001% as tasteful are easy to find there. I had another but I realized you would probably report me. You don't have to like someone's humor, but there's less less than no need to be a laugh police officer.
The rusting of iron (Fe), or the production of ferric oxide [Fe2O3] in the presence of oxygen begins with the transfer of electrons from solid iron (Fe) to oxygen (O). This process is fascinated in the presence of water (H2O). Table salt is mostly made up of sodium and chloride ions, when the impurities are ignored. These inert ions catalyze the rusting by accelerating the transfer of electrons. Oxidation is the process of donating electrons, and reduction is the process of accepting electrons. Oxygen, being placed to the very right of the periodic table, acts as a oxidizing agent, or forces the other reactant to oxidize. When iron oxidizes to form ferric (Fe3+), the oxygen ionizes to form oxide (O2+) and combines with the ferric. The resulting ionic compound is a charge-neutral mixture of ferric and oxide, or ferric oxide [Fe2O3]. --- Ionic solid is a kind of solid matter composed of ions (charged particles from atoms) placed in a strict order that maximizes the attraction and minimizes the repulsion between themselves that come from their charged nature. However, upon contacting water, these charged particles become attracted to the water molecules, so they lose their solid identity altogether. That is, in water, they are just a solution of positive and negative ions, no more and no less. When the water dries up, the solid will reform as the ions come together. Pure sodium chloride (NaCl), when dissolved into a water solution, will create chloride (Cl-) and sodium (Na+). If you will, the salt is indeed *decomposed* by hydration (solvation by water). If you draw up the chemical formula, you'll see that it's formally going through decomposition. However, when water dries up, the original table salt forms again. And this process can be repeated forever. --- Chemical reactions are one-liner descriptions of a chemical change. However, due to energetic reasons, reactions typically don't happen as just described. Instead, any actual reaction can go through multiple steps producing intermediate products and reactants and products again. The series of the reactions that a principal reaction goes through is called its mechanism. Study found that when iron (Fe) rusts in aerobic conditions, the water actually decomposes to form hydroxide (OH-) as part of the mechanism. However, this is neither the reactant nor the product of the overall reaction of rusting.
@@mrrictus Won't work for this process. You need a stencil with areas to be etched clear through the material. Transparencies work for photoetching but where you need to push current through from the anode to the surface to be etched you need no material or a silk screen type mask or vinyl.
Ah come on! Damn, I wish I watched this a while ago when I was in dire need of marking on a steel blade. In any case, this will be super useful. Thanks man!
cool! thanks heaps for that. and great timing - I'm right now wanting to put a touchmark on my first set of knives for a customer and haven't had the wherewithal to make one/ get one made.. so thanks again!
This is very neat. I have a CO2 50W Laser engraver. I wonder if I applied some painters tape and then user the laser to burn the tape away from the area I want to etch then use this process. I'll have to give it a try.
Hi MN , thx for the video! where can I buy or order logo stickers like that or is there a way to print them myself? Greetings from the Belgian Ardennes, Yves.

Amen
@Jamari Cash But why though?
That’s the best video I’ve seen describing this process, straight n to the point. Thanks 👍
I still don’t understand what the battery is for
Brilliant! I love videos that are informational, no bullshit, no ads, straight to the point without a 5min intro. Etc. Hats off to you
This is truly the best video ever!! Straight to the point, I didn't have to fast forward to the point. Simple and easy to understand! I appreciate videos like these! Thank you!!!
I was thinking of using a rotary tool like a dremel to do the etching but hell, this method is much much easier. Thanks for the great video!
Excellent video.
Quick, easy and just enough info for someone who just want exactly that; a quick and easy explanation.
Great tutorial: simple, effective and straight to the point.

Very simple and safe way to etch . Good clear easy to follow video with no any uneeded waffle . Well done.
Wow!!! I’m so happy I stumbled upon this! Thank you! 🙏🏼💞
i like it very much. Video is short, simple and all is complete description.Crystal Clear !!
Awesome tip, by far the easiest and cheapest way to etch steel I've ever seen, will have to try this out tonight
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video..
This is the simplest tutorial of etching that I have watched! Thanks a lot!!!! Cuz Im gonna engrave a ring😗
Well done my friend. Quick, easy and no wasted time. Thanks.
This is super cool! I can relabel some of my hand tools to see the size easier, or for security! So glad I subbed!
Great video, nice to see a slightly different method which appears to produce a really sharp result.
Awesome ! Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Best video I've seen I a while, respect bro
Wow, TH-cam allows this? It features a salt and battery.
Steven Andrews lol, I was only here to pun at TH-cam's expense.

I appreciate your sarcasm.
yeah well neither are you brian.
Cameron Stewart can i make a silly non offensive joke without somebody being offended while at the same time laughing at me and calling me names?
Never seen this type of simple etching before, you just earned a new subscriber!
the world needs you.
Thank you very much just did it to a folding knife and it worked wonderfully! great tutorial
WOW 👍👍👍👍👍 so simple, yet the chemistry behind it is so complex.
Already knew that it'd be that easy. Need no ferrichloride at all , as used to be. Thank u bro!!
I'll be damned. That is cool as hell!! Thanks for showing us!!
Thanks bro, you are my mentor . You clear my doubts and I will surely try this on my knives which I made out of vehicle leaf spring .
That's fantastic, I've seen chemical etching but never seen salt used. Cheers for this definitely gonna try it myself.
Amazing. Easy to make. Thank you so much. Greetings from Gran Canaria. Canary Islands. Spain.
I love your videos, very well done. You show everything that needs to be shown with no excess that would otherwise waste our time. New sub.
Thank you very much my friend for sharing this cant wait for your next project.
Wow, so simple and yet such a great result...I will definitely try this out...Thanks for posting
So it works perfectly or...
Can you tell me your result
Thx... I'll brand every steel that I found with my signature...
Trump fork, Trump spoon. Only the best
Made in china template
WOW....All steel you find now reads "Douche"!
Lol
That my friend was awesome.... TKS for showing us that...
this shows something very extraordinary, really a very useful work, Awesome...!!!
That was actually cool and helpful! Usually these things are kind of stupid!
Wow.superb idea .
Excellent! I will now proceed to etch every single piece of metal that I own... Ma, I'm gonna need more SALT!
Lol
Just subscribed sir you have the best channel out there. Hands down!! Thank you for the info
Best DIY I've seen.

Cool tips. Thanks for sharing
This is awesome!! Can't wait to try. seems so easy and simple
Excellent ... you can use ferric chloride to etch iron... have nice time.
Probably the best etching i have seen with salt and water, would a power supply for led stripe be a good choice?
how did you get the little stickers made? Great videos! thanks
I Hope this helps in providing you an answer.

Frank Fritzges ahhhh damn.
I have a cricut machine to do this
@Lisa Cleary sorry I was unclear! It makes the sticker/stencil.
Ah come on! Damn, I wish I watched this a while ago when I was in dire need of marking on a steel blade. In any case, this will be super useful. Thanks man!
Thats so cool. Is it possible to have a colored itch so the mark will be more & easily readable?
Nice.. 👍👍👍
Thanks for the tips. Where to obtain the sticker with a hollow inside?
Serious?!
Must try that for some designs.. thx bro 👍👍
Brilliant 😎
Where did you get stickers made😀
That's really nice. Thanks for sharing.
Great! Can it be done on copper?
Awesome great video ever very smooth video I do like it.
cool! thanks heaps for that. and great timing - I'm right now wanting to put a touchmark on my first set of knives for a customer and haven't had the wherewithal to make one/ get one made.. so thanks again!
Great work, if i don't have an battery charger how i can replace it?
Awesome!!! Totally gonna apply this in my gear
Cheap and simple way to make logo on steel, thank you

Looks like I have some new projects for the Steam boats now! Thanks for posting
Thanks a lot. You're the man👍👍👍
Wow awesome hats off
