Copper clad board etching.

This is something I have wanted to try for a long time but could never get right.
I have now "mastered" transferring toner from a lazer printer on to copper to produce these military insignias.

The line artwork for the RE Badge was done for me by a friend, Jamie Munro-Naan, thank you Jamie, really appreciate it.

More self made Army stuff.

The shields below are all made out of thin (0.01mm) copper foil. I then make silicone rubber molds out of them and then cast bronze cold resin castings.
