Glass Art Etching With Acid
Have you seen how beautiful is the treated and carved glass? They look like jewels crafted by modern artists and they're as simple as a figurine or an
exhibit piece. Glass art first appeared in the 15th Century Before Christ in Egypt. The Pharaohs seemed to have an affinity for this kind of objects. To
create glass items artist needed to posses some particular skills and to know some crafting techniques. One of these techniques is the acid glass etching.
The beginning of acid glass-etching
Etching was not used only for glass materials. Knights and aristocrats used it as a distinction for their armors and swards. Etching became so popular that
people used it to decorate their plates and goblets.
Etching continued to be used during the Victorian time. Artist used glass ass a material for expressing it. This art became so famous, that it received its
own name: Acid glass-etching. However its popularity started to fall when it was discovered that the Hydrofluoric acid used for etching was damaging for the
health of the manufacturers.
This acid was actually like a poison for those who come into contact with it. Some artisans even lost their fingers because their skin merely touched the
toxic acid. This is why acid glass-etching lost its fame and shine and only a few people continued to use it.
Modern Day Acid Glass-etching
Artisans stopped using the poisoning Hydrofluoric acid. However researchers discovered some substances that are safe enough to be used by manufacturers.
Today artisans use an etching crème which is both safe and very easy to apply for any kind of glass ornaments. It became so popular that people started to
use it for souvenirs, decors and even building materials.
This technique was found its place in the automotive industry also. This technique allows the car producers to etch the owner's driver license number on the
windshield of the car so, any owner can easily recognize its car if it was stolen.
Modern acid glass-etching techniques
Today, thanks to the safety of the substances used in glass etching, many people can use this technique as a hobby or as a small business. For regular shaped
items crème can be smoothed wit a squeegee. Wax paper carriers can be used as patterns for cutting a unique design. However pre-cut patterns can also be
acquired by artisans.
For those who want to use those old and dangerous glass-etching substances there are also some tools that can help them such as the swiveling or picking
knives. For irregular object there are some liquid solutions that are very practical. The artisan must dip the object into the liquid solution for a couple
of minutes and it will come back with a decorative aspect. Acid glass-etching is a very well known and popular technique same like glass staining, glass
fusion or glass-blowing.

How to get small piece of glass out of bong?
I just bought a bong today and when I got home I realized that there is a small circular piece of glass rattling around in it. It is really annoying and have been trying to get it out since,but the tube is too small and I don't know if i can get the stem out. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
Smack the bong against the edge of a table as hard as you can. (Wear safety goggles while doing this).
