Wow, here’s a cool way to make some etched candy box for Valentines day using some everyday
hacker’s parts!

Speaking of killing you, as we are using water and electricity here, please be supper-duper cautious. I can’t be held responsible for burned fingers, house fires, dead cats or any combination thereof. Please use some common sense!

This is a decent project that should cost you little or no money, depending on what you have laying around the house. The idea is to use electricity and salt water to etch an image into the top of an altoids tin. The same process can be used to actually cut the image all the way through if allowed to go long enough. I’ll explain the principles behind this as we go along.
