Thanks Scott yes i get it now the magazine page has a sheen to it so the photocopy print sits on top of the paper opposed to being absorbed buy regular paper ....cool - yes i'll have to try this method as i only have a inkjet printer
you could try a Tropical Fish supplier for Copper Sulphate they use it - i cant remember off hand what they use it for but i did read this years since - i'll have to check it out
thanks again
juju :)
Of course Juju... i'm a big fan of your creativity & I can't wait to see what you do with it!
Concerning the magazine: I don't have a lazer printer, only an ink-jet, so I had to use a photocopier to produce a copy made with toner. My first attempt was done with regular copy paper but I had a hard time getting the paper off without bits of the toner coming off too. I read a tip online about using magazine paper, and that worked much better. I think the glossy finish of the paper makes the toner stick to it less. Someone else suggested using overhead projector sheets but the magazine was free and readily available.
One more tip... don't by RootKill. It's over $20 for a pound here in the US. I was able to get a pound from a bulk dealer on Ebay for $10 shipped. It came in a zip-lock bag in just 3 days.
Good luck... i can't wait to see what you come up with. Feel free to hit me up with any questions..

Thanks for the detailed description sounds good - but i'm not getting the magazine page bit ..call me thick lol! - so you actually used the Magazine page to print your logo / design on ? - i think thats what your saying ?
the power supply and everything else i get as i used to do anodizing on aluminium so i'm sorted for the power supply i guess the current is pretty low ampage - i'm sorted for the copper sulphate - gonna have to give this a try you got me all excited now - i'm making a project right now using brass so this is right up my street
cheers for your time
