I heard, but cannot verify that some beadmakers would then toss their used acid into the toilet or directly into the canals....not good for the sea life that lives in the canals and not good for the people who eat the fish that swim in the canals.
This is all very interesting.

Speaking of Politics I just returned from Victoria Canada. I bought a bumper sticker, but am not exactly sure what the message is:

I was not going to describe it... but yes that's how Davide described the copper acid bath process. I did not know how they disposed of it though. Very bad.
I didn't want to hijack your thread, but even if Tom is teaching a nonrelease method, they need the supplies! �� I'm all in!
