Made a few experimental batches of iron acetate yesterday. Curious to see how well it works on ye maple curl. I'm familiar with real aqua fortis and have decided not to spend the money on nitric acid for more, which in itself is nasty stuff. Made two batches of iron acetate, one with cider vinager and another with white vinager. Both contain pure ductile iron, no impurities or other alloys, just iron. Will allow the concoctions to "brew" and shall post results of the endeavors!

Early results are appealing. Cider on the left, white on the right. Image doesn't show clarity and warmth but both have very nice coloration.
