Swissrail Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Hi I'm doing artwork for etched SBB WRm dining car sides that will have nickel silver window frames set into a recess etched around each window opening. My question is: How much larger than the outside dimension of each frame does the etched recess need to be in order that the frame sits snugly inside it without any slop?

MikeTrice Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 This may not be the answer you are looking for, but it depends on the etch factor the etcher achieves. I used to work on a figure around 30% (from memory) and just as important specified it when ordering etchings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
