Brett McAfee Hey Cap'n, I wasn't sure where to post this so figured I'd just put it here. It was really good to meet you on Saturday, thank you so much for talking to me, for being so lovely and for the cool gifts! I'm sorry I didn't get to talk to you much on Sunday, you always looked so busy I didn't want to bother you, but I hope the coffee helped you feel better =) (I have no idea how you and the rest of the makers kept going all day, I was pooped within the hour...Jess especially had me in awe of her energy!) Anyhoo, what I didn't get to say was that these past few years have been pretty rough, but discovering your channel last year has really helped me. There have been days on end where I've struggled to get up out of bed, but then you've uploaded a video and that has motivated me to face the day. It might sound a bit odd, but the way you clearly enjoy what you do and the amount of hard work, passion and care/detail you put into each video, from the story to the editing to the project itself...Your videos motivate me to try my best, not worry as much when things go wrong and see mistakes as a learning experience, to keep trying to get better, to try new things... You've helped to inspire me to keep going when I've been so close to giving up. I even found the confidence to come to Birmingham alone and because of that I got to try my hand at blacksmithing! I had such a good experience, trying new things and finding new hobbies to pursue, as well as meeting a lot of really lovely people. I know I'm super awkward and a clumsy communicator, but everyone was so nice! Sorry for the long ramble, I wish I'd got to tell you in person properly but it was so busy! I just wanted to let you know how incredibly grateful I am to you for sharing your work with us, and that I hope everything just keeps getting better for you in future =) Oh, and the 'smiths knife you made over at the forge was really cool, it was awesome to see you in action! You guys were very entertaining and informative =D I hope you enjoy your travels and have a safe voyage home Cap'n McAfee =)

When you're so much of a pirate you forge your own coins 🤣 Great video Brett. I was just thinking the other day that I haven't done any etching in ages. I always struggle with the resist mask, as I dont have a vinyl cutter.

I've had some success using such a method- I bought one of those cheap dye cutters scrapbookers use (the ones that are basically a set of rollers with two plastic plates). I've found if I take a piece of thin sheet aluminium and stick some strips of electrical tape to it, then with the right set of shims I can run it through the cutter and it will cut me out a stencil of electrical tape. I find it distorts very easily when I peel it off though, and obviously I'm limited as to what dyes I can get. I've recently bought some rub down letter transfers for my bookbinding, I'm curious to see how they work as etching resists.

Excellent bit of coinage there Mr Captain Sir! I'll bet removing the vinyl around the detailed lettering was quite a challenge! All turned out great, anywho :)
