Lazy man's etchant agitator

Presenting the 5 minute agitator!

Mahto Mahto commented:

Thanks! Ha, good idea. I ended up taping down a couple of round pens for it to slide across, so that they had less surface area to grind across- that seemed to work pretty well.

Also, reducing the amount of etchant so that it just barely covers the board seemed to help.
