you may run into an issue with too much acid for the solution. I think I posted a link to a study done on the ebonizing process. It has all you need to know about it. -

Tinder/Hinge/dating apps in general
Met my wife while managing a weight room in college. Been married for 3 years yesterday, together for 5. I stayed away from the apps like a plague. No I didn't ask her out at the gym. It was in the library, like a civilized gent.- nhenry

Ebonizing Walnut
I wasn’t too worried about the hacksaw marks because I thought I’d need to cut a greater portion away. I was told they used dowels to attach them, so I was trying to see em. This was not the case. Either way, it’ll get cleaned up while sanding. -

Weird way of attaching tips. This makes my job easy peasy though. -
