Where can I get Nitric Acid?? 

G’day, Sharon; What about trying your local high school science
teacher, Technical Teaching Emporium or what have you? Why not
go armed with one or two of your (lesser) creations as a gift for
his/her and/or his/hers and explaining why you need it (not
WANT, of course) and a little bit of pretty please? It always
worked on me when I was in charge of labs - but I always was a a
sucker for pretty please (with rum on top). Shouldn’t have to
beg - but it’s in a good cause, ain’t it? Cheers,

                        *AND*
I'm determined that by the time things slow down next
summer I'm going to be soooo organized that I'll have lots of
time to work on my own creations. (sound familiar?)

Seems to me I’ve heard that song before…!
