R&D of photoresist material in a two car garage -Tucson, AZ.
1983
The innovation continued after the turn of the century. Rayzist made major advancements in photoresist film as well as the design of sandcarving systems.
1979
Back in the 1970’s, Raymond L. Zukowski really didn’t know how far his idea would take him. But that idea—to develop an easier way to create stencils for carving signage and artwork—drove Ray to create Rayzist Photomask, Inc. Ray worked tirelessly from his Arizona garage for several years, before hiring his friend Randy S. Willis to help him. The twoman team reached a milestone in 1983, when they secured a large order for the U.S. Olympics. Suddenly, Rayzist Photomask was tasked to produce 250,000 photoresist stencils. The mid-to-late 1980’s were a time of fast growth and progress for Rayzist; Ray and Randy became trusted partners in the stained glass, glass art, signage and monument industries. They began producing sandcarving equipment and materials for resale. This growth prompted Rayzist’s relocation to a 35,000 square foot facility in Vista, California. By 1990, Rayzist Photomask was developing a strong culture for innovation, producing marketfirst photoresist films and processing systems, while making major investments in commercial equipment.

GETTING STARTED Whether you are interested in sandcarving for business or as a hobby, here are the items you need to get started:
SANDCARVING SYSTEMS There are hundreds of sandcarving systems on the market today. Be sure to purchase a sandcarving system that is built specifically for the decorative etching market. Features your system should include are:; a quality dust collector, auto recycling pressure pot, on/off activated foot switch, gloveless sleeves, and effective interior lighting. (2034VXA adjustable model shown)
ABRASIVE Aluminum oxide or silicon carbide, 150 grit, is recommended for sandcarving on glass. A higher grit number equates to finer abrasive; a lower grit number equates to coarser abrasive.
SANDCARVING FILM The Complete Mask Making Kit has everything you need to produce your own photomask stencils. (see page 7)
AIR COMPRESSOR Your sandcarving system will require an air compressor to operate. We recommend purchasing a heavy duty, cast iron air compressor. It is important to purchase a quality air compressor to keep up with your air consumption of 5.5 CFM blasting at 30 PSI with a standard 3/32 nozzle. (We recommend Grainger model # 4TW29.)

THE ART OF SANDCARVING with I’ve made my living in the d ecor at i v e s and b l astin g medium for almost twentytwo years. During these years, I’ve blasted on almost anything you can think of. I have commissions in high-end galleries, institutions, casinos, airports, private collections, restaurants, bars, and homes all over the world. However, it has always been my opinion that it doesn’t matter what I can do, if I can’t teach others to succeed as well. Rayzist and I are working together to bring you a set of unique classes that will revolutionize the blasting curriculum as we now know it. Butch Young graduated from the University of New Mexico with major degrees in English, Anatomy and Physiology, as well as minors in Art and French. In 1987, she embarked upon her glass education, learning the rudiments of stained glass, and quickly mastering the techniques of glass-etching and multi-stage deep carving. Butch’s work has been featured in galleries in San Francisco, Hawaii, Los Angeles, and sold throughout the world.
