Response to The story continues

to create the wabi:

"Ramdomly attack the case with a small flat file, creating gouges and grinding down corners and random edges. The pinholes were created by hitting the case with the knurled handle of my universal case wrench. The next step was to polish the case on a buffing wheel to smooth everything out and make the newly applied dents and scratches look like they've been there for years. The final step was to cover the entire case with ink from a black "sharpie" marker, then slowly remove the ink with a jewelers polishing cloth, leaving ink only in the deeper dents, crevices and corners."

Have fun and Kind Regards from N.M.

Billy
