Tired of never being able to see the Terraria tree, I decided to bust out the Aluminum Black

Came out great! Still not the easiest to spot, mostly because it’s a very very fine line engraving, but gave it a little contrast at least.

The Bathysphere caps came out AWESOME! the one half was reacting a little weird and got all splotchy, so I lightly hit it with some 5micron sandpaper to remove the oxidizing and tried again and it came out perfect.

Sorry pics uploaded all out of order.

@Cmchappell97 I appreciate the title edit for grammar but the product is literally called “Aluminum Black” so that’s why I wrote that lol. I’ll put it in quotes
