Thanks for sharing the progress. Randy Thank you... I didn't want to bar-ground that large of an area, but it isnt really enough room for initials even. So I very lightly pressed a few basket stamps into it to see if I liked the way it would look. After the first 3 I was sold, and set them hard and fast. Quote

AlZilla Posted July 20, 2024 Report Posted July 20, 2024 That August 3rd deadline isn't looking so unlikely, after all. The dye is really going to make that tooling pop!

But might not arrive to my client until a few days after, as I am going to have to order the hardware... My local source doesnt have what I want. Yes the dye is definetally making it pop... Quote
