#bluing

Blue Añil, also called Añil Modamo, bluing, and indigo, is a tool commonly used in Hoodoo and Santeria. It has many purposes, such as being able to purify and cleanse a space when used as a wash or placed on an altar, for gambling, as a scrying tool, and to bring in good energy to a space. It is said to also enhance you spiritually as well. I leave a bowl of indigo water on my altar! Its mundane purpose is to whiten clothing as well.

Bureau of Propaganda Field Agent @f48customguns snagged what he needed to blue the slide on his Beretta 85 from us! He says metal prep is almost done then on to cold bluing for this milsurp classic!

I was able to get the aluminum welded and sanded. I've blued the body of the blade and added a spike to the end of the handle. Next, I'll use epoxy and pins to put the wood on the handle. #scarysharp #aluminumwelding #aluminum #weapons #battleaxe #bluing #axe #spike #badass (at Los Angeles, California)
