I see alot of box mods, i set my sails to build a different mod, I love the functionality of the vtr, i discovered the vtr's "seceret after i dropped it and dented the extension tube .. here's the pics of it in progress.. it's my only mod, so any extensive work to her will wait untill my next upgrade.. i have my sights on a few 50-200 watt mods

still learning how to post pics.. i'll have better pics soon
Stage 1 of process
Debatting on going on a "force patina" , and a clear coat, or sand it down to the bare material and leaving it "au natural"

Another option would be a wrap. They have a Patina line. J-Wraps

 

[Redman Jones]

wraps take the fun out of it lol , i was shocked to find brass and copper under the finish
