I love titanium, and I think it is because you can make it turn all sorts of colors and make it unique to you. Today I decided to heat anodize some pry bars I have, and a Ti spork. I did this to a STR pry bar, a schrade Ti pocket tool(a christmas gift from my mom), a Ti widgy from countycomm, and a spork from snowypeak. I had already done it on all but the schrade, but I was looking rough from pocket time. I sanded all of them till they were bare Ti again. I hung them from a metal hanger I bent into a stand so they could dangle. I squirted som WD-40 onto them, and then used a MAP gas torch. It has all been trial and error for me(most of the fun is just doing it). Anyways here are some pics :)
