    Chuck a piece of brass in the lathe and roughly shape it with the cutting steel, from there a bastard file followed by sandpaper. That and a little time

    It spread underground here and now i'm up to my neck in orders
    So desided to pep up the labels, i'm doing this to be different.

    Black on blue got a bit dark so i went white instead.
