Is this your work? If it is, it looks fabulous.

Are you planning an anodizing and refinishing service? Probably a market for it.

Hmmm - you said Jennifer Aniston and hard on, in the same sentence.

I still don't understand - is there an anodizing service being offered or just showing off?

Just showing off some reel i did for fun.
I mainly anno paintball markers, car/bike parts or anything make out of good aluminum.

I don't know about hard on the eye...every time i'm out fishing, guys would stop by and admiring them.  lol

Is this one hard on the eyes too?

Very nice work

Anodizing is a dip to achieve a desired color, but you show a print type, to a work of art similar to a vacuum suck up some dedbrids

Thanks
Took me a few years of tried and error to master it.
I'm the only one that do this custom anodize in Canada.   ;)

Gorgeous stuff!! I can definitely see a market for this in the rod building business, ie reel seats and matching butt boxes.
