BTW, great job on the finishing! Care to share any details on how you did it?[/QUOTE]

Thank you

i did the anodizing using Coca Cola as the media and set the voltage to about 45V. It took around 3-4 minutes to get the desired color. Then I put it into homemade rocks/screws tumbler for an hour and a half. It's simple and fun to have it customized.

The stone wash media and tumbler

The green cap plastic bottle is the tumbler I using. All those screws and marbles were used for the action. I need to attach the tumbler to a motor and set the correct rotation speed for the action

The setup for anodizing. I tested it with my Atwood keyton.

A bit of update : the 3 x Nichia 219 Rey sent was in series instead of parallel. Rey told me to correct it by soldering here and there ( which was ok and fun for me ). Now the personalized flashlight was finally ready for EDC tmr

Rey talked me down how to change it. Not easy for my shaking hands

My EDC . It is driven by 2A driver. So I bet heat won't be a big issue.

Nice build.

The Reylight is very special indeed. It's a terrific design - easily customized to the owners taste. Lots of titanium goodness for the money.

It's not magic - I just anodized it to blue then stone washed it. So the blue colored groove area will stay and the exposed area will be stone washed.
