I never did micromesh mine. I polished it with a high speed buffer, then poly, then buff. it is not perfect, looking REALLY closely, I can see some MINOR imperfection.
but just holding it in my hand, it looks like glass that is 1/8th" deep, for real. it really is 3D. and I sanded off much of the poly.
the coloring and patterning is outstanding ! it is noticeably darker than those pics.
a few more coats of poly and some micromeshing, idk if that would make all that much difference.
now, 15 coats, that may be a different story. but really, I am thrilled with the way it is = called it good.

Anyone feel that earthquake this morning??? 6.6 mag near death valley. I was outside in the yard and heard splashing and looked over at the pool. I thought something had fallen in. Was like a ghost did a cannonball. Took me a few seconds then I realized, oh shit...Earthquake............I went inside and first thing hubby said was oh gawd earthquake. I guess the whole couch was shaking. We are in North Las Vegas but it was strong enough to rattle us a little here even. My daughter called me all scared ( she lives about 15 min away ) She didn't think we got those here. LOL there is a fault line that runs right under our neighborhood so ya, it does happen. Normally they are so mild though it's not a big deal. Sometimes I might see the ceiling light sway ever so slightly.

Honestly. I have been using it since yesterday, and I'm not conscious of using it. Which is good.
Nothing about it frustrates me.
I don't love it like a hand crafted mod. It is just kind of there.
That's good, cause most mods shit me

Always loved that rpg color. So very sleek. What coil do you use in yours?

That's the great part if diy. "Hmm this sounds good. I'll go make it real quick." I still buy juice too though. Somethings its just easier for them to make than me try to figure out.
