CM Talking Points: Magical Tools " Methods of Creation and Consecration"
Original post: LadyHydralisk
Well, let's see.
I have a kris with an egyptian motif, it's copper and I like that, since it kinda has an air element feel to it with the waviness and a winged scarab on it. I was gifted it by my mum and it only cost a little bit I think, 15$? I consecrated it with olive oil and prayers, sage.
Then my wand is in a bit of state of disrepair, it was originally a ghostchaser (staff with a skull rattle on it) but the skull fell off, long story. I am going to replace the tip with a dinosaur tooth. (a real one) I will have to use krazy glue (yeah magicians use mundane stuff, of course) Wands I think, are very important. It will take a long process of repeated incantations, application of the fluid condenser as per described in my magical potion thread, and intense focus of placing a part of my power in the wand. It is the lingam of siva, the primal creative force. and since I don't have a winky that's pretty important for me to have a detachable one kekekekekkeke
I have this old brass censer with three lion feet on it I got at a thrift store. It has served me well, I think it was used as a magical dish before I got ahold of it. cost me 50 cents. demons don't seem to like brass so I often place it in the triangle to burn incense, and it's befitting with the three feet and circular shape. In fact I will post pictures, later, of all this stuff when I do my next evocation. (Oct 31st) I have not formally enchanted it, except through constant use.
I have a silk robe from victoria's secret that is red and only half length. I use this for evoking in, damn I need a proper robe. Silk is important as a magical garment, this is written in many books and what was taught to me personally. (cocoon material) it's more important to have silk over any other material, but when I go to buy my proper robes one of these days, I will acquire "peace" silk that is dyed using only natural dyes and not chemically processed. peace silk is where the silkworms are allowed to emerge, and are not boiled alive, cruelly. moths are sacred to me so this is important, but there are other reasons as well.
Ok well, the robes don't really need enchanting, the moths do all of the work in this respect. But you will formally dedicate them to your work via words or something. That's what I will do. I will also dye them red (red is the traditional lakota sacred color) in western magic, you use purple, or white for heavenly magic, black for abyssal magic. That's the simplified version but there are other ways as well in the more elaborate systems.
I have a couple of sacred objects that contain entities which are used in circle. These are unique pieces. They each represent a corner or direction, and are appropriate for the corner. I actually use a bastardization of the chinese system for this.
I don't have a magic hat or tiara but i do wear a plastic bindi (lmao isnt that cheezy)
magic lanterns - you know it's damned hard to find oil lamps these days, but yeah, you get a number of these appropriate to the thing you're doing, and then possibly afix the correct color hurricane glass over them to douse the room in the ambient light vibration (like red for mars) the oil inside them is special, herb infused propane. This can create a physical apparition.
magic mirror. a junk window (glass:sand) painted with blackish blue metallic paint on the backside. fluid condenser applied liberally, magical incantations applied. (who loves the part in legend where the demon lord steps out of the mirror hee hee)
herbs, incense, salt
magical journal
candles enchanted with oil and fluid condenser and befriended
you get the idea

CM Talking Points: Magical Tools " Methods of Creation and Consecration"
Original post: Nero
My tools are pretty sparse. I am currently using no tools in my work, only my first two fingers in what is called a knife hand but I will list the tools I do have and the method I used.
My main tool for a long time was my banishing dagger. It is nothing more than a simple straight blade boot knife. I created a simple consecration ritual for it borrowing a little from witchcraft and CM mainly using the LBRP as a guide. It is by far one of my favorite tools. I sometimes use it for my air dagger as well.
My alter, alter cloth, candles, etc are not consecrated in any way. The same goes for my symbols. Almost all of them are printed off my computer and cut out.
My pentacle is a smooth river stone I charged using energy I raised from the MP. My cup is a simple drinking glass I blessed.
My fire wand is a piece of spruse from the tip of a christmas tree. I said a simple blessing then set the tree on fire as I cut the tip off with an axe.
My triangle I am sad to say is made out of paper with everything painted on with markers and instead of a magick mirror I use a high ball glass with a little water and a few broken black pens. ;-)
Instead of a rope I use a outfit of black pants and a button up black shirt. Nothing special.
All in all my tools are pretty sad but they served me well, as I said I am currently not using any of them but if in the future I do then I will follow more traditional guidelines.

Original post: Ekron
My wand is made from bog oak and is tipped at one end with a quartz crystal bound with silver. The other end also has a silver tip and both ends are connected by stout copper wire.
My atheme is pictured here, red scabbard. It is a Celtic Talon dagger. I have great affinity with this instrument and it oftern appears when I most need it during astral work.
My sword is masonic in design with embossed Hebrew lettering as per Greater Key of Solomon. I've had this instrument for many years now and I've never had to use it with severity (yet).
My air dagger is actually a short sword which I engraved myself with the names and sigils of Air. I used to use this for my LBRP rituals when I needed a strong air influence.
My other elemental instruments are not finished yet and because I'm lazy I'll in fact buy the rest. Awaiting delivery of the Earth Pentacle. See link below.
http://www.jp-creativecrafts.co.uk/default.htm
However I will perform all consecrations, that cannot be done for me.
Other instruments I use are a chalice, said to have been used in the 2nd world war by an army chaplin. Again I have great affinity with this item, even when I just hold it I feel its strong holiness. An Enochian chalice which has not been brought into service yet.
Home made black mirror, obsidian crystal, incense burners (various), aspergillum for the sprinkling of holy water, singing bowl for meditation and bringing to prayer.
My triangle of art is made of stout card but is too small. I'm sure the spirits feel a bit cramped
.
All instruments in use are concecrated to the light using LBRP and prayers to God. Some are also anointed with various oils and holy water then fumigated with various incense appropriate to the need.
These instruments are like any other tool they help me get the job done.

I have quite a few tools, some of which are listed below - All of which (except for knife and sword) were made by me -
Planetary wand - rather like a GD lotus wand without the lotus. Divided into coloured bands representing the 7 classical planets, with a black and white segment at opposite ends. Used for invoking/banishing planetary influences.
Black and White wand - simple double-ended wand, half of which is black, and half white - used for invoking/banishing (elemental) pentagram rituals.
Fire wand - ummm, for fire
Also used for any ritual requiring Fiery command, such as the Headless Ritual.
Air Dagger
Cup
Pentacle - double-sided, depending upon whether I am doing inner or outer order working.
Bell
Censer
Scrying mirror - black lacquered dish mounted on a black stand, within which are loaded consecrated crystal quartz
Divination tools - tarot, runes, coins and divining rods.
All the usual paraphernalia - candlesticks, bowls, altar and altar cloths, banners, robes, lamen etc. If you want details of construction, I'll post in details.
All of the above were consecrated. I tend to use a simplified version of the GD's consecration ceremonies for my personal tools.

I have 4 GD homemade elemental weapons, But I think buying one can be better that homemade one - more prety, more correct , more perfect.

Cup. Just a walmart cup and painted with craft paint. (Delta creamcoat).
Air Dagger. a $9.99 Dagger bought mail order (Pre internet days)
Fire Wand. 1" dowel, I made the end with 2 part casting resin just because I had some left over. Now I might use some polmer clay (Super Sculpty)
Disk. I just painted a round 8x1/2" disk (no photo)
Lotus wand, I used paper mache to make the locust flower. (no photo)
Banishing dagger about $100 just because I thought it looked cool ;-)
Consecration was standard GD style.

Nice work Frater CUG. You really can't beat making your own instruments. I've in fact just finished (just needs a coat of varnish) painting my Water Cup. I had a nice ceramic piece that just needed painting for which I used acrylic paints from a local craft shop.

The elemental weapons need not be made in the G.'.D.'. tradition. I have a set of purely Enochian tools of my own design.

that's what i was thinking, but the only ritual i would really need them for (at the moment) would be the opening of the watchtower. Just incase, and because they could assist in rituals, i'll make em anyways, but of my own desine.

However,
You can replace the opening by Watchtower ritual with the COMPLETE Bornless ritual, see Liber Samekh or the Illustrated Goetia by Lon Duquette.
A successful opening by watchtower (or bornless ritual) doesn¨t mean anything if you¨re not ready for the operation in other things such as scrying.
It is dead obvious that you¨re following Konstantinos¨s ¨Summoning Spirits¨. Are you sure you are having success in scrying or you¨ll make the tools for the time you¨ll be ready? That¨s not a good idea, believe me.that's what i was thinking, but the only ritual i would really need them for (at the moment) would be the opening of the watchtower.

I¨ve done this mistake. The reason it is a MISTAKE is that now I ended up with poorly consecrated, nearly useless elemental tools, while colored, consecrated toothpicks would have served me better. subsequently, I made other tools withoutletters and seals on them and consecrated them with a LIRP with the appropriate invoking pentagrams and a blessed physical representation of the elements, some appropriate Barbarous names and an improptu invocation of the element. This worked nicely, not perfectly, but nicely.
