Okay, I have been mentioning a new staff I have been working on for a while. Here is a pic. It is so white that I had to spend 10 minutes just figuring out a lighting where you could see the engravings but not so bright where it just glows and is basically a white stick. After much labor I just took different pics of it and joined them together to make the complete engraving area.

Comments, questions?

Do you have a picture of the entire staff? Is it just a straight stick?
Looks nice! I'm curious as to what is says, if you can tell us.

Very nicely done.
Those sigils from the Keys of Solomon are classic and traditional. I've seen them in several different Solomonic Grimoires. Nice choice. I've always been partial to the old world Medieval look.
There is nothing like making your own magical tools, though I do have an exceptional wand that was left to me by an early teacher of mine when he passed away. It also has the same sigils though he enamelled then onto the wood. Do you plan on making all your tools along these lines?
All Best,

Grzl: I am not entirely sure what it means, I was hoping on researching it and learning about it as I create it, but haven't found any information. However, I think it is just sort of holy name/god stuff, since when I was fumigating and consecrating etc, I had to use holy words and prayer.
It is just a long staff, probably 5 ft of around there. I am glad everyone likes it so far, I spent a lot of time working on it:).
I do plan on making my tools along the lines of solomonic grimoire, at least as much as is possible heh, it's hard to get ahold of solid mercury now adays lol.

Re. mercury at room temp., embed it in a wax mould and hermetically seal it between glass/plastic.
Btw I like the staff, what is it made from?
