  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Boltman is the man

So a few weeks ago I contacted Mike (@boltman) to see if he could make a custom lighter for me. If you haven't seen his work by now you must be hiding under a rock, but he does a great job.

A few days ago Mike contacted me saying he was sending my lighter back, and it was done but he wasn't satisfied with the end result.

When I got the box today, I wasn't sure what to expect. Was the lighter going to be terrible? Was this another BOTL trick and the lighter was just fine?

Well turns out, as with any great artist, they are their own biggest critic. Mike wrote me a note included in the box explaining that he had a tough time and wasn't satisfied with the finished product. I'm very happy with the job Mike did, however, and appreciative of his efforts to help a fellow brother out.

Of course Mike tried to blow my mailbox up with plenty of bodyguards to accompany my lighter for safe travels, and he even included a brand new zippo insert.

Thanks again Mike, your efforts are greatly appreciated.
