Why it exists
This is the second iteration of a “Butterfly Paratrooper” theme.

This one involved the exhaustive “Engine Turning” technique that produces the swirled metal pattern seen on the face of the enclosure.

Found aluminum TIG-welded and sanded seamless; nothing is cast. Electronics salvaged from consumer devices, repaired and rewired.
