The first page after opening the book lists the title of the book once more and underneath is written, "Post Proelia Praemia." Another quick Google translation turned that into, "After battles, rewards." What's interesting is that directly beneath this, "THERE IS NO AFTER," is written. EDIT: /u/AtlyxMusic has pointed out that, "Per audacia ad Astra means to Bungie 'with bravery to the stars.' They use it everywhere, the music, the tower, etc." The cover of the book starts with the Latin phrase, "Per Audacia Ad Astra." A quick Google translation turned that into, "By daring to the stars." I think this is just a standard Destiny quote, since I'm pretty sure I've seen it elsewhere. I've tried to be as descriptive as possible. I was unable to find a digital version of the book, so I apologise if you don't have access to it. So I decided to maybe spark some discussion on the book. With the almost four years of knowledge, we came back hoping to find cool seeds of lore that had been planted for us to find.Īfter reading through the book, we went online to look for information about the book, only to find there wasn't as much finality as we had hoped. I hope this tutorial helps you all.A few hours ago, myself and a friend went through the Arms and Armament book that came with the original Destiny 1 Limited Edition. Here is our victim after only 25 minutes of work. This will give you a "golf ball" like pattern. That's it, it's that simple! You just saved yourself $150! Now if you want a deeper more uniform pattern you can use a soldering tip that you slightly round off. If this occurs just take a brass brush and brush it out of the screw. Occasionally check your screw head for melted polymer sticking to the checkering. Twist the iron as you go to change up the direction and blend the dots together. Take your time and get used to the pattern that your particular screw makes. If you're still unsure of your abilities I'd suggest practicing on some scrap pistol grips and the like. Now with the soldering iron all heated up you can start stippling. Our victim for this tutorial is my first generation Ruger P95DC. It would be a PITA to remove the stippling once it's been applied. Take your time here and make sure everything is where you want it in the design that you want it. Now, take your victim and begin mapping out where you want it stippled with your masking tape. After you're done thread it into the soldering iron. Once you have done both your vertical and horizontal lines on your screw, break out your needle file and carefully point the tops of the pyramids to gain a more uniform pattern. I also use the tips that come with the Weller soldering iron kit for fine points and edges. This, of course, creates either very aggressive stippling or not so aggressive stippling. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT! I personally use an assortment of screws that range from very deep checkering to very shallow checkering. I then took my Dremel with cutoff wheel and began to checker my brass screw. To do this I simply used the existing Philips slots in the screw as my starting lines. Next we'll have to checker the top of one of our brass machine screws. Weller 25 watt soldering iron (I use the SP23L model)Īn assortment of 10-24 x 1/2" BRASS machine screws (screws that are already flat on top are best) You’ll need the following (everything is available at Lowes Hardware): So you want one of your polymer pistols stippled, eh? Or maybe a synthetic stock, or a handguard? Well if you’re like me you don’t want to spend upwards of $150 for a polymer heat stippling job, so I’m going to show you how to do it for about $15! First of all you’re going to need some materials.
