How courageous are you? I like to think that I’m fairly durable, particularly when it comes to taking pain, but that DIY project is way out of my league. Branding is where the skin is burned to prepare a scar. In these directions, they use a soldering iron to burn an image into the skin. The permanent scar is called a “brand”. Here’s what you’ll need:

1. A friend who is willing to hold a 450 degree Celsius iron to your skin, or a friend who is willing to let you do that to them
2. Soldering iron
3. Face mask
4. Wooden spoon
5. Anesthetic
6. Emergency first aid

Please note that the composition

we’re linking to here is not a typical site that we would normally link to. While there wasn’t any offensive material on the exposition we are linking to (except of course for the composition itself which is about intentionally burning one’s skin), be warned that the rest of the Viceland site may well have offensive material. extraordinarily, in addition to the items listed above, the composition recommends having some jellybeans on hand. whether you’re still reading soon after you are either courageous or silly, but either way, you might be interested in checking out their full directions on DIY branding.
