Thanks Scott, I don't even want to THINK what the machinery cost:)
And What the heck would you call that HUGE bit, a Planer bit?

Yeah, I'm sure that 5 axis CNC cost a little more than a Bentley!

They were getting a pretty nice shave out of that cutter, weren't they!

Spooked ME:)
Be a modern day "Pit and the Pendulum"
I can just imagine some twisted guy telling somebody chained to the bed saying "You're perfectly safe. We laser scanned you within .001" and so long as you don't move more than .01" it won't touch you"
Oops, I think that makes me twisted :)
Nope. Lacquer fumes!
