2019 Christmas Presents

Every Christmas I make presents for family. Everyone seems to like getting something I have designed and made. I'll start off by showing you the shifter knob I just made for my car. The other stuff I have completed so far is bottle openers and a Japanese ice ball maker. I'll post pictures of those soon

Cool. Now THAT would be a bugger to do manually LOL.

One thing I've wondered about those engraving operations on CNC, maybe more the teeny carbide cone tips & almost handwriting shallow depth - wouldn't the rpms have to get crazy fast to cut efficiently? So do you just crank the big motor up high & watch the KW power needles spin around? Or maybe it grabs a cordless 40K Dremel on that tool change? HaHa.
 
This spindle only goes to 12k rpm. I just max it and it does a reasonably good job. Here is another picture of some dog tags and a bottle openers
