Did anyone else make Christmas presents?

20161217_150142.jpg Thought I would share what I have been building in my garage this week. I decided to turn some Christmas presents on the little Syil EX250 CNC lathe.
My wife helped out by running the saw while I was running the machine. That is a fun Christmas memory 20161217_150030.jpg
This is what I made for my sisters

They are simple jewelry boxes with thread on lids.

Here is another present I decided to make rather than buy.

these are angle grinder attachments to mount a buffing wheel onto a standard angle grinder. I don't know if they work but i found this image on the internet so i decided i would try making a few different sizes.Screenshot_2016-12-13-19-37-35.webp
 
IMG_0486.JPG Well I am out of time. I was making some widgets maybe. But there was a Christmas present for me! A new to me knee mill. Dabbler sold me his old one.
 
Great buy John. Thats a good looking machine you have there. My wife was running my hybrid mill this week in MDI (manual data input) and even as a complete noob she found it easy to figure out.
