Absolutely! That's why I said CNC technology and not CNC machines. It's not just that it's improved either, it's how accessible it is. It wasn't that long ago that pieces that intricate would only be common in the aerospace industry.

I bought Solidworks about 6 months ago and had some help from my friend in the aerospace industry. Wait until you see his car if you think these pedals are cool.

I wanted to make them look like my buddy from airirde, Tony. He is bulky also.

one step at a time, I have to get them in my time zone and then decide which color to anodize. I have few more airbag parts to anodize also thanks to my polisher...

Rog..... I forgot to mention that the hillary campaign is going to be here in town. You want me to go ahead and drop your contributions off while I am on my way over to the republican party dinner ?
