Pictures of things made in Home Shop CNC

Ivan (r3292c) is a member of the Valley Metal club here in Phoenix. He attended our meeting this Saturday morning and showed us several of the tools he's made for his CNC lathe. He also brought along a goodly number of his creations, in aluminum, brass, wood etc.. ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT! They're even more impressive "up close and personal" than they are in a Youtube or on eBay. The quality, finish, and delicacy are superb.

Don't know if he'd planned on selling a lot of his products, but several of the guys at the meeting were just about falling over each other to look at and buy them. If anybody here is on the fence about buying something of his, I'd suggest going for it. He is one very creative guy!
 
If you have it......flaunt it. And cleary you have it. It's nice if you have the right tools for the job. Excellent work.
:applause: :clapping:
 
Thank you! It's amazing the possibilities that open up once you have access to a CNC.
Well I wouldn't give the machine ALL the credit,surely you had something to do with it. If you can't blame the machine if something gets stuffed up,then you can't give IT credit for getting it right...........right? :D
 
Here is something I am working on right now. CNC only used for one operation but it would not be as nice done manually.

The project is making a set of wood lathe carbide insert holders. Stainless Steel. The CNC part is the bottom flat. It worked very well.

Not a complex thing to post but I was pleased with it and it is interesting.

They are longer shank because those are going to go through a “Steady Pro” tool rest before working the piece. Making 10 for myself and 10 for a friend.

Any of you folks had experience with or heard of CNC Masters Max mill. It’s inexpensive compared to a Tormach, but is the quality there? I have no experience in CNC but would love to get into it.
