Well it's been a long winter and I decided I needed to make yet another viper related plaque.Driving season is a long way off here,so it's the perfect time to make some thing new.I took a piece of aluminum and machined a pocket the shape of the fangs logo.
The pocket is about .030 deep.I used a .09 ball endmill to get a nice radius on the edges of the shape.The machined lines in it kind of gave it a unique look.
When I made the pocket,I programmed it to go around .02 in after every pass.That way the bottom is smooth from such small increments of machining passes.Took a bit of time,but I am satisfied with the out come.
I then used a palm sander with 120 grit to polish the face.Takes the machine marks out of it while giving it a some what satin finish.
