    I've worked as a design engineer for the past 40 years even before this type of machining was a thing. Because I was part of a team that developed experimental stuff way beyond the comfort zone of most businesses, practically at the edge of the possible, I often got the shop manager complaining that my ideas were either not possible, too difficult or would take too long to machine. It often meant revising my drawings to accommodate the shortcomings of our machines and I was never happy about it.
    And then CAD and CNC machining came into my life and I felt I'd entered heaven. I still get complaints, but we have a couple of "artists" in the machine shop who love to crack such problems. I just have to tell them nobody can do the job because... and that's enough for them to sit down and get to work.

It has a range anywhere from 28-34 Rc which is NOT ANNEALED.

      Then the machine time, tool wear, and setup cost is easily a few thousand, although setup cost would be amortized over the batch if a small run was done. I'd say less than $10k is possible.

    These machines are amazing. I retired from a forge shop. Not a machinist. When I started all dies were sunk either on a Bullard VTL with a tracing head or Cincinnati hydrotel with tracing head. Had a couple big lathes that round dies were turned on as well.
    They were still doing repair and some resinks on the VTL when I left. Everything else was done on cnc mills and lathes.

      They wasn't sure why it was canceling it out for the way I was doing it. It shouldn't have been but it was. I finally used a contouring cycle which allows you to place the g-code for your contour into a subprogram. once I did that and it actually started reading the G41/G42 I had in the code.

    When cutting the lines for the stars and stripes, was it an issue that the surface (the wavy flag) wasn't at 90 degrees to the cutter head? Seems like you'd get different depth of cuts depending on what part of the wave you were cutting on (unless the CNC computes that automatically).

    • @yngndrw.

      I think that's why they used a ball-nose end mill for it rather than the 90 degree V groove tool, as the radius is easily compensated.
