Snow Flake Christmas Tree Ornament

These three dimensional snow flake ornaments are machined from both sides using an alignment pin method to ensure that both sides line up correctly.  The Z Zero plane is set to the surface of the part while machining the first side and then set to the surface of the table while machining the second side.  This technique insures that the thickness of the part is perfect regardless of whether the stock is the proper thickeness or not.  Legacy customers can download the drawings, CAD/CAM files and G Code files from the Legacy Project Files page.
