As I stated below, end mill chatter marks...
I actually like the chatter marks. It gives it character.....
INITIAL TROPHY OUT FOR DELIVERY.
This view provides perspective on final size of the trophy.. Just under "18.00 tall..
PARTS DURING THE MACHINING PROCESS
WHEELS ARE "6.00 X "3.875 MACHINED FROM "6.00 Dia. 6061-T6 ALUMINUM
SHIELD WERE MACHINED FROM "1/4 EXTRUDED 6061-T6 ALUMINUM.
Under a more realistic delivery date, I would have used "3/4 plate in order to eliminate end mill chatter.
BASE PLATES WERE MACHINED OUT OF "2.50 6061-T6 ALUMINUM
HERE IS AN UNEDITED SLIDE OF THE TROPHY.
This frame shows the sandblasting I did on the spokes. Unfortunately, text on the base is vinyl.
The vinyl text was a last minute mishap. Living in a small town and breaking the rule of trusting a conversation on phone, burning the text in this semi-solid base was not a good idea however, another shop locally stepped in and hooked me up with the vinyl.
THANKS FOR WATCHING
