First real thing: it's a panel for a synthesizer module. Panel is 7 by 4.25. Everything done with Harvey and Ultratool endmills. Tracing for the lines, 2d contour for big holes/slots, 2d pocket for flat-bottom engraving and finally drilling for small holes. So extremely stoked. Attachments:

Very nice. Looks great. Is this a MIDI control interface for a synth or a real analog control pots for a old time synth?

finished product. drilled, milled and engraved on ye olde power route. brushed, anodized and paint filled. for context the header characters are the top are ~2.3mm in height so some pretty darn fine detail is achievable on this machine.  |

Looks amazing, I'm boning up on CNC with the hopes of making synth panels like this. What kind of bit and process did you use for the text? |

Do you have a tutorial or a good place to start on the finishing techniques (brushed, anodized and paint filled) you used? |
