But does it have certifications?
TA- I hope you are getting some sort of  class credit for this.... Not that having TI Clip-ons isn't its own reward.

Sadly, no class credit.  But, I am getting machine time.  That, and making the head-haunchos int he shop happier with me, thereby allowing more opportunity to build cool shit. 

Next up is a trellis timing belt cover  [thumbsup]

But, I have my mounting cylinder for the rotary table made, and I have all four of the blocks to make the clamps machined out and sized.  Next trip to the shop will be to bolt the pieces together so i can bore the hole for the forks... then mount it in the rotary table to make the outer profile of the pieces.

what machines are you running your parts on / are you using any software to program tool paths?

The actual parts? A manual end mill with rotary table.  This is old school man.

oh, well for whatever reason I thought you said you were using CNC machine(s).  I was just looking for the make

I thought I was going to, but in the end the shop foreman approved it on the condition that I milled it manually. I can get a make of the CNC machine after I go ino the shop next time.
