Holy 5 axis!
Sure beats my 3 axis wood machine, but that's fun too.

Was he serious?  And if so, how?

Material would cost more than that alone.

Machine time would cost more than that alone.

It's amazing, especially the details on the back of the helmet and mouth guard.  Even it's just for show, I still want one!
