Apparently 3D printing falls under the CNC umbrella. Today I printed the top featured in the Inception motion picture. It's a lot rougher than I would like, but that's the way printer is set up at the moment. #madeinhere#mostlybyhand#MSCNC#LATTC#3Dprinted (at Los Angeles Trade–Technical College)

Teacher: Your assignment for today, is to work on any unfinished assignments you may have. Me: Awesome! I will work on something totally unrelated to any of the assignments I have to do. This top is the result of today's hard work at LATTC. The top on the left, I machined on a conventional lathe using only a 3/8" x 3/8" HSS bit; I had to manually grind a radius and angle into the bit. The one on the right is the top I had 3D printed a couple of weeks back. #LATTC#MSCNC#conventionallathe#allmanualcontrols#inceptiontop#sandovaltop#highspeedsteel (at Los Angeles Trade–Technical College)

Done. It has a mild steel handle and head, a nylon insert on the left, and a brass insert on the right. #LATTC#MSCNC (at Los Angeles Trade–Technical College)

Hammer head 3.0 in all its glory. The head was countersunk .125" on both ends and it was drilled and threaded. The set screw being used to hold the inserts is a 5/16-18 UNC. All I have to do now is make some inserts for the head and give it a good sanding to remove the surface rust. #LATTC#MSCNC

This is the set up for hammer head 3.0. That is a HHS boring bar coming out of the tool holder. #LATTC#MSCNC (at Los Angeles Trade–Technical College)

Hammer head 1.0 on the left and hammer head 2.0 right. I think I will be sticking with the hexagonal head. These were both failures because of my lack of skill with a tap. Hammer 3.0 is in the works. #LATTC#MSCNC (at Los Angeles Trade–Technical College)

This is what I had waiting for me after class today. I must have really pissed someone off. #LATTC#MSCNC#tireslasher (at Los Angeles Trade–Technical College)
