♚ Ending the year with something fit for a king. As the final projects of the year take shape, this Reel captures one of our favourites: a chess King machined from raw material using smooth MasterCAM toolpaths and carefully tuned finishing passes. Complex curves, steady cuts, and that moment when the form finally appears… the kind of machining that reminds you why you love the process 👀⚙️ Created with Genetec, this is precision, patience, and craftsmanship, a perfect way to close out the year.

👌 Haas Y-Axis lathe in action @sbsoloco "The more projects I do on this #Haascnc ST-20Y machine, the more I lean toward rough milling small bores vs. using a boring tool. It's better chip management and I have fewer bore tools to buy. I'm really happy I sprung for the live tooling option. It’s been useful in so many ways I hadn’t thought of until running this lathe. All programmed in @mastercam with their mill-turn machine environment." | Haas Automation UK
