8-Ball
I decided to take upon a challenge of machining a classic 8-ball made of steel and brass. The whole process uses a combination of press-fit precision, CNC milling, CNC lathe, and polishing. The end result was actually so well polished that it was difficult to make out the brass contours, so I let it sit for a while and oxidize until a good photo could be taken. I loved the look of it. Ultimately, it made a great Christmas gift!
There is a great video that details the process quite well which can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKiHgBhW8UQ
