New Project

Well it's been a long winter and I decided I needed to make yet another viper related plaque.Driving season is a long way off here,so it's the perfect time to make some thing new.I took a piece of aluminum and machined a pocket the shape of the fangs logo.
The pocket is about .030 deep.I used a .09 ball endmill to get a nice radius on the edges of the shape.The machined lines in it kind of gave it a unique look.

When I made the pocket,I programmed it to go around .02 in after every pass.That way the bottom is smooth from such small increments of machining passes.Took a bit of time,but I am satisfied with the out come.

I then used a palm sander with 120 grit to polish the face.Takes the machine marks out of it while giving it a some what satin finish.

I don't make them to sell.Besides with low quantity and material costs and machining,I don't think it would be cost effective.
Plus it's against house rules!

I just fill my house with viper trinkets.:)
Here is the one I machined today.Had to make a Sneaky Pete.

This is mean to keep showing them and not offering them for sale. I can't do the million dollars. You really really don't want my first born. So here is my final offer. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

Part of those is also to please take the first born.

I get that you can't sell them because of licensing issues, but those are really nice pieces of art!! Rembrandt has nothing on you!

Regards,
Aaron

Thanks for the warning on your first born!:)Like Arron said , licensing issues.I don't mean to tease any one with this.I am just showing what a little creativity and WAY TO MUCH TIME on my hands can do.
I know there are alot of talented people out there and would like to see what they made viper related!
So any one with some thing to share, would love to see it.

Thanks for the comps Aaron

Howzabout you just *GIVE* them away and we will make a tax-deductible charitable donation to whatever address you want us to send it to? :)
