nice work, streetfighterkz, nothing wrong with manual mills, I spent 7 years on em before I touched a CNC, on simpler jobs, I print out the CAD onto a4 laser decal pages and stick directly to the plate, then bandsaw and linish with a small 1" belt sander to shape, its surprisingly accurate as you can get actual size prints to work too..and all on free cadware too

Here's a cable splitter I made. Bike came with an twin cable throttle, one for each carb. Syncing was done by adjusting the small adjuster in middle of the cable, very fiddly. Again I couldn't find a commercially available splitter I liked, so I made this splitter and some adjusters to sync with. I binned the BS38 carbs so the splitter went in the no longer required box. Machining done on the the lathe, the step was milled on my small BF20 mill. Knurling done using a scissor knurler I made several years ago. As it was mounted under the tank it was a waste of time polishing it, so I anodised it in an anodising Bath I put together.
