I had a request last week to cut some Enigma cipher gears - two sets of 5 with 12", 6", and 3" gears. I also cut a drill guide for them so they could properly place the dowel axles (or spindles) I provided. One set has an anchor cut into where one spoke would be because the theme for the room is submarines. They're going to paint these and didn't want engraving on the teeth. These will be for an Escape Room. Fun job, actually, so we're going to offer these in our Etsy shop.

Dang! Those are intriguing. I think those could only be produced via CNC.

Thanks, Tom! These can be cut on a laser but it takes a lot longer.

Fully understand that, Steve. I'm pretty good with my old 24" scroll saw and could cut these if I had to but not at the price point I charged - not even close. To do these and offer them for sale that just screams CNC all the way.
