Also, pretty cool. I like designing my own stuff too instead of buying it. It's just more fun that way.

You kidding me? If you can knee mill that well, you are one tallented dude
Ya, it's CNC. I just drew it up real quick for a 2.5 axis profiling job. I've got a CNC mill and lathe at the home shop, which is where we make the majority of the stuff that goes out, i.e. clam hinges, SC'er parts, Lotus trailer hitches, etc along with a host of one-off stuff for restoration projects (currently finishing up a frame-off on a '65 Chevy Truck with a 455 olds and Muncie 4 speed
)... It's a hobby turned to hobby-business in every sense of the phrase, but a fun way to kill time on the weekends nonetheless...
Best,
