MMMACHWK(MICKE MOUSE MACHINE WORK)

	THIS MACHINED PART WAS CREATED USING THREE DIFERENT
MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES, PROBE DIGITIZING, CADCAM SOFTWARE,
AND CNC MACHINING. IT WAS DIGITIZED FROM A PLASTIC WINDUP TOY,
THE DATA FROM THAT PROCESS WAS CONVERTED TO A DRAWING EXCHANGE
FILES (DXF) FORMAT, AND THEN IMPORTED INTO A CADCAM SYSTEM TO
BE SAVED AS DRAWING FILES.  THESE DRAWING FILES IN TURN WERE
USED TO CREATE TOOL PATHS FOR ROUGH AND FINISH MACHINING ON A
SMALL CNC MILLING MACHING.		

	THE PART WAS MACHINED FROM A 6061 ALUMINUM BLOCK
2in BY 1.9in 1.5in THICK.
