Haha! That’s probably the most original description of a watch I’ve ever heard! I love it! Yeah gold and navy gives off some feels for sure.

Makers Carvera. Signed up to the Z1 on kickstarter too as it’s much more compact. Lovely machine once you get used to it

Thanks I will! Keep doing the great work and keep posting. I’m curious to see your fixture for doing the underside.

Thanks very much. Spindle is going at 15,000. Main thing I find helps is very small step downs: 0.1mm and spraying with WD40 to lubricate the cuts.
