    Sure.

    It's 130x130x36mm, two sided machining operation with an 8mm endmill to rough, 4mm ballnose to finish. Ideally I'd have used a long tapered ball nose but didn't have one to hand, so had some silly stickout on a standard ballnose for clearancs. Held down with 3D tabs. Alignment with brass pins - you cut pockets for them on the first side, then the matching pattern into the spoil board. Ugly in progress photo attached.
