I had jokes. I still had jokes when I finally figured it out thanks to the comments. I don't need another burner account. If I made my jokes, I would absolutely have another burner account.

I'm not a bad person, I say bad things sometimes. I'm trying to be better.

I find that aluminum is the best medium for trial and error because even though it is somewhat expensive, it's easy on the bits. And that is important regardless of the bulk material costs.

Dude your CNC sessions are totally out of hand if you are having to buying aluminum in bulk. Just get yourself some shibari ropes and a blind fold if you want to take your time and make it an extended session.

I know loads of people who learned how to use CNC machines a while ago, but got no job with them.
