Pumpkin globe

I used our rotary stage to do the sides, and then sliced off the stem and did the top. Aligning the top with the sides was a bit tricky, but it came out okay.

Matt,

A particle accelerator must make a wonderful addition to a home workshop? Got to beat a CNC hands down!!! I know you have now tried running a pumpkin through the PLS4.60. Will you follow up at Thanksgiving by attempting to run a turkey through Accelerator?? Be sure to share the footage with us!!!

Seriously....fun pumpkin!

By the way....I am not far from you. I work downtown and live over in West Seattle! Nice to hear a local "voice" on the forum!
