The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) III

Sorry for being "off topic"(?)... I got some garage time today

I played around with my milling equipment and I needed to come up with a custom curved panel for another project so I figured out a quick and easy way to fabricate one. I'm happy with the results.

~10 years ago I used to make a good living doing this sort of thing. The Z is an excuse for me to challenge myself again. I really enjoy the problem solving.
