As far as that 5 axis machine, we all have tools we like to see in our shops! The important thing is that you didn't let the absence of that 5 axis machine stop you.
Yea, the PVC lumber worked pretty good for milling.. Painting.. looks to be a different story.. I'm getting some strange results on the edges were the PVC lumber changes densities. goes from High to Low to High to High (new layer) to Low) to High to High (another new layer). So, the paint shows up differently in the Low densities area. Oh Well.. maybe 2nd coat will make it look better.
