Machining Aluminum Isogrid Drink Coasters

This is how I made some over-engineered drink coasters.

I used (and paid for) laser cutting services through SendCutSend, and they were great. If you want to try them out, you can use the link: https://shop.sendcutsend.com/winstonm...
Doing so helps out my channel.

If you would like to buy an isogrid drink coaster, Ihave a limited number available on my website (accurate as of 10/31). Store page: https://www.winstonmakes.com/shop/p/i...
Note: Some of the machining marks may look different from the coasters seen in the video as I've since iterated on the toolpaths.

Also, for the record, Tim Dodd is awesome and I have no issues with full flow staged combustion being taught in diagram form. I just wish there were places that showed how the proverbial rocket engine sausage was actually made, ITAR be damned...
