Santa stocking holder

I just finished this stocking holder for my daughter. Santa took me way longer than I care to admit to sort out in CAM, then the rest was pretty strait forward. Santa and the base plate were cut on my 770M and the knob on the 8L.

The knob was a fun challenge in the I ended up cutting the threads first then held a threaded insert in the chuck to turn the knob.

The file for Santa is an STL from thingiverse which is why it is faceted.

Looks really nice! Great job!

Did you use 4 axis or did you do it in 4 indexed passes?

Would you be willing to share the CAM file? Was it Fusion 360 or some other CAM?

Fantastic question!
I indexed it in four positions to rough it out, then did one spiral finishing pass with an 1/8" BEM

Yeah, let me tidy up the program and I can share the files.
