RC car rear view mirrors

Here are some pictures of an RC car rear view mirror that I developed for a client.
To start the barstock is cut into short lengths









The length of bar is machined with the OD profile of the finished shape

12 parts are cut of in one setup. The parts are now ready for machining of the backside.













Fresh of the saw














Facing the backside




























All faced and ready for the next operation



















Drilling the mounting hole to prep for threading















Power tapping on my small tapping machine.















Loaded into a fixture to gang machine the angled cut on the end of the mirror
















Into another fixture for another angled cut





























The fixture on its own
