Description
Cuts nicely with 2mm endmill. I did the engraving of numbers etc. with 55degree V carving bit. This is quite large (about 16cm x 17cm) so you might want to scale it down a bit.
Please note that this doesn't comply with parking disc standards in Europe so you could get a ticket if you use it.

It looks like it might contain a clockwork to make it move automatically.
That would surely be practical for the driver, and as surely is forbidden.
The trouble is that it looks like it, but is innocent, so you probably will get into trouble for nothing (for looks and design).


Paint it blue and the dial white with the black lettering and have the gearing visible in the back. You get to have cool gears to look at while setting it and the pigs see an official looking parking disk.
