Once you're in 5-axis with normalized tool vectors, you can make creepy shit like that. I've seen where they take laser scanners and reproduce someone's head in stainless steel.

But can that machine utilize full synthetic pot smoke hydraulic technology for all metal lathing?

ok so i will ask...what the hell is it?

It's like a milling machine you'd see in a job shop, but it's entirely computer-driven.

The vast majority of them can cut plastic, aluminum or steel in three dimensions -- X, Y and Z. But the really trick ones have a table that can swivel and rotate as well. This lets you machine just about any surface you want which comes in handy for a lot really complex parts.

Cliff's Notes Version: It's a drill press from hell.
