A few nice cnc milling machining images I found:
CNC Milled Sustenuto Monochord Knob Logo – Brian Eno Speaker Flowers Sound Installation at Marlborough House

Detail of a knob on a Sustenuto Monochord built by the luthier Jon Dickinson.
The logo that has been CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) machined / milled onto the top also appears as a brand on the instrument. The symbol is explored later in this set, and also the echoes it inspires can be seen in a separate set.
The macro image is a composite built up from several photographs taken utilising cheap extension tubes on an SLR (and with the camera locked in place with a tripod). The rings allow close focusing, but with no control of aperture, a "largest" lens aperture defaults, and consequently a very shallow depth of field results. Using Photoshop to edit a layered image it was possible to preserve some detail from the top and sides of the knob, as well as in much of the base.
See also the related "Brian Eno 77 Million Paintings" set, – an exhibition that ran concurrently at Fabrica Gallery during the festival.
This image is part of a set of photos of the Brian Eno Speaker Flowers Sound Installation at Marlborough House (and also of the house itself) on the Old Steine, Brighton, East sussex, UK. The exhibition was presented by Fabrica Art Gallery, as part of the Brighton Festival, May 2010. The installation includes the poems and words of Rick Holland.
The Grade I listed house was built circa 1765 , purchased at one time by the Duke of Marlborough, and substantially remodelled by the Scottish architect Robert Adam.

Some of the photos in this set are presented in multiple versions made possible using HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography – these variations are displayed with more than one exposure, gamma, "local adaptation" compression or "unsharp mask" process.
Many rooms had their windows screened using coloured Crêpe paper / tissue paper. This gave their illumination a colour cast – which has been exaggerated (or neutralised) on an image by image basis. The actual experience of the coloured light was one of only a slight and soft hue.
In some instances the photos have modified to give an architectural, classical, "two-point" perspective – with forced, parallel verticals.
