Flip milling is kind of intimidating. This seems like a good project to get my feet wet with.

In one of the photographs, 4 green "Shapeoko Essential Camps" are used for workholding, and the other 3 green clamps are used (upside down) for positioning. These positioning elements enable us to flip the project over, and maintain the (X,Y,Z) work origin. Very simple positioning jig.
