I pressed fit an angled stand (made from scrap chunk of 2x4) into a recess milled into the of the back of the coin plaque, then dowel pinned it (the coin plaque and stand assembly)
to the engraved walnut base plate.The plaque/stand assembly swivels on the dowel pin.
All ingredients are pressed and/or pinned together. No adhesives or fasteners used.
This makes for easy break down/assembly and possible future mods.
I'll seal/varnish it this weekend, then I think it will be done....finally.
This is the most fun I've had on CNC in awhile.
Thank you all for the merits. Much appreciated.... and good luck to all who entered.
edit.... added pic of finished job sealed and polyurethaned
