The Computer Numeric Control Machine (CNC) is performing calculated cuts on a large block of plastic material, July 6, 2021, at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho. The plastic material is used as a prototype for the aluminum material. When it is loaded in the CNC with the right calculations, the aluminum material will be crafted into a trunnion beam.
