That was done by CNC mill not lathe. The five small bosses could not be turned. Looking closely you can see the steps the mill made in each pass .070" (1.778mm)you can write the CNC program to make the steps much smaller and closer that would yield far fewer tool marks and a very smooth finish. The dollar cost of that would be far more expensive than these cost. I "bench" finished the tool marks by hand, it took about 3 hours extra but I saved money.

Cheers, 50gary
