Intricacy is not the issue. Craftsmanship is. A CNC mill will carve a 
shape into whatever material you give it, and it will not care to check 
the direction of the grain, or whether there are knots and burls or cracks.

In the meantime, I have plenty of business, despite your personally 
hurled omens.
