great looking build. cant wait to see it all together. i have done a lot of builds with carbon and had to learn the same things. the CNC left burrs that i had to sand off. and the best way to make countersinks is to use a dremel stone/sanding bit and grind at an angle and move around in a circular motion. obviously you already figured this out. i have tried to get others out there to tell me the best way to cut carbon but they are not willing to share. i have tried lazer, CNC, and water jet and so far the best cuts still come from my dremel tool.

Thanks man... I have some photo updates coming... in regards to cutting carbon on a CNC... I strongly believe if the operators of these machines are using higher RPMs
on the cutting tools with a slower X/Y movement over the material, the cuts might be a little cleaner (thus being free of burs)... Yah... I do prefer using a grinding tool for
countersinks...
