Milling a Rubik's Cube? [pic intensive]

My plastic speedcube is nearing the end of its life span (I'm an avg. 35 second cuber w/ partial Fridrich method. it gets lots of wear and tear) and I was considering the possibility of CNCing a more durable cube...so I sat down last night with calipers and a disassembled cube and CADed this up.

Please take a look and tell me if you see any obvious problems. (besides the fact that it will take forever to fabricate and its a crazy idea)

The parts with the nice filleted edges are just for visualization, I have versions of all the parts with normal edges which are the ones that I'll actually be using as a template. (Haven't CADed center caps yet)
