Re: pic: CNC Patterns

Plain circles work just fine as well. They are so much easier and faster to produce, especially on CNC turret/punch machines, and even more so when the machine shop is donating their services for free. Giving up triangulated hole patterns that would require a lot of "nibble" punching for standard size circles which are punched out in one shot makes them a lot happier.
