Art, what your pictures are missing, are the burrs from the hand drill used to make them on-the-fly on the side of the inspection table while you are trying to lose .2 lbs
On the serious side, those are some nice circles in your chassis pieces, Art. Very very professional and nice looking.
And regarding the original poster's design, these types of holes look very appealing, and I'm sure they will be a takeoff point for many CNC fabricated chassis' that wind up getting designed here
Nice work!
