As such, it is a patterned finish produced by the geometric application of a single-point cutting tool .... An engine turned (guilloché) surface may, optionally, subsequently be enameled with a translucent enamel.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>There are lots of images on this page to help with understanding...</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.circuitousroot.com/artifice/machine-shop/surface-finishing/engine-turning-vs-spotting/index.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.circuitousroot.com/artifice/machine-shop/surface-finishing/engine-turning-vs-spotting/index.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.circuitousroot.com/artifice/machine-shop/surface-finishing/engine-turning-vs-spotting/index.html</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
