Interesting stuff, I worked with some of this as an apprentice. We used to make the sheet metal dies for up market brush set male and female, some of the parts were set out for engine turning after pressing. The whole lot was then polished and gold plated ready for sale.

Those machines must cost a small fortune. Turn out nice pens tho.
