I've made all parts with my dremel. That's why I've choosen some easy 2D parts. When I say 2D, I mean, there is no volume on it. I've got an 6mm aluminium sheet and at, the end, I've got a shape with a 6mm thickness.
Except for the part I took pictures below.. it consists of removing a specific area with small thickness each time (about 0,2mm) and at the end, you can obtain a little bit more complex part. I hope I was clear
Wow, you are the Dremel king! Thanks for the extra pics.
I have a similar setup, a Dremel with a drill stand. The drill stands clamp bit is made of plastic though and quite flexible so I mainly use it for pre drilling holes in wood. Even that is hard to do accurately...

The whole motor plate/diff mount is one piece? Awesome!
Like the others said, nice finish.

Did you already drive it? How does it go?
