baluster on CNC Router

Post by George Davidson »

I would like to see if this baluster could be cut on the CNC router.
I trying to use a DXF I made up.I made a 1.625 x 27.375 x 1.625 blank. I think the turns in it are to small :?:
The one I made is from a Cad program and made it a STL

George,

This will not require a rotary play back since it is not round. If you email me the dxf, material and quantity I would be glad to quote it for you.

Thanks,
Forrest
