drawing (dxf is fine) of one of your cutouts, tell me what size tooling
you want and depth, then I could send you a toolpath with the approach
and departs in place to see how it works.
Or just give me an overall area I should stay within and I'll make an
inside contour so it fits and runs on your machine.
I could do it from two different programs....
Drop me a note if you want something.
