Hello everyone. So the shop I work at got a job in for some pool table legs. We will be turning these on a Mattison lathe and then they will be coming over to my CNC table to do some fluting on each side. I will be doing these on the barrel of each side with has a curve to it. And also the outside flutes curve as different direction as well. I have Aspire and and new to the 3d part of it. I'm looking to see if anyone has any advice on starting this project and how I can go about making the correct toolpaths for what I am looking for. I have pictures included in this port and a picture of my program showing that I do have a drawing of the table leg to use for reference. I am Just wondering how to turn the barrel part into some 3d to have toolpaths on (if that makes any sense)!
I know there is a ton more knowledge on here than what I possess, which is why I am starting my adventure here!
Thanks in advance!
