CNC machining for speaker /combo cabs?

As in the title. Does any TAG member have access/uses a 3 or 4 axis CNC machine in manufacturing their cabs? Making them in Sweden for export to USA is madness as shipping + customs make them ridiculously expensive.
I can provide full 3D CAD documentation in STEP or IGESS formats or 2D dxf drawings. STEP & IGESS are available in millimeters or inches.

There is a guy here that used one for his cabs.

I don't know anything about them but I believe he said his was a router type CNC.

Thanks Tom. That looked like plain router .... oh, well, I'll keep looking. I have a couple weird angles on the edges so need a more advanced machine. Like the one just 2 miles from place...and then a teleporter...

most likely a pretty ordinary machine with a tool changer would do what you want as long as it is loaded with bits with the right angles

you may not need a really exotic machine assuming all you need is an angles for various bevels on baffles etc

I was put in touch with a good place by a TAG member. Looks like it'll work out.
