Cad model from any 3d cad systems, then postprocessed into something like Delcam (probably heavily customised to suit machine)

let the software deal with it and then watch the machining preview (animated in software) then wear adult size nappy while watching it being machined

yes been there done that... many years ago...

The technology isnt new.. i saw a 1 peice turbine being made a good 8-10 years ago... i saw a working 6 Degrees of freedom hexapod working at the same time and also something know as Ultra high speed machining demonstrated. which works on the basis that after a certain rpm and feed speed the power required for cutting metal decreases. so watching a high speed steel tool spin at 100000rpm plus and slam itself into an aluminium block was quite impressive!
