This is a sequence of images showing the steps from a cylinder of wood to a finished contoured post. Toolpaths were created in Aspire, but could have been done in VCarve Desktop or Pro. Wrapping toolpath to cut the initial square block into a cylinder. A roughing toolpath to remove most of the waste for the moulding contour finish pass. A moulding toolpath finish pass to shape the bottom end for eventual dovetail slots. Finally a Moulding finish pass using a 1/8" ball end bit on the top contour shape. Leaving on the rotary axis until I decide the best approach to cutting the dovetail slots. I may have to flip it end to end as I can't approach the bottom end where the chuck jaws are. 4D
