Timber Gunstocks, CNC and Digital Scanning

Post by Spadfa » 17 Jun 2026, 12:23 pm

Hi All.
Here's a few pics of a couple of stocks I recently carved on the CNC. Technology is awesome these days. These stocks were digitally scanned, modified in CAD and produced on my multihead CNC machine. Our only limitation is our own imagination.

Yes -- CNC technology is awesome. Checkering is done using 4th Axis.

That's unreal. Is it expensive to get into?
Is the programming fairly straightforward or do you have to have a background in industrial machine programming i.e. laser cutters, plasma ?

They come out really nice.
Well done.

Do you plan on selling them, or more for your own enjoyment?
