I am making clamshells for toys. I run a few vacuum formers and I always made my molds out of wood. I am looking for something more precise and thought using the CNC would be great or i might 3d print the molds. I have a hard time explaining the degrees and drafts. However I can draw some designs and go from there.

My father is in the Air Force and they just bought a new CNC. His guys need some practice and will gladly cut the pieces for me. I do not know anything about the machine. I need somebody to create the g code.

I am looking to make a clamshell similar to this. I probably will not have the middle hinge and the top wood be smooth.
