CNC with no sharp edges with form
CNC with no sharp edges with form
(OP)
Hi Guys,
I want to design a form that goes over the skin as it is low volume I was thinking CNC that will then be thermoformed but I do not want any sharp edges that may cause cuts.
The CNC inner pattern may change but the overall form will stay the same.
Has anyone done this before? Or has anyone got anymore ideas?
Thanks for the help,
Wayne.

You want to CnC a shape then thermoform it.
From what you have said, I see no reason why you can't just cut the shape out of sheet and thermoform the sheet.
