    Sorry about the oversight earlier, these two files are correct and as per drawings.

    Images show the stl files opened in CamBam

    In the CAD (Rhino6) I used a "Two Rail Sweep" with the end profiles being the two rails and the scalloped profile being the cross section.

    So what have you been using so far for the open slots ?

    Ive been using 0.5 mm slot drills, I generate the code using Fretboard.exe which is in imperial, so generate the code and scale it in Discriminator to suit the Estlcam controller.
