I've been in search for a cnc woodturning lathe but the prices are crazy!
Can any1 help?

From your request I can only assume the mortices are to be in a circular section of the newel. If they are to be in a square portion, as is usual, I'd recommend the mortices be chopped out after the turning is complete.
How many are needed and what material?

I need an initial order of about 20.
