The horse is constructed using a series of ever decreasing 'slices' which are joined and then carved. Yes I could easily join two halves and finish the 'inside' where a 3 Axis system cannot reach by hand. Initially, what I am after is to digitise the templates I have, to enable me to better 'Nest' the parts and cut them out saving me considerable time (and materials). If I can scan a completed 'half' then the router could do it providing there is sufficient Z travel and the Z assembly is kept to a minimum size to clear the 'curves of the body.
