Coming out with Reproduction Russian SKS stocks. Looking for feedback and suggestions.

Pictured is the Russian style SKS stock, I'm test fitting on my Norinco for now. I'm still working on getting a Russian and Yugo SKS for pictures and testing.

Just need to adjust the stock shape a little to work with the surplus buttplates I have and it should be good to go.

I'll also be coming out with Chinese and Yugo variants to accommodate the different bayonet styles.

Why do some manufacturers use metal cutting CNCs for wood?

I was watching some guitar manufacturing tours and noticed PRS guitars uses multiple Doosan 3 axis machines, and Gibson uses multispindle (5) 3 axis machines.

Am I missing an advantage? Or did PRS just make a less than ideal machine choice?

I have also occasionally seen regular HAAS machines used in production wood working.

How do you do dust collection on a metal cutting machine?

Isn't a metal machine overbuilt for wood forces? Spindle motor, axis motors, coolant system, precision and rigidity, floor space footprint, ect, all raise the cost to machine 1 part at a time when compared to a wood specific machine that can do multiple.
