1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline

You've got CNC, why angle the vise? Just make the cut angled. Should be real easy if your machine will take a polar coordinate move. Program for your start and end point, and just change the Polar angle for each tube. If no polar then just some quick math to determine new endpoint for different angles

Or is there something I'm missing???

I can do it quicker manually since there's only two pieces each. First I'd have to locate each one for length possibly rough cut the angle on the bandsaw so I wouldn't have to take several small cuts and do a program for each set. I've done it before on some of the other pieces but it's not worth it for the hundreds of different sized pieces. If I had a tiny chop saw I could cut the angles but I would still have to orient them in the vee fixture properly for notching. I would definitely do the CNC set up if all of them were the same.
