I would probably start by taking lots of measurements from the original A arm and draw it up on Cad... I'd then generate a toolpath from the Cad file. I do have a machine with a "teach" mode. I could clamp the part to the machine table and manually crank the machine around the part... this would create a program but I'd have to make very small moves each time. It would be very time consuming and the program would be tough to edit since it would be composed of a gazillion little lines of code :craz::craz::craz:
