I have been making wood lids shown in the photos. I found a hole saw where the cut out is A perfect size. Then I use a 1/4” round over for the top and 1/4” straight bit for the bottom. Process can be time consuming, I have never used a cnc router but would a cnc work well for this application? Make the round cutout (1/2” thick wood), 1/4” round over, then 1/4” straight. If so what is a good machine to use?

or any other tips?

Yes I intend to produce a lot of these. I have made a couple hundred so far. I need a better drill press or drill press operator as that seems to take too much time as I think I need one that is a little more powerful. I get quality “scrap” wood from a friend who has a small local mill. If I were to use a CNC router one day, can anyone suggest a good one that would be inexpensive and easy to operate
