I think you could achieve that shape with a 4 jaw lathe chuck and some accurately sized blanks. Turn it round, move to one side, then other side, then bottom. Lot of work to make a redfin, bomber, mambo, rebel, etc., then how do you load it?
I know its not the destination, getting there is all the fun.

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
