That would require indexing the collet to get the stock at

If you have some sort of mill with the required travel, the
easiest thing might be to do two pieces at a time.
Clamp/indicate a straight piece of bar stock on your mill table
[even a Bridgeport should do fine no cnc necessary] and clamp two
pieces of square aluminium against the guide, and run a 90 degree
included angle endmill between the two pieces. Rotate stock 3
times.
For sample end mill see

Good luck and let the group know how you make out.
