I'd ask this same question on yahoogroups DIYCNC (not instead, but as well).

Here's what I am trying to accomplish:

when making accordion reeds, the highest notes (piccolos) are
extremely critical to profile dimension. Typical piccolo reed will be
made out of .012 thick blue steel (48-50 RC), .4" in length, .050 in
width (they are typically narrower toward the tip, may be .050 @
root,.040 @ tip).
