A few good 6 axis machining pictures I found:

Quoting Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Northrop N1M:
John K. "Jack" Northrop’s dream of a flying wing became a reality on July three, 1940, when his N-1M (Northrop Model 1 Mockup) very first flew. One particular of the world’s preeminent aircraft designers and creator of the Lockheed Vega and Northrop Alpha, Northrop had experimented with flying wings for over a decade, believing they would have much less drag and higher efficiency than standard styles. His 1929 flying wing, although productive, had twin tail booms and a standard tail. In the N-1M he produced a accurate flying wing.
Constructed of plywood around a tubular steel frame, the N-1M was powered by two 65-horsepower Lycoming engines, later replaced with two 120-horsepower Franklins. Even though its flying characteristics were marginal, the N-1M led to other styles, including the Northrop XB-35 and YB-49 strategic bombers and eventually the B-2 stealth bomber.
