Description

Add table saw nodes into CNC machine if moreblocks is available. This allows automated manufacturing of moreblocks circular saw shapes.
https://github.com/minetest-mods/moreblocks/blob/master/circular_saw.lua

If possible, merge CNC nodes that have similar shape with table saw nodes and use aliasing to allow using moreblocks crafting recipes with CNC nodes. This might not be possible if textures are laid out different ways, also simple aliasing is not possible if param2 behaves differently.

Possibly if technic is used require using circular saw to upgrade CNC machine to allow moreblocks shapes to be manufactured, configurable of course.

Research direction

Start by reading moreblocks' circular_saw.lua and comparing its table-saw shapes and recipes with the technic CNC nodes. Determine whether compatible shapes, textures, aliases, and param2 behavior can be shared, and whether the proposed circular-saw upgrade is needed. Done means the supported moreblocks shapes can be manufactured through a clearly defined, configurable CNC integration.
