CAM follower in a part sketch

I have a feature that is very similar to a CAM that I need to cut other feature with. The second feature needs to maintain its position way from the CAM feature just as a CAM follower would. The CAM is made up of arcs. If it were made from a spline I would be all set. Is there a way to either convert the arcs to a spline or make a CAM follower type arrangement in a part sketch?

 

Any help would be appreciated!

Attach the file(s) here.

One method would be to create a Trace using Dynamic Simulation.

There might be easier ways that don't require DS.
