Create multiple machining planes

I do a lot of 3D modeling on a cnc router table 4' x 8'.  In order to machine a 3D part such as a chess piece I either machine the piece on 2  sides or 4 sides by flipping it once or 4 times which is equivalent to 180 degrees or 90 degrees respectively.  I am wondering if there is a way to create a stock with more than 4 sides or is there a way to change the machining plane by 45 degree increments or x number of degrees?  This would help with undercuts.

 

Thanks for any help.
