A machining tool assembly is provided for machining a blank to form a firearm lower receiver. The assembly includes a pair of side plates positionable on opposed sides of the blank to capture the blank therebetween. A template plate having a template aperture is adapted to be removeably attachable to the side plates. The template aperture is aligned with a top surface of the blank and is adapted for machining a cavity within the blank having a peripheral contour complimentary to a peripheral contour of the template aperture. A centering mechanism is adapted to be removeably attachable to the template plate, with the centering mechanism including an opening aligned with a corresponding void formed on the blank to align the blank with the template plate.

An optical measuring and/or presetting method for a combined measuring and/or presetting of a set of profile machining tools comprises a plurality of individual profile machining tools is proposed, wherein the individual profile machining tools of the set of profile machining tools are configured for a successive machining of side edges of stone slabs, with at least one tool presetting and/or tool measuring apparatus, by means of which in at least one first tool measuring step an at least partly and/or at least section-wise concave-curved work contour, in particular milling contour or polishing contour, of a first profile machining tool of the set of profile machining tools is optically captured in an at least semi-automated manner, wherein in a first tool presetting step profile coordinates are assigned to the work contour of the first profile machining tool captured in the first tool measuring step, said profile coordinates being stored in a memory unit of the tool presetting and/or tool measuring apparatus
