How do people cut sharp inside corners, like the triangles shown? This example is cut in stone but I have seen similar features on wooden building blocks.

On rock or wood, it'd think it'd be cut with chisels, or some kind of hand tool, rather than any kind of machinist's tooling, but I'm not a mason or a woodworker. (Not a machinist either, I just like making stuff and like following the communities for different skills/disciplines)

Using a custom die is still technically machining. But I have no idea if you can die-sink natural rock...
