How to make "breathing ball" from Bamboo

Hello Makers!

I have a friend interested in making a breathing ball (https://youtu.be/ErK9Kep1xsE) out of bamboo instead of plastic. My initial thought is that this a good CNC/Laser project. Does anyone know where I might be able to find open source V-Carve/G-code files? If I am unlikely to find this project does anyone have recommendations on a consultant who could help design them? Thank you for the time and help.

Best,
Josh
