cut out
"Ausarbeiten" just means cutting out the recess/opening, in a general manner, without specifying the tool or procedure used. I think that "to cut out" is equally generic and will work here.

Note from asker:
| Not so much using components to construct something as constructing components to construct something. |

: No, "ausarbeiten" refers to the act of cutting s.th. out.
