A week barely in the shop
15 Oct 2018 - 3D-printing, CNC-router
I help a local luthier out with some CNC work, and I make some tiny 3D-printed guitars to let me test new designs.
3D printed Fretboard Radius Gauges
7 Sep 2018 - 3d printing, open source
One of the advantages of a 3D printer is you can make your own tools. I recently forgot to bring my fretboard radius gauge set into the workshop, so I quickly whipped up a design in Autodesk Fusion 360, which is parametrisable so I can quickly change the design to the desired radius, and then printed out the gauge I needed - I was back up and running in less than half an hour! To save you the effort of the design stage I've published the designs for you to use!
Another week in the shop
2 Dec 2017 - 3d printing, finishing
Working on finishing to the necks of both instruments I'm working on, and I do some experiments with 3D-printing guitar nuts.
A week in the shop
25 Nov 2017 - 3d printing, fretwork, tips and tricks
A week spent working on necks: carving them, etching them, and fixing them when things go wrong! I also spend some time with a new 3D-printer.
