Guitar neck and arch top methods

Here is the second round milling a neck profile with the CNC machine. This is a different model - it has a Tele style heel and Strat style headstock. The tool paths are better and machining time is cut in half - this took 45 minutes and an additional 30 to cut it out with the band saw then sand with the random orbital. The methods used for the model are a combination of Jopo's and Barry's. Also the drawing would not be possible without help from quite a few folks here especially Michael. Can't tell you what a relief this machine is going to be - long time coming - it has mostly sat since I built it. Honestly after milling this - almost broke down seeing how smooth the headstock transition turned out . . . :) No more breaking my back and hands with the rasp and spoke shave.
