Looks fantastic Neil, thanks for posting the pictures of your finished project! You've got up to speed on 3D CAD quickly.

Looks great Neil!

Yes - when it comes to design decisions - the customer is always right. (Unless you can talk them out of it :)

Thanks very much! Now I need to learn how to make this design an arch top with two f-holes . . . f-holes no problem - arch top - don't have a clue :)

Here's a couple photos of the guitar and the guy I built it for, John Acosta of the "Bee Gees Gold" show.

Here's the first 3D body done with the new machine - of course it will look better after finishing. Ruined a few pieces of cheap wood before getting the CAM portion correct. The neck was not cut for the contoured heel but rather a standard heel - will do the contoured one in the model shortly.

Great work Neil! Something very satisfying about creating an object in MoI and bringing it to reality via CNC (and a lot of hand finishing :)

Thanks everyone for the kind words. Can't take credit for the photo as the pictures are by a professional photographer who is also a customer.
