Excellent job! I have looked at all photos in thread again and it can be nicely seen two things, firstly product evolution and secondly advanced and friendly forum community.

Thanks.
Mik

Thanks for the kind words - many thanks to the patient and helpful forum members who helped me learn to model these guitars entirely in MOI3D. Barry is trying to teach me how to do an arch top but I'm still not getting the hang of it . . . here are a few more guitars (necks and bodies) modeled in MoI - the program along with my CNC machine have become a life savers as they help save time and money in they shop - they also do things way better than I could by hand. Turning out a lot more guitars which was a problem before.

Hi Neil, could you please describe a little bit about your current fabrication process, are you cutting these on CNC now?
