    great video, you make it looks easy. We just need to try a simple fret dressing job or neck sanding to discover the skills needed and time effort. Great job

    I sure enjoy your videos and have learned a great deal. You seem to use the ball bit in many operation. Just curious what type of bit it is.

      I get that question a lot, and it's strange, It's a 3/4" ball end from my local big box hardware store, you can get them very easily.

    Man this video is gonna help me tremendously with my LP project coming up.Did you tile the tool path for the headstock?.I'm trying to figure out how to segment the neck up accurately like you do here.Is it just careful measurements and attachments to the spoilboard? Also this is a killer soundtrack,it reminds me of David Rowback's guitar playing! Thanks!

    Hi. Are you doing machining in Fusion already or you import 3D model to Aspire or Vectric and do it there? Machining of the back side of the neck is done in 3 phases right, as a separate jobs?( headstock-knee-middle part)Thanks and a great job

    • @TwoCherriesIns

      The CAD and CAM are both done in Fusion 360, yes the milling is done in three sections, it keeps the milling form having a lot of big rapid moves, and cuts down the run time a bit.

      I don't use the stewmac bits either, the .024" are made for pcb milling, and work great.

      @@TwoCherriesIns Actually I was more asking than anything because I don't know and I am curious if just copying a headstock would qualify as patent infringement. If you know, please let me know. Very nice work though.

      @@JD-nq4vb I'm no expert, but if you make a big enough splash they are going to want you to stop or want a piece of the 🥧. For personal use its not infringement, and I find that on a small scale, unless you are publishing UA-cam videos, they wont even notice you.
