    Wow 2 hours to design guitar and do all the carve detail is blistering fast. You must have also have a very fast CNC,to cut a complete guitar in 20 mins. It normally takes me longer to set them up than that.Then I have to cut them lol.

    Haha, yes Laz101, Jrod has kindly had a number of us over to his mancave to see his CNC and his Spraybooth. He is an absolute wiz on CAD (?-i think thats his design program but could be wrong). We all left his place reluctantly since we could no longer play on his toys and have ever since been highly envious of his talents, his spraybooth and his CNC machine!

    PS - No missing fingers from what I saw but I think he has come close.....

    Laz I think Jarrod meant the pattern took 20 mins to cut. The tele body would take much longer than that I'd suspect

    yeah would need to add a turbocharger to the CNC to cut the body and pattern in 20 mins !

    Yup when 3d milling it takes time. About 3 hours to machine a nebulars face. At 3mm steps for roughing and .5mm steps for finishing 24000 rpm at 4 meters a minute.
