Looking fantastic! That CNC is a beast of a machine - just to be able to think of a design and throw it into the computer and away it goes - absolutely fantastic!

will chop a few wooden wedgies up tommorra and get as many in as possible...best part is they will be reusable!.. i think even if the geet gets released from its stock the stock can still be used as a wedge backplate so will think twice before i trash them and recoop what woods left over..like the qld maple that was from the last build sliced those off the sides and made the centres for this one...
Thanx Brendan...its the throwing into the computer that is the hard part..I can honestly tell you that..Im from africa buddy we are used to sitting around huts baking our gonads in the sun doing as little as possible for as long as possible ...thats the african way...Im totally uneducated left school to work at 15 was in the army at 16 and the rest is just survival , so all this techno mumbo jumbo does not enter the grey matter that easily and when it does it also just falls out as fast...so the last 10 years have been very very interesting ...wish i had had the education from young, Would be at a totaly different level from here..but hey its happening now and its great so stuffit plug it in and make it serve me ! I am its boss and ...eeer swarf cleaner actually hahaha and it gives me toys! so happy really!
really good to discover that stupidity is not the lack of education but something you would choose to be...I choose and chose to learn when i could and can every day..sitting around and smoking spliffs for 20 years certainly gave me a few interesting ideas, but hey those days are gone so now to think whats next is the daily plan!
cheers
H
one for the cnc haters...you gonna love this!
stuffall talent skills or artistry was used here the computer designed eveything on its own,
worked out the angle's,
the curves,
the depths,
the speeds,
where the wood is on the table
,how fast to cut it
when to start and when to stop
, all on it own hey its own by it self ,
one of those inteligent computers called ...wait for it
.......A HUMAN!!!
gotta love machines especially when they do what they told! like in the good old days !
and the binding getting done pronto..that took forever to work out!

Very nice
Lovin your new shiny wedgy thingys, can you post a pic of one?
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
thanx!
sure here ya go
designed it for my helicopters as a servo arm support for high stress high voltage collective servos,holds the outside of the servo arm steady so it doesnt rely on the bearing in the servo housing only..a bearing goes in the big hole..
and now to be used to build bindings!
Very clever
I should have realised thats what they were..... They are much stronger looking than the stamped out mystery metal servo arms on my Chopper....
