I converted a table drill-mill to CNC, and used it to mill out a circle in an aluminium high-vacuum base plate for fitting a diffusion pump. This consisted of milling an annulus. I clamped the base plate, and the waste centre so it would not move around when the final cuts were made. There were no tabs that subsequently needed cutting off and finishing. Why not do the same with the guitar ? There seem to be through-holes that could be used for the purpose

Absolutely stunning !!!!!!!!!! Awesome machine just like all of your other machines.Hatts-off to all of you from me and my mother.Please convey my regards to Mr.Heli.Superb job.

The proper way to do the arm contour is to shape the body blank then bend the top to match the contour using an iron to steam it into shape. Then a vacuum bag is used to laminate the Maple top to the Alder body blank. This is how you avoid the alder showing on the face of the arm contour close to the edge.

a great project, how long does it take to machine the whole guitar.

Comparing this to some USA desktop CNC 's this is VERY expensive.

Great looking machine. You present a great workflow - but I'd never glue a fretboard on a neck that hasn't been almost fully shaped, given ample time to acclimate after machining, and "re-trued". Once you get 4 or 5 necks that warp a few weeks after you finish them you may agree. You step-by-step instructions don't seem to be readily available for examination, so hopefully your toolpaths are such that there's some built-in "relief" designed in that neck to insure the truss rod is under tension. I love the jig you made for drilling into the finished body - that's some great insurance.

Professional wood manufacturing designer and guitar maker here. This is a nice demonstration of what a Hammer CNC is capable of, however this is not a good example of profitable manufacturing efficiency and hence portrays the machine more like an expensive toy. The typical margins on making a simple instrument - especially Fender style - would be blown out of the window using CNC like this. Realistically, the CNC would be far more productive and profitable creating routing and sanding jigs, templates and other working aids for traditional manual milling and processing operations. It's deeply false to say that the various traditional manual techniques are no longer necessary, so I have to disagree with that. This Hammer CNC would have its place within a luthier's shop however it is not a good turnkey solution on its own; I've actually considered this to assist with my furniture manufacture, but it's a big ticket purchase and I do not see sufficient return value as of yet. Still, nice video on how to make an instrument using CNC, if somewhat impractical from a profitability standpoint.

As much as I love the idea of what this technology can do, I have to agree with you Tristan and was thinking much the same whilst watching the video about it being an excellent tool for making templates and radius sanding blocks etc. The amount of expensive wood being wasted here could be vastly reduced though I guess by using an MDF or plywood substrate with the tonewoods, to work around the clamping/waste material issue? I assume the big guitar factories in Indonesia and China are already using CNC as much as possible, but we all know this does not produce instruments of the same quality as those produced by the best luthiers, or worth anything like their instruments (even once a skilled luthier has set them up properly, or as good as you can with what you’re given 😉). £7k is a massive investment for any small guitar builder business and even then, their customers are attracted to them for their personal skills and pay the highest prices for instruments crafted by hand, not on a CNC machine. Otherwise they’d just build kit guitars (if you could find any of decent quality) and sell them on. I also can’t imagine many skilled luthiers would have the patience to re-programme a machine or computer 3D model to adjust or compensate for the small changes that you spot are needed as you’re working, instead of addressing it with hand tools in less time than it takes you boot up a computer. I’m sure one day the technology will improve the interface between the human mind and these machines to make it quicker and easier, but that’s still a long way off. All that said (sorry I know it was a lot) these are amazing machines for the right job

@@stephendixon8575 Hi Stephen! Well, CNC is excellent at repeated jobs so really the money and return comes from how well it is integrated into the process on the whole. Warwick/Framus are an excellent example of this, where they are more or less bringing entirely shaped instruments off the CNC after a small number of machining cycles. Then again, they are charging in the region of several thousand to five figures. A CNC such as this isn't powered for repeated cycles plowing through part after part, however I would happily welcome Hammer/Felder proving me wrong here! My main weapon of choice at work is a 6-axis beast (HOMAG Venture 200) which makes short work of Corian, hardwoods and composites. The Hammer CNC Portal feels more appropriate "as a portal" for taking work from the desktop to the real world; mostly for templates and prototyping than "in the material" itself. For one-off jobs, certainly. So the cost of this is £7k as a turnkey product? That's an incentive that is reachable, and I think the "portal" name has its place. Not too much more expensive than a big gaming PC setup and I'm sure that with the right few paying projects I could run this dead into the ground and still make it pay! haha

1st , your post or comment makes you sound like a giant Snob. 2nd, no where in this video do they talk about " profitable manufacturing efficiency ". You said that so you could then imply it's just an expensive toy. It's not mister Holier than Thou. 3nd, they never said this machine is to allow people to compete with Fender. Your statement is absurd. 4th, they show at least 4 different Templates or holders to make other parts. So what are you even talking about? 5th, and this is a big one ...They never claimed that "traditional manual techniques are no longer necessary". They never even talk about "turnkey solution" in this video. " however it is not a good turnkey solution on its own; I've actually considered this to assist with my furniture manufacture, but it's a big ticket purchase and I do not see sufficient return value as of yet." Well that's your fault. Doesn't mean anything is wrong with this CNC machine and most people looking at it are either still learning how to make guitars , looking for tips or looking for a Mid level CNC machine to step up to from the $500 - $2500 range CNC's machines they probably already own and make money from.
