Thank you for this. I have been struggling with how to jig this type of neck up for far too long.

I think it's noble that as a solo builder you are tring to get the CNC to do virtually all the work. I have abandoned some of this 'conceit' and use the machine for accuracy and my hand tools for authenticity in the 'hand crafted' ether.... so back of neck and heel joints are done by hand... and that's it. I can do all of that in 15 minutes and feel good about putting the hand-crafted label on my work.

Yeah I still trying to figure out what is the best use of the CNC

Another great tips and tricks 👌💯

Hi David, thanks so much for sharing your journey w/CNC guitar building. I was wondering what to do about scarf joints for my necks, and lo and behold you nailed it! I've got a small desktop CNC to get up to speed on all the things theory/technique wise (basically only doing peg head veneers and logos). Cheers!

Very cool man!

Great video as always. 👍

Excellent process.

Very cool jig! I'm thinking it will also work for holding the neck while drilling tuner holes and cutting the peg head profile.

What is number 6 called? they stopped having the numbers in the name and I can't find number 6 :) Very enjoyable and informative series, thank you.

Hi Dave, what I would have done is make the jig clampable from both sides, to prevent it from lifting, while being clamped.

Yeah I know what you mean. I kept the right side flush so I can align it on the fence. The base does extend past the end so I can clamp it on that fence side corner though.

Why aren’t you programming the break angle to be machined at the same time as the top of the neck?

If you mean cutting out the profile of the headstock. I’m not using 3-D software so I would have to cut the entire depth of the sloped headstock on the entire neck and also the shape of the headstock would be distorted since it was drawn as a flat 2-D shape.
