Well done! I really understand this documentation.
Hi Max, I really enjoyed your video. Your finished product was amazing. I am a Furniture design student in Ireland, and i really would love to make a Fender Stratocaster style guitar, but I am having difficulty finding a working drawing on line that i can trace over in Rhino. I was hoping that you might be able to help me with this? Also if you would have advice as to where i can source other components such as pickups, scratch plate and dials or just general tips on the best way to go about this project I would be extremely greatfull. Looking forward to hearing from you. Kind Regards, Cormac.
if I have dxf files from my cad that are 2d can I just load into software or would I start from scratch to do your project.thank you.
Excellent, thanks!
16:29 - It looks amazing, - BIG chatter tool mark- Ha ha !
Just curious - with bridge positioning and neck mounting, is the end scale length correct (25.5 in) or did it take a lot of work during neck mounting? How's the intonation?
What software comes with the machine?
Where can I get a cad model of a les Paul?

Thanks for the great video and files. I've had a swift for several years now and have wanted to make a guitar since router bob made the first video for Laguna. Is there any chance you will be re-doing the building of a neck with the files?

Haha well, it only does fit on a larger desk; but even still, the IQ Pro in the video is only 24" x 36" lagunatools.com/cnc/iq-series/laguna-iq-pro-24-x-36-cnc/
10 mins sanding! I spend more time than that checking my sanding LOL
Could a neck thru guitar be carved with this machine?

Since the IQ is 24" x 36", it should be able to cut one neck piece. Might have to do two cuts, but it could be done I think
This machine is great, what is the time from start to finish for cutting a strat body. This is what I want to get for my shop in the future.

From start to finish I am pretty sure it took a solid day of cutting - probably around 7 to 8 hours. Would love to get you one soon!
is there a program with a library of known guitar shape specs and neck specs and dimensions?

Hey Jesse, See if this CNC Project file can help, you will need to complete the form to get access to the free file: lagunatools.com/resources/projects/guitar/
LagunaTools: Thank for reply.What do you mean"The Automatic Tool Changing system? Are you saying the Pro system software shows of/suggest what bit should be used for the next routing path.Correct me if I get wrong. Eventually, it will need to change at least two different bits MANUALLY .
@LagunaTools

Both, yes - the Automatic Tool Changing system allows the CNC machine to switch bits in the middle of a cutting program rather than having to pause and wait for the user to change bits. If you're working with more complex shapes or several materials, it's an extremely convenient add-on Hopefully that makes sense :)

Fair enough, however, that is the Pro model that comes with automatic tool changing. We do have the basic version at $7,045 :)
LagunaTools: What's the different between (24″ X 36″ CNC) Laguna IQ and Pro ? Can't make a guitar neck or a body with Laguna IQ? , Don't get me wrong.I am not talking about the price.I am talking about the Laguna IQ's functions & performances. I mean if a person interests is only to build different shapes of guitars.

The most notable difference between the IQ and Pro is the Automatic Tool Changing system that only comes on the IQ Pro. For a guitar body you'll need at least two different bits: one for the shaping the curves of the body and another to route out for the wiring and plates

I've been trying to get the Fender Neck files that Router Bob did on the IQ for a fender style neck for a long time. If you cut a body you need a neck. I have Aspire for my Laguna IQ and am having trouble with it. Can you help me with it the neck files? I think Router Bob used Rhino too. Why did you sell me Aspire if you use Rhino to draw with?

What model would I need to cut a guitar body & neck in one piece?
@joseloera636

Jeff Gillis The IQ Pro, since it has an automatic tool switch feature. It'll change the drill bits without causing you to pause your work and manually install.
Max! This guitar will come out excellent. You can cut anything you desire with a cnc machine and it won't be woodwork. Working in wood is done with ones hands. Anyone that understands three dimensions in the X, Y, Z can make this and anything else with your Laguna CNC Machine.
