Just wanted to share this here. Robbie has a course now on CNC usage in luthiery. This course is exactly what I’ve been preaching to anyone who would listen…. There is a TON you can do with the CNC that will augment your building before you have to get anywhere near complex software, 3D modeling, etc… The course uses the same software I started with, Vectric Vcarve, which is a very simple all in one package for CAD/CAM. There are so many uses… accurate molds, bending / vacuum forms and acrylic templates that actually match one another and with accurate offsets for bending forms being the least of it! You can scroll my Instagram if you want to see how I use CNC. Here is the class - https://lutherieacademy.com/courses/cnc Brad Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

That would have been The Guitar Store Seattle. James really helped me out in the beginning, it’s a shame the store didn't survive Covid. I miss that place. I also miss RJ, lol, I hate sanding…:) |

I’d love to have a small CNC rig for repair-related jig making. If you watch what some of the higher-tech violin repair guys are doing there’s some pretty amazing use of a 3d scanner + small cnc to produce perfect drop-in patches and plugs. It’s an interesting field for sure. But I’m totally out of space in the shop so I’d have to ditch an existing machine to have room… |
