      Absolutely, how it's made type stuff is great. I would have liked to see the tooling used to cut the different woods, and if they need different cutter materials, or cutters with different grind geometry, or different coatings, for different types of wood, like we do for different metals.
      Even better, the tech data (sfm or rpm of cutter, feedrate, especially feed per tooth, and the depth of cut).
      The fixturing, or method of workholding, if they screw it down and cut of the tabs or ears later, if it's clamped down, or clamped from the sides, or if they use vacuum fixtures.
      I'd love to know how they locate the parts, relative to the tooling and locating the neck blanks in the fixturing, all of that is interesting to me.
      Btw, Phil, (deg C x 1.8) + 32 = deg F, so:
      50 × 1.8 = 90
      90 + 32 = 122 degrees F
      I do like that they pretension the truss rod on a straight neck, for several reasons.
      Enjoyed the video, thanks guys!

    Good explanation! I saw a few examples of truss rod installing without this piece of wood (above the rod) which fills empty space below fingerboard. Is this OK or not? If I well remember bottom of the slot for rod was flat (not in arch shape as in this video).

    It ironic to learn the truss rod in Warwick Factory, I have a lot Warwick bass, and had replaced one of the truss rod, the truss rod they use is weak, easy to brake and hard to fix.....other kind truss rod is way better.

    So much automation even with high end instruments these days. Great video though on the truss rod assembly. I was always a bit unclear of all the actual process.

    • @DMSProduktions

      What DO you want then?

    • @Metalbass10000
      @Metalbass10000 5 лет назад +3

      Don't think of it as automation, because even before that machine can be programmed, they have to design the fixturing, make all of the components of the fixturing, then assemble and test it, then prove out their process (on each indibidual neck blank location and it looked like more than 20 workpiece locations), these machines are loaded and unloaded by hand, and you see all the hand work that he had to do just those two neck blanks. And all of the blanks as they go through the process of becoming finished next to have to be measured at every step at so many dimensions, and each will almost always require some amount of handwork to get them to the right dimensions and to get them to the right feel, which is even more important than the actual dimensions.
      The use of a CNC mill in operations like that isn't so much about automation, what it's really about is accuracy and precision, as well as a dramatic reduction in the scrap rate, and a dramatic reduction in the lost time due to a worker getting injured during that process, it's actually a much safer way to do things using a machine like that.
      Hope that helps and hope I didn't come off as, "THAT Guy."
      Stuff like this is my profession and one of my hobbies and I just really enjoy this kind of stuff.

      @@Metalbass10000 I have nothing against it or disagree with anything you said. I'm a novice bass guitar luthier and have been contemplating investing into a small cnc machine. My current 3 design's I have drawn up aren't a standard precision or jazz styled bass but my leaning toward a heavy metalesque styled custom designs. My main concern is with the neck construction and getting the whole thing shaped proper. Right now every part of the bass builds I do are with bare bones of wood working tools and lots of manual sanding and filing and measuring.
