I’ve been learning not guitar making and running my own CNC I got just before you got yours and I’ve had pretty good luck drawing some simple things like radiuses, angles for scarf joints etc in fusion 360 which is free. May try it. I just made a sanding block with a 12” radius for fret work and I’m pretty proud of it 😂. You just draw it in fusion and export as an stl that can be imported into Vcarve. I could show you sometime if you’d like.
3D-cutting of a 14 degree angle requires using a ball endmill, resulting in a scalloped surface, that needs leveling. Cutting the surface flat by placing it in the needed angle can be excecuted with a flat endmill. I'd stick to your method. I do, although I work with Fusion and am able to cut 3D.
It is my understanding after talking to the people at next wave, you can't write g code files in fusion 360 for vcarve. Unless you know how to write a post processor for next wave that will work with fusion 360.
With your videos I know I don't have to wait to the end to decide to hit the like button, I smash it before I hit play.
Great looking neck David! Great video.

Nice video Dave. I think this will end up being a really nice guitar as all of yours do! Happy New Year. ✌️ & 💕

Dave do you have any vids with your jig designs? Great work BTW

I am looking forward to learning fusion.
do you sell a measured drawing of that neck jig

I think what I will have to do is use vcarve for the 2 d milling and fusion with its cam for the 3-d parts
I get something out of every one of your videos.
Thanks brother!
