Making a Bass Guitar Case
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- We started by cutting 2.2 x 6 cm spruce slats to a length of 130 cm. All together 42 slats, 21 for each side of the case. For gluing, we used two component melamine glue from Akzo nobel with open time of 45 minutes. We use this same glue for glulam beams, Its water resistant, has great mechanical properties and has a great resistance to high heath. After gluing blanks, as I was walking trough the workshop, I noticed an old failed wall art project I did for you tube two years ago and thought it would fit perfect on the guitar case. It would certainly spruce up the project so I dug up a 3d file and the size fitted almost perfectly when scaled down to case dimensions. After milling the inner sides of both pieces, the robot milled the outer surfaces. For one side, I used 12 mm 4 flutes ball bit and for other side I used 22mm two flutes ball bit to see the difference in surface finish. 12 mm 4 flutes bit turned out to give much better surface and much less sanding was required afterwards. The sanding was a nightmare as is always with soft woods like spruce. It took us almost 8 hours with 220 grit sandpaper until we were satisfied. After sanding, I applied 3 coats of water based matte varnish with light 400 grit sanding in between coats. Insides of the case were lined with 3 cm thick egg box sponge with part of it milled to a guitar body contours to keep the guitar from moving inside the case. As adhesive, we used spray glue for sponge and other materials. At the end, corner protectors, hinges, case lock latches and handle are screwed into place. White sealing rubber D-gasket is glued to the rim of top side of the case and when closed is squeezed to down to 4 mm spacing between two sides of the case. Final weight of the case is circa 10 kg. In the future, we paln to use thermally treated larch which sands much more easily and also reduce the final thickness to bring the weight down to less than 9 kg. The whole build took us 3 days.
I really hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching and don't forget to like and subscribe! :D

That feeling, when you realise, that you need a case for your case to not scratch it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Making simple things incredibly complicated...”
Germany in all of ww2
Not as complicated as you would think actually. Also it would be significantly more difficult to do that 3d circle/ripple feature by hand.

That is beautiful but I can only imagine how heavy it is.
10kg
@@David-ls4qp You have to say it in 'Murican. It's just shy of 23 pounds, Scott.
@@fun_ghoul Exactly what 10 liters of water weigh :-)
@@David-ls4qp i think 14kg with the bass
I mean I can't imagine it weighing much more than a large china hut
Beautiful work. This video reminds me of and old, circa 1950's, cartoon that shows a toothpick factory. A log is brought in and cartoon axes reduce the entire log into one toothpick while music plays in the background.
Haha I remember that one.
Love that woodworking but that has to incredibly heavy. Beautiful job.
Heavy???.... Really????.... A machine did all the work....
@@claudioolasagasti3140 the case itself must be heavy, he meant.
So
As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement ruclips.net/user/postUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
The video baerly started and i can already see this is going to be awesome
:D , Thanks Sekrit!
Thanks Mozart for that
One of the greatest pieces of music.
Good thing I gotta stop by the massive robot store this weekend.
I thought this was going to be an awesome video of two guys on a budget hand building a guitars case lol. Then they break out a machine that probably costs more than my house to do all the work lol. I’m sure that’s what this channel is.. just took me by surprise
Really nice. Looks like a one million dollar case. Impressive construction and machinery.
I'm not carrying this all around town. Looks good but not practical. Must weigh a ton. The foam seal is wimpy and useless in weather, it needs to be buried in the seam line of the case. The wood is goin to warp anyways. The course abrasive Foam will ruin the Guitar's finish. That's why they use fake fur. To keep the polish. These guys don't know what they're doin.
Guaranteed Neck Break With Every Fall (In a Beautifull And Deep Voice Over)
Guaranteed you are wrong
A base guitar does not deserve something that awesome! :)
You win the grand prize for the wasting the most wood on any guitar project!
this is a very beautiful case for which another case is needed so as not to damage the beauty.
XD Thank you!
Awesome looking case but, Now I've seen it all!! A bass case worth more than most basses that will be stored in it!!!
Your videos say, "Pay attention, enjoy and learn if you can." Even the saw dust is art! And when it's done, you are like, "Wow! That is amazing!"
Wow, thanks Juliet! :)
Beautiful
I think having a curly maple top would look amazing!
Finally! A project I can do at home 😉
They definitely have all the tools and space to do this nice and simple.
You guys make absolutely beautiful things. Of course it helps having the right tools (like a freaking robot). But none the less, beautiful.
You had me at giant woodworking robot! ✌🏻🇺🇸
fantastic project and great video to watch... really enjoyed the outer case detail, took the case to a work of art instead of just a plain guitar case. Thank you for posting the video.
Thank you very much Jason! I'm glad you like it!
This is the most beautiful guitar/ bass hard case I've seen!
Now that is one super guitar case. Love your music selection as well.
Glad you like it! Thank you very much Hansie! :)
Although i admire your case most of us poor mortals do not have such complex machines like you do , the case is probably worth more than my guitar 😂😂🤘🤘🤘🤘
AWESOME! A lot of firsts in this video; first time I've seen a CNC used to mill foam, first time I've seen a guitar case that must weigh as much as three of the guitars its holding. When you order wood glue do they just leave the tanker truck in your parking lot?
Thanks for sharing your work. Hope you, your family, and friends are all well and safe.
You are not so far off, regarding the weight.. But next one will be less than 8 kg now when I know the concept works. I would be really happy if I had so much work that I need glue by the truck :D The foam didn't work from the first try, it took some trial and error till I got the right milling bit, speed and rpm.. thanks For Watching J T, Stay safe!
If you listen from 3.52 you can hear it reverse up the drive....🚚
Really cool case and video...I love watching your videos.
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you as always!
I made the mistake of assuming that you must have done what most of us common folk would do and put a thin layer of black foam underneath the layer of embossed black foam, I don't know what got into me, I must have forgotten what channel I came to, this is Lignum, and here, we use robots for everything! Awesome project, a truly fine addition to this already great piece of art. You do realize that you currently still owe us two more guitars and now three more guitar cases...lol! Great job as always, can't wait to see whats next!
Yes I know! :D Next one will be a set of two guitars in one video.. and then a summer guitar project.. I'l really need more cases :D I'm glad you like this one, the foam looks great now but man.. all the trials and errors till I got it right.. At one point I almost gave up and started cutting ordinary felt..
A bright spot in the week...A Lignum video!
:) Thank you Chris!
Absolutely gorgeous.
Wow, that's an incredible case! I'd love one of those for my Gibson Les Paul!
I'm glad you like it James! :D
When I start selling them in a couple of months, get back to me! :D
Would love a behind the scenes of setting up and programming for the CNC arms.
Nice piece of work and design there guys. Well done.
Very nice. Clever ideas to hold down and mill the foam. 3D degign on both sides of the case make it especially nice. Thanks for the video. Cheers, David
Thank you very much David! I'm glad you like the video!
Шикарный футляр!!!
Beautiful...a peace of art...
The moment Danse Macabre begun you earned my instalike

notification squad! that dust collection slo mo was very satisfying! this came out beautiful
Yeah, have to get a decent slomo camera instead of cellphone XD The shop is full of possible shots.. :D
@@lignumchannel can't wait!
SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I LOVED IT!
Bravo!Radite krasne stvari.Zavidim Vam na alatima i vremenu!😀Ja od namještaja ne stignem ništa više🥴Lp!
"Where ya goin with the forklift honey?" Off to jam.
That is a gorgeous piece. My only gripe is with the metal corners. I'd like to see something that won't scratch or dent floors and walls.
I'm an architectural photographer and carry lots of cases into expensive homes, offices, etc. All of my cases are soft to minimize damage.
love the use of Mozart haha. incredible
i love your channel - it is always a pleasure to take a look at your projects. AWESOME :-)
Beautiful hard case!
Oooh, You did it again...! Lovely work Guys!!
Thank you Karl!
Great job. I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for posting them.
Glad you like them! Thank you!
The case is great, love the design. It would be even better with a small box inside to put some strings, guitar picks, and tuning fork/device in. I like the standard classical guitar case with such a box, which makes it easy to keep your basic gear right where your guitar is. My electrical guitar case doesn't have a "box" inside and my picks and strings fly around in the case.
That's a great idea! I'm sure I can implement something like that in my next design, Thank you Peter! :D
@@lignumchannel You're welcome. ;)
Magnifique travail .....
Your channel never disappoints. You make the most creative projects, have very impressive filming and editing, and play awesome music. This is another very entertaining video. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you like and follow my work, it's always nice to see your comment :D
Another masterpiece.
Could you make a video about you?
I mean about your background, workshop and those freaking robot arms?
Thank you, and stay safe.
Maybe one day, I'm afraid that video would be a cringe fest.. XD
I second that. One thing we love is learning more about the people we watch. You fellas are quite interesting. A 5 minute video would do the trick.
Rekao sam ti Grga ;)
Amazing
Employees: i thought we build carports
Lignum boss: stfu and sand my guitar case!
😂😂😂😂
ediii89 "We build whatever the robot wants to build..."
XD yes
@@thatellipsisguy8984 No, the robots do as they're told. They're just very expensive slaves.😂
Very, Very impressive, congrats!
MIND BLOWING!!! EPICO!!! WISE CHOICE!!!
looks like the handle could be positioned better for balance. aside from that, gorgeous build! you should try making one out of carbon fiber and use the robots to carve the mould.
Cool. A basis for making a custom case for my M-21 sniper rifle.
🤔hmm
I am a fan of your creativity Plastic artist and designer from Libya and I have a lot of ideas, but unfortunately I do not have machines
Hahaha
I wish you good luck
Than you, I wish you all the luck too!
2:39 imagine if all your problems would just gone into a ducting system just like that
Dear Santa, I know it's a little early, and my garage doesn't have nearly enough room, I'd still like a CNC machine for Christmas!
Holy moly thats nice! Pozdrav iz Slovenije !
Hvala! Pozdrav! :D
When humans and robots collaborate, beautiful things happen.
:D nicely said! Glad you like it!
INSANE!!!!
Lignum: has high tech CNC machine
also Lignum: uses old tin can to cut the radius of the foam 😂👍🏼
Awesome work! Really like the way the waves intersect!
XD yeah, sometimes I kinda miss these things :D . I'm glad you like it Hannes!
Just stunning! 🤟
What a beautiful piece, but isn't it very heavy?
It's circa 10 kg. Now when I see how heavy duty this one is, i'm sure that I can reduce weight by 20 percent just by reducing unnecessary wood thickness.
lignum do you have concern for warping when you mill down a laminated block?
No warping at all with laminated wood
Cool video and assume woodworking like your other projects. I had road case with that type of foam and after a while it broke down into crumbs, might consider a harder foam with a fabric covering. Love the attention to the details.
Verdadeira obra de arte!!!!
Some impressive workshop tools there. Fabulous case but so wasteful on wood!
Nice!
Absolutely beautiful work as always! Really glad to see the bots doing some 3D contour work, hoping now that you have something big planned for the other one! Keep up the amazing work mate!
Thank you Brett! I'm working on my next guitars, and they will all need cases ;)
Beautifull!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I hope this video was filmed before the pandemic. No face masks, no working from home, no social distancing. Either that or all measures have been relaxed in your country.
Croatia reacted on time and total number of infected is around 2200. The peak here was a month and a half ago, average number of newly infected is less than 10 people per day now and almost all restrictions are lifted. They slowly removed restrictions over the last 3 weeks. But two months ago I had to move to the workshop for the period of three weeks so I could continue work..
I think this is completely neat. Ive got no comments. Theses dudes work with wood and make instruments. What did you expect? Them not to craft a w o o d case if they can? By the way, amazing design.
To the roadie: "You carry the bass; I'll move the SVT stack ... "
Also - Am I the only one that thinks about dust control all the way through these videos?
Superb!
Thanks a lot Bruno! :)
my arm would fall out of my socket carrying that thing around
I love your work
Thank you Nicholas!
I would need to hire a couple guys to carry it.
Muy bonito y todo peeeero !cargalo!
i like guitar this
Beautiful job. I would have put foam on the last two compartments though. Try making a case out of a very figured wood like curly maple or maybe cherry,walnut.
Chapeau !!!
Rock on.
Fred Flinstone would love this case
bravo
The design and the work and your robot... wow maaan... are all great. But ? How heavy is it with the guitar ?
Amazing man i love it ❤
That’s how I want my coffin to look. But deeper of course.
Beautiful Work. Definitly unique. It would be amazing If the unused compartments would be turned into usable space, f.e. for cables, iPad, notepad, pens, possibly a couple of Pedals and other little bits and bobs. Maybe a little bit more coushioning for the neck. Staining the Wood darker personaly would Look awesome. Just a few thoughts. Great Job Guys...wow the possibilities!
Only distraction me thinks was the Audio you Guys chose..too intense and dramatic ...(nothing against Classic greats 😉)..
Keep em coming
Yup, how heavy is this work of art that I would be afraid to actually use?
wow very nice work i love your videos
Thank you so much 😀 I'm glad you like it!
Thank you for sharing. Look like i'll make a case (don't know what will it for :). ). Also I think it's the first time I see you use the dust extractor haha. Take care and stay safe my friend .
I'm sure that the missis would like a jewelry case :D Also stay safe and thanks for watching!
@@lignumchannel sound good my friend, a case first then save up for jewelry later haha. I'll keep you posted with the replica :)
Muy lindo .
Pregunta solo el estuche cuaanto quedo pesando kilogramos ?
amazing product gorgeous
Thank you very much Denis! :D
Yes~ That's really cool
Thank you!
😮 beautiful, and expensive I suppose...
Saw dust central.
