- What do y'all think, I got it in me to get this thing to be my jig/template minion?
I used Fusion360 for these two experiments. Check out my CNC here, and tell the team I said hi if you end up having a chat to them yourself. And tell Martin I'm sorry for my Belgian impression.

Mine is specifically the EVO-M. I guess you'll see it around my channel from now on!
Love as per, thanks to all the comments and subs I've got lately. Y'all the best.

I'm the son of a carpenter and joiner, a bit of a woodworker myself, and a guitar player. That's why your shared information means a lot to me. I really enjoyed this video. Not only are you a smart and inspiring light bulb with at least 100 LUX, but you are also very funny and entertaining as you share your knowledge and joy of your progressing experience. So there's no need to hide your light under a bushel ... Keep on doing!
And, may I add, quite easy on the eyes! LOL! Please share any cites to help us dim bulbs figure this code stuff out too! One of these machines would be great for rosette pieces and inlays if "code" became a second language!
Hi Daisy. Happy to welcome you to the world of CNC. Now, before the next cut, get a spoil board. That is a sheet of MDF that lives on top of the bed and absorbs all those cut-throughs that are going to make a mess of the machine.
I second that. also maybe the use of a flute up down compression bit, that's good for ply anyway not sure about acrylic. Love your work though Daisy.
@@studiotomm I've never used CNC but this is exactly what I was thinking. We don't want the routing bit to ever touch the metal of the bed.
i believe that's a black mdf spoilboard
@@markknecht9416yeah, I was thinking that as well
@@HansAndreasR1 It is, but it is an expensive one, and much better kept intact. An extra layer of cheaply disposable MDF is a good idea.
Oh Em Gee! I’m so jealous! I want a CNC so bad that it hurts. HA, get it… alligator clamp 🤣. GOOD JOB DAISY! ☺️👍🏻
No, I didn't get it until you said "alligator clamp." I'm not one to kink shame, but let's keep it under control, shall we?
Congratulations on your new piece of kit, Daisy!🎉
A template is just another word for pattern.😉
Make sure to save all of your different files. It may seem a bit excessive at first, but as you refine your standard templates, many of the earlier renditions might provide valuable insight into other projects like furniture or who knows what. Just like your different size scenario ended up being a complete instrument, but started out as what appeared to be an error.😊
Yes, many of your signature shapes will become much more consistent and so much more efficient.
Now that you have established your specific shapes, efficiency really is a necessary step in the process.
Good for you,🤙
Good for you, Daisy! You will discover many uses for the CNC. It is very consistent. Inconsistency comes from the application. I invested a lot in fixturing, various mill bits, etc. I used acrylic for fixture bases. Document everything. Have fun!
This is an excellent step forward. A friend of mine in Shelbyville, Tennessee uses a machine very much like this to lay out his fingerboards and inlay work. Once you have it properly trained, there is an amazing amount of work it can do for you ... with uncanny precision.
Congratulations, Daisy. This will help you a lot. I know you like using tools, but a lot of things are made faster and just as good by CNC. I have a Dowina guitar, and I know that both Dowina and Furch use CNC for parts of their products, but I still see them as handmade.
Congrats on the new piece of kit! I beg to differ on one point in your intro: I'll bet you're the sharpest knife in most any chandelier. (😜) Seriously, no one could do what you've done without being wicked smart.
I hope I do as well my CNC (currently under construction) as you've already done with yours. I also hope mine has the Jedi force-move feature that yours does.
Twentyfirst century lutherie. Repeatable accuracy and jigs without drudgery.
Happy you have a new cnc router hope it don't take away from your hand work .great work !!!
This is going to be great. You're a delight and very talented. Looking forward to the next project.
Wow, congrats; very high-tech. Looking forward to seeing what amazing things you do with this kit. ~ ml. ps: Now, now, Daisy, you have two college degrees, you're an expert luthier, and an independent businesswoman; your "bulb" is very bright!!
Daisy, this is a great addition to your workshop. Its impressive that you were able to build without one. This will really up your game once you get the hang of using it. Practice makes perfect and I am looking forward to seeing what you can create! Congratz!
What’s nice about the CNC is the accuracy. I would think with guitar making that’s pretty crucial. Since, I feel, you’re also an artist the CNC will come in handy with design work. Thanks again for the video.
I appreciate your talent! You make your videos entertaining too!
Try painters tape as a spoil board saver, put a piece under the z and under the work piece.
About time too! Go Girl! Been using mine since lockdown. Learned how to mill just the headstock, including tuner holes, and also my signature in MoP to drop in the headstock as my brand logo. Once you've got the CNC, the world's your lobster! 🙂
OYSTER!!!!
@@ksharpe10 Maybe he doesn't like snot on a plate. Did you ever think of that?
@@ksharpe10LOBSTER!!
@@garyrowe58 C N SEE!!!
Congrats, Daisy! Awesome new tool! 😃
Although it can be a toy as well... Either way, congrats! 😁
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
A CNC machine is an amazing tool. You can make identical pieces, or introduce changes to a design, while the rest is reproduced exactly the same.
You will need a set of special cutters for Acrylic… There’s a different type of material similar to acrylic sheet that doesn’t warp … Trend routers used to sell it… That would be a better choice although its not clear… But you will probably need a different set of cutters or adjust the cutting speed as it will melt n clog the acrylic
You're definitely so happy with your new toy! Welcome to the world of CNC!
Nice! That should come in handy for a few things. Ok, if I may tell you what you probably already know, a Jig tends to be a thing that holds the work in place and guides the tool. A fixture usually holds the work in place.
That was casting my mind back to trade school, over thirty years ago.....so I could have that backwards.
Short and sweet vid this one.
Excellent!!! Great on you!!!! You can pre make bracing material, bridges, Inlay work, Any Shape Sound hole, and the routings around the sound hole. Making a different size Guitar MOLD. YOU NAME IT. GREAT!!!! Maybe you will get into Archtop and or Electric building too.
Yer enthusiasm is infectious! Ya go, grrr....
That was fun, isn’t technology amazing once you’ve discovered how to use it successfully! I loved your green helper with the long jaw and loads of teeth 😂
Sick duct tape job. Looking like my shop space haha
Your enthusiasm is so adorable!
You will want to look into and get an understanding of the proper bits to be using for your templates, fixtures and jigs. Also for the finished stock material that you may make. As you mentioned, you will be utilizing wood and acrylic, so they will be best with different bits. Spiral Compression Bits are a great place to start, and understanding the difference between up-cutting and down-cutting, when to use each and why they perform and execute differently from straight flute or "normal" spiral bits. Since you do very, very specialized work (which is amazing and I love watching your projects) don't fall into the trap to wait until you're better or more experienced with the CNC before getting the correct bits for your work. You will be amazed at the difference it will make.
Plywood done. Now to melt some acrylic and get little strings of it all over everything!
Wow.. cool stuff and might I say that you make an already cool video actually a bit fun to watch :- ) Lovely gal and smart, real world skills ! I do woodworking as a hobby and this made me want to think about making room for one of these machines in the future. Keep up the fun !
When you're more confident with your CNC, I can deffo recommend getting the CNC to drill a grid pattern of holes for screw-in threaded inserts. Then you can use bolts/toe clamps to hold your work pieces.
Thanks for the video Daisy - should make custom inlays a breeze! - Cheers from Canada
Welcome to the world of CNC. Just wait until you get your first neck under your belt :)
I hope we get to see you using those templates in future videos.
I love my Avid Pro 4824 for guitar building. It’s a tool like anything else. High accuracy and repeatability. Love your content. Keep up the great work.
i have just started attempting to make my own guitars (because a high school sent me an email asking if i could help them do so using a cnc) and using my cnc for jigs was my first thought. You are about a week late on this video, but i suppose that's my fault because i didn't tell you i needed it. :)
It would be awesome to see some unique fretboard or rosette inlays with this new machine.
Great addition to the making process. 👍
Been thinking about CNC's recently for a product design. Exciting but utterly daunting. (Would help if I had a workshop... and a brain, lol.)
Well done Daisy!! Brilliant!!
Congrats on the shop upgrade! And yes, let the urge to make furniture loose, become one of usssss.... :
That looks like a NICE machine
Hola daisy. Me elegro mucho por tu nueva adquisición. Ya quiero ver como trabajan juntos : )
Adiós 👋✨️
Very nice! I can imagine loads of projects that you can use it for. Have fun!
I love what this tool will allow you to do. Any code is hard if you've not seen it before, no reflection on this light bulb which is both bright and clear. +1 for a sacrificial spoilboard, then a flattening bit, then Marius' super alignment trick (spindle tramming jig) so that the flattening bit gives you a truly flat result.
So excited to see what you make with this!
Gonna be a game changer ! Well dome
You know you've arrived when you can get one of those things to do what you want it to. But here's the good part: What it produces will continue to be an extension of someone's soul and tears and joy and love and sorrow. How could a hunk of wood and a few scraps of metal do this??
Recommends that you have an MDF board in the bottom that you can replace cheaply.
If you will use it a lot, patterns can be milled to simplify clamping such as RUclips Marius Hornberger.
If you will use it for wood often a simple ways to hold the material is composite nail an alternative when the nail does not destroy the milling cutter, unlike a regular nail or screw.
3:52 When you cut around something go counter-clockwise, when you cut inside something cut clockwise. Look at the bit you want it to chop towards the wood for a clean cut 🙂
I love my CNC machine. I’ve had it a couple of years now. I’ve been using it for making chessboards and cribbage boards. Have fun 👍
Congrats on explaining relatively complicated process. Thanks.
Thanks for the video and the link to Mekanika, I do CNC at my job (huge machine) but only know very little as I was only thought what I needed to know... This might be a nice entry level for me at home to learn more at my own pase. I am Dutch myself, so a Belgium made machine is like very close to home.
if you've seen highline guitars... never mind, if you haven't, he does a lot of tips and tutorials, debunkings, focussed on cnc guitar making.
I could make furniture… NO Daisy. 😂
love it Daisy, I spent a month building my own CNC and when I got it done i had no idea what I was going to use it for. the first thing I did was make jigs to build ukuleles. I'm now working on my fifth ukulele.
Just remembered, change the alligator clamp for a magnet.
Caution, don't let the robots unionize.
Welcome to manufacturing.
Nicely done.
That thumbnail is kinda hilarious 😂
CAD = Computer aided Daisy
Brilliant... but occasionally robots have a bad day; I work with them, they don't always behave as they should. I'd trust your hands far more than any robot.
Hi Daisy, this beautiful device will certainly help you! Aren't you afraid that he will want to participate more and more, so that you will lose some of your professionalism?
Once you get the learning curve with the CNC then it's on to laser machine for laser etchings. 😁
I went into B&Q the other day to buy some light bulbs. The guy asked me, "How many do you want?" I said "A bushel." He looked at me kinda strange and then said "Have you been talking to Daisy?" 😄
Wait till you start using it to cut fret slots! Epic.
I can see some really interesting inlay work going on in the near future! Very cool, keep on growing!
Pretty dang cool Daisy
PRS are scared!
You are a wonderful luthier. A title born of patience and learning. Watch yourself so that you do not become an ‘assembler of CNC made Parts’. I have seen this happen. I understand that you need to find a way to increase production and improve efficiency,in order to make a living. So sad that our world has become so addicted to buy something, throw it away and, buy something else.
Great
Hi and Thank You Daisy! Is your dust vacuum hand crank powered? Also "As we all know, I am not... the brightest bulb... in the bushel..." your point is well made... ;P
Cutting acrylic is fun! If you call destroying hundreds of dollars worth of stock because you keep melting and or shattering the stuff "FUN".
I'm dumb, I didn't bother looking into feeds/speeds and the right cutters. Don't be like me.
Nice, have fun with your new toy. 😊
Have fun! , I'm currently rebuilding and upgrading a CNC I built about 15 years ago.. They are amazingly useful machines.
Daisy, congratulations on the CNC tool! Remember your safety glasses.
New tools are always cool and a must. Bonus if it helps you work faster and cleaner!
Is there a % cutoff for the work involved where hand made becomes machine made to order? Still bespoke and gorgeous!
You'll have to add your kerf (amount of material removed by the working tool) to the offset if you wanna get centered on your workpiece better. Add twice the diameter at least of the tool being used into the kerf, I will sometimes round it up, as a used tool can sometimes leave a slightly wider kerf than a new tool. I'll also calculate the distance of the cut from the other edge of the material, and split that into my offset. That will usually get my cut part in the center of the material.
I appreciate the humour; keep it up!
I enjoy your videos as always. If you ever want pointers on F360, especially parametric design, feel free to reach out.
cool robot Miss Daisy
Stepping up your game I see! Cool. I am a machinist and not a very good programmer myself.
Looks like a great machine, especially the spindle. Yo said you were drawing in Illustrator but the screen showed Fusion 360 CAD software. Did you draw in illustrator and then import it? Seems odd if so, as Fusion is much better for this
Keeping track of my CNC programs was my nightmare.. Only subtle changes between one Code and another.. I quickly ran out of logical names and numbers.. Dates can work..! Aargh
Lovely and you are right definitely not the brightest bulb in the Chandelier LOL do you need a gag writer ha ha ha. Welcome to the world of cnc your are going to have a lot of fun and frustration but the learning curve is worth the effort. Keep on making great guitars and interesting videos thanks
What’s next? 3D printed guitars? 😂
Yeah, your first employee! 😂
Is it just me? It seems a bit weird to use the cnc to make a template then use the template to hand-craft the headstock. Why not just cnc the headstock - then you can do the peg holes, logo etc at the same time? Effectively that bit of plywood *is* a headstock...
That's rather exciting. 😊
congrats on the new tool get ready for sume guy in yt comments to say thats not real woodworking
❤❤❤❤
I Like your french accent!
Imagine making a guitar without computers or automated systems. You would have to practice to get good at your craft. What a pain. Mass production is way better!
Nice
you can always hire me as your robot 😉😉
She would have to pay you and give you breaks, the CNC can also sit in the corner for hours on end without doing anything….😊
But, but, but, but... then it's not handcrafted! That will be the next argument from purists. Folks, I guarantee Christian "Freddy" Martin and Leo Fender both would have used CAD tooling and CNC gear in their day if it had been available. Anything that improves quality and consistency and reduces the risk of waste of expensive raw materials is a win for everyone.
💯%
That's why they use them now. They also use A.I. and a lot of other tech as well like computer generated images.🤙
I’m a purist
@@PG-ex3kl
Do you actually own a hand made guitar?
@@gwbuilder5779 yes, I build guitars so I have many 😊
@@PG-ex3kl
Fair enough.
I understand the perspective of keeping things in the palm of your own hand and the preference of using only hand tools.
Do you use any power tools?
👍
What is your waste board made of? Is it some kind of MDF board that's just black?
I’d love to understand the up front cost and the maintenance costs of that machine. Did you name it?????
