Hobby CNC machines are so affordable these days it really is a good way to start. When I was 1st getting into the hobby I looked into it and had most of the essential tools needed. Maybe not as good of quality as needed to do it well, but enough. The main ones I was missing were for making the fretboard, and I really wanted to make that myself. When I looked at the cost of the tools to properly radius a fretboard and do precise fret slots, the CNC was a no brainer. it wasn't much more expensive and I could use it for so much more.
Chris, thank you for all the guidance when I 1st started. Your videos really helped me learn how to build a guitar and also helped me pick the best way to start for me.
One of my favorite advantages with the CNC is that you can do more than one thing at once. Such as... Fret the neck while the body is being carved. Or prep the next body blank while the neck is being carved.
Not gonna lie, I was hoping you were going full 80s Rocker Hair. 😀 Looking good, Sir. Great content, as always! Cheers.
Great video. 3 months into CNC and I agree, it should be step one over hand tools these days.
The introduction of human error into fret intonation as well as bridge placement is so.ething that can be completely avoided.
You can also make your own precision tools and jigs (fretboard radius blocks, fretboard Radius, neck rests, saving tons of money over specialty tools)
Also wanted to mention many home planers may say 13.5" but in reality only have a 12" center blade.
The clamping problem can be solved by using painters tape and CA glue. CNC for the win.
This has been answers to questions no one asked.
I have had the same path as you (starting with traditional power tools), but I am struggling to find the time to learn the programs and workflow needed for CNCing. I have a Shapeoko and it's been great for making templates and inlays with the provided software, but I haven't dove into cutting fretboards, necks or bodies yet. With my limited time to work on guitars (since it is a hobby that I can only work on after my day job and on weekends), I'd rather be working on them in my workshop rather than sitting in front of a computer, as I work in software dev and I sit in front of a computer for 9+ hours every day. Eventually I want to move to primarily CNC, but the time investment is just too much for my current limited schedule. It's been a struggle....
I think the first file I want to make is a fretboard. The precision to cut the frets and inlays seems like a big time saver vs. doing it by hand.
Thoughtful explanations. Plus you can get prepared blanks from most of the luthier supply places so you don't actually need the tools to "mill" lumber.

Let’s roll
About drilling holes on a cnc machine!!! You can use the usual processing inside the contour of the vector, and then you can make a large hole with any cutter!!! It all depends on the length of the cutter. That is, how deep a hole can be made.
Don't use up all your exclamation points!!!
@@HighlineGuitars OK, but I didn't understand why not to use exclamation points. Did it offend you somehow?
@@GRSTGuitars no, I wasn’t offended. I was making fun of your silly overuse of the exclamation point. Twice you used three when one was enough.
@@HighlineGuitars There is nothing stupid here))) But thanks for the quick response;-)
I have a cnc and I have made a few guitars but I haven't figured out how to make it resaw like a bandsaw.
I'm all for CNC if you're doing repetitive work. The only thing that has kept me away from it for woodworking is that, it's a hobby that I enjoy. I spend too much time on the computer for work as it is and it would become another job rather than an enjoyable hobby.
Do you use any traditional hand tools, such as planes and chisels, anymore? Or is your shop completely powered?
All of my traditional tools are for decoration.
I don’t think you need to tell us this is a RUclips video in your intros. I think most of us know which platform we’re on 🙂
Thanks for the advice Mr. 6 Subscribers. 😉
Sick of the long hair? 😆
