New project, you guys are gonna hate it

Post by exafro »

Headless 8 string, 30" scale whale fart generator. Got some acrylic templates made by sendcutsend. Should be interesting when complete.

God I feel old, it took me way to long to figure out where imgur hid the proper hyperlink on their mobile site. Should be fixed now

Pro tip with the SCS stuff. They can laser etch the plastic, I always have them etch the centerline on the template. It's super helpful.

Shape looks cool. Excited to see this unfold.

I had a centerline in the file, but I had them Cnc it instead of lasercut it. I wasn't sure how much the kerf would mess with the dimensions of the neck, which after rechecking the site wouldn't have been an issue lol. My dumbassery strikes again. I'll get the next set perfect.

In those cases I'd have them mill a slot where one edge is the centerline. That's how I make mdf templates on my CNC

Regardless, I'm stoked to see the build.
