Here's the body

ah yes i see what you mean, i have designed the wooden inserts that make the profile curve, here they are! :)

I see, well, there's no physical model yet, until we are sure it is good. What do you think needs to be worked on? Thanks for the feedback!

I've done it all, finally, it works in other programs and everything! Don't know why i haven't done this sooner, but here's a link to download it! ^^

Ah it's very good if i can offload some of the work to fiverr! haha :D
Do you think i could get a toolpath drawing there? I've talked to some people to consider my situation. The machine operator...

Wow yeah, i haven't really thought about it in terms of specific techniques like that, i will look into it, i was designing it by feel mostly, removing excess where i think it is not necessary and so...

OK so i'm very intrigued, it seems that if i put in 6061 alloy as the material, and try to evaluate it, i come up with this! Around 50% heavier than what i've read strat necks are, but considering...

Thank you so much! It will probably be a while until i learn solidworks a bit but for now it's at least importing a lot better, i will check back when i'm done!

In essence, i drew it in the basic dwg format in AutoCAD 2016, not sure what to do with it from there on heh :)

So, i'm not sure about that, as this model was created in autocad and it is not "parametric" which is what i think it needs to be in order to be ready for manufacturing, i think i will need to...

Hay guys! so i'm back finally, made a lot of progress in learning how to design in AutoCAD, talking to some machining engineers about how the parts can be made and learning about guitar design in...

Well yes, i've planned to fit the whole thing inside the piece of aluminum, i understand this, do you think it would be too expensive? Budget is not that great of a concern right now though, it's...

Thank you very much for your replies!

Yes i was afraid the T will be too thick, although calculating for weight it seems like a tough calculation since i've put a lot, of weird geometrical shapes...

So, I'm starting from scratch, no experience and no pre built parts, except the hardware (tuners, bridge, etc.) that i'm planning to buy. I want to make an aluminum neck, something between egc style...

Hey guys! I'm coming over from this post over on metal necks and yes, i'm very new to this, but i also see huge potential, i want to learn as much as possible about making these guitars! I'm not shy...
