Mike,

You have a PM

I use a 17" MacBook pro for Rhino/tSplines/madCAM under VMs fusion - no problems in two and a half years.

Ed is there a reason you don't macine the truss rod channel; at the same time as the rest of the neck?
When I do a fender style neck I fly cut the surface, machine the truss rod channel, then the...

It's a long time since I used RhinoCam but don't you use machine along a curve. i.e project the fet slots to the fretboard surface and then machine along each curve to the depth of the slot?

Looking good Ed, nice clean work as always.

That's how compund radius fretboards are meant to be - a smooth transition from one radius to the other.


Turmite, I'm interested to know why you'd use two rails, as one is the mirror of the...

Personally I like to keep things simple so here's how I do it.

In the right hand view port draw an arc using Arc,Start,End,Radius where the start point is 0,0 the end point is (nut width),0 and...

Have you checked the latest version on the MadCam download page here;

It's a shame your boss won't let you update as MadCam 4 is excellent - it has...

I use a combination of Rhino 4 and madcam for all my design/machining - I tried RhinoCam but found madcam to be simpler/more intuitive for me.

I do everything in house - bodies, necks, inlay,...

You're quite correct there are two pins per side and they're used...

I was approached by a customer who owns an media company that wanted to film his guitar being made. The end result will a thirty minute(ish) DVD that shows the build of Sabre #2 from beginning to...

I too run Rhino in Paralells and whilst it's been fine to run it natively would be fantastic.

I use this technique all the time to cut purfling channels into the curved surfaces of my guitars - works great.

Spoke to Trev today and whilst he doesn't have any drawings he did say they're indentical to the American standard strats.

I'm speaking to Trev on Monday - if I can get one I'll pass it on.

NOW you tell me :rolleyes:

I purchased madCAM a short while ago after becoming more and more frustrated with RhinoCam basic. I still have the RhinoCam seat - I was proposing to sell it until I...

Cheers, Haydn - I've tried it on three seprate PCs and several different browsers and couldn't replicate the problem. Anybody else having this problem?

Having used both madCAM and Rhinocam to my mind there is no competition. madCAMs interface may not be familiar but it only takes aa hour or so and it'll become second nature.

I also had all kinds...

I've been running a K2 3925G in my Guitar workshop for the past year and have been very pleased wih it.

I started out usind RhinoCAM but have recently switched to madCAM as I find it more...

Sploo,

just to elaborate further on my earlier post; When i said I'd been using them for years with no problems I'm talking about a commercial operation that runs them for up to eight hours a...

I've been using Porter Cables for years in the UK via the transformer you mention - no problems so far after hundreds of hours of use (touch wood)
