OK..so the tool paths are done, and it is looking good!

Now to start cutting some wood, and make chips fly at 120 IPM!!

LOL....

OK...SO here it is! Just came back from my shop where my CNC machine was running...

I am EXTREMELY happy with the results....the integrated braces look absolutely awesome!

As you can see, a few tooling marks after the finish pass, but a little sanding and that is that....will need to flip the body over and do the front next. This part took about 1 hour to cut, and I was running at 140 IPM..

I can also tell you, that the top in it's current form is absolutely alive! The tap tone rings like a bell....very noticeable pitch drop as well from the raw top before the cut.....again, now for the front, and some more tap tone tests again...

The braces are also about 1/8 larger than what they should be, for final tuning after the whole top is cut....we shall see...

More to come again....
