Student's double top guitar CNC application


Mick S

Recommended Posts

We have been fortunate to have a very skilled guitar maker here in Santa Fe, Michael Thames, join our CNC class about halfway through the semester. He recently took delivery on a Shapeoko router and I've been working with him on VCarve to bring his designs into reality.

This week's lesson was on the balsa portion of a double top guitar.

David - you should think about contacting this guy. He's the real deal in classical guitars. He's on somewhere around #975.

Thanks, Mick.  I've actually been chatting with Michael since early April when I met him on SMC in the CNC area there.  Really nice guy and very talented.  I knew he would be going to your class and I'm glad you were able to help him.  Good video on the Balsa core.
