I want to thank all the creators, builders, woodworkers, crafty people who have posted similar projects to YouTube. I watched, learned and have borrowed heavily from all of you. Thank you all!

Here are a couple links to my "design on the fly" idea/plans.
These plans are only a starting point, not something to build a turn-key carving machine from. You will need to verify, correct, and build this project to suit your needs. Make it better, make it your own.
Good luck to you and your projects!

I hope you've enjoyed this project, and while it takes some time and effort to build this project, I foresee a great amount of time saved down the line.
This is not a project for a single guitar build, but rather for someone who wants, or plans to build a number of instruments, quickly or over time.

Good luck to you!
