    thats the idea to get the parts out quickly.

    Right now it takes under 3 days to mill this guitar with 2 CW's. on a Hass it would be under a day I guess.




    Thanks

    My 21 year old nephew has a band. I think I'll make him a new cutom one. He picks a strat now. I put mine down years ago but I still have my Martin 12 string and my Guild 6 string. Sold my piano though...

Then I called Chris and asked if it would work using the 1.126 card and 1.130 Designer... He said "Yes" and give it a try.... I did, a square Cut path and like others have posted but it worked multi pass cutting.... I tucked that card away for the moment.... Interesting.....

    thanks I have a lefty PRS i am building soon.. and would love to build a cello 2.

    cut depth is .125
    Thats odd.. 1.126 will cut .125 " in one pass anyway.

    One way , is to keep 1.130 software installed and use the 1.126 firmware on the memory card only when needed.
