I just heard the call for a sticky thread for drawings relative to steel guitars.
So here it is.
Thanks for the idea!… JD

| I'm not too clear on how to upload anything but bitmap images. I tried to upload a DXF but the file type is not supported. |

I think the correct “protocol” is to upload documents onto a sharable folder like DropBOX etc. and post the public link only on the Forum.
Thanks!… JD

| Before I retired part of my business was consulting and training employees to use mainly vector graphics arts programs and I specialized in creating files for 2D CNC applications - Many years ago I used to print fretboards on real wood veneers but no longer offer that service but still have more than a few fretboard files on hand - If you do need some help for whatever just PM me and I'll see if I can help - Just trying to contribute. |

I was a CNC programmer for years. I would use a digitizer at times, trace out what I wanted, go around with the digitizer and pick points then connect the dots and program it. If it wasn't quite right I could massage the code on screen or go back to the drawing board. I forget which software program it was, maybe datacut, that is going way back. I am used to using expensive software packages or just writing the G code for simpler parts. I have made bell cranks, pick up covers, foot pedals etc. but now I am retired. I had gents send me parts and I would copy them and draw them up in MasterCam and make them. DXF files wern't very large, I would download them quite often. I know those HAAS machines inside out.
