CNC milling a guitar body, this shows from starting with a two-piece billet of mahogany, to basically where the hand work starts. Having a guitarbuilding robot is cool, but being able to shoot, edit, render, and post a movie about it with a phone is kind of mindblowing. We live in the future.

A few seconds of Robot running, cutting another maple guitar neck. Interesting, I suppose, for people who like CNC machines. I certainly do. I know there’s this mental image people have, of some old world craftsman at his bench, planing long strips of maple away as the golden light streams in through the window and the dust. I like that image, it’s nice.  But I like building this way....
