    Hello,

    I work for a company that builds cabinets for executive jet interiors. We use a CNC to cut most of our cabinet parts. I would like to know if it would be possible to get guitar plans in AutoCad instead of PDF format so I can have some templates CNC’ed instead of cutting them by hand.

    Thanks,

    Graeme.

    Hi Graeme,

    I have worked with CAD systems for over 20 years now and as the owner of an architectural company, I have been asked by numerous clients if they could have either a dxf or a dwg version of their building drawings. Unfortunately, when I give out the files in these formats, I am giving away all of the raw drawing files, which are the essence of the design and drawings themselves. This would allow individuals to upload these files into any CAD program and save it as their own file. This not only is a copyright infringement, but it gives away a lot of hard work. I understand too, that in most instances this would not be a problem and the way around this with my architectural clients was to have them sign a elaborate form not to use the file for any other purpose than internal use.

    Therefore, I have decided to make these guitar plans and jig plans available only in pdf format. I’m sorry I can’t give you the raw data files and I hope you understand.

    Thanks for the inquiry though.
    David

    Hi,

    I tried to download several of your free plans, but none of the links work. It opens a new window with the same page.

    Thanks for your help.

    Ron,

    I have tried all the links and they do work for me. I tried in both Safari and Firefox. I do not have I.E.. Perhaps there is a setting in your browser that prevents this? Not sure. What browser are you using and what is your computer platform?

    If anyone else has this problem i would appreciate knowing it. Also if you do and you want a plan and are having trouble downloading it just tell me what you desire and i’ll email them to you directly.

    Sincerely
    David

    Hello,

    I recently bought and downloaded the OOO-28VS plans. They look very good and after printing parts in full scale, they measure exactly to the dimensions provided.

    First question, when I scale the peghead thickness, it measures only 7/16″ which seem small for any slot head tuners that I can find for a 12 fret steel string.

    Second question, plans indicate 1.75″ fretboard width at the nut, but scales to 1.875″ Not a problem because I like a little wider fretboard. I the 1.875″ correct??

    Thanks

    Can you provide me some insight.

    Hi Dave

    The spec for the 000-28VS is 1-13/16″ which would be about 46mm. Yes I like a wider neck as well. I’m glad you discover that peghead thickness. The thickness of the peghead should be approx 19mm or 3/4″ so you could install vintage tuners on the guitar. They tend to be between 17 and 18mm. I will get a revised drawing together for you of the peghead and email it over to you.

    Thanks.
    David
