Here's the next part where I walk through the CAM for a machine that can cut the whole body in one set of operations and also for a smaller machine where indexing is required (like mine).

Hi Eric
Good man - I seem to be getting a lot of requests for the CAM, from the uninformed that think they can load my GCode and press start on an X-Carve. That will only get them a floor full of broken machine parts if they try milling at 15mm depth on an 8mm cutter
Best to delete the email addresses off of your post there - bots will be picking those up and phishing will commence (Lee might be able to do this if he picks up on it first).

Hi Chris,
I haven't been able to find any files on A360 under either account? Is it shared through the fusion? Also, thanks for the HU regarding the email addresses!
Best,
Eric

Morning all
Here's the latest video showing the machine and CAM in action. It shows how I get a body that is too wide for my cutting area out of the machine:
The links to the CAD models in Fusion 360 are in the video description for anyone that wants them, but no toolpaths. If anyone wants access directly to the project in Fusion 360 drop me a PM with your Fusion360 email address and I'll add you to it.My CNC Projects: https://www.youtube.com/imadethisoncnc

Hi all,
Next part of the Telecaster build - no CNC this time round, but installing the body binding with some "old skool" routing:

Nice work, I notice that you didn't heat the binding prior to bent it at the area of lower horn, this mean the binding is soft enough for this job, right? What kind of plastic is made of? ABS? also I have seen people bond the binding with the body with acetone, they say it is a more clean work. I haven't try that... only just CA glue.

Yes it was fine for the lower horns, it was only on the right angle bend under the neck pocket that really needed heating.
I think its ABS, but it was off of ebay so you can never be 100% sure...
I have some decent glues and of course acetone, but I find the bonds can be a little weak and CA is just a lot quicker in general but does have that "one shot" risk.My CNC Projects: https://www.youtube.com/imadethisoncnc
