Hi Eddy

I bet one of them will want a flat one anyway

I have been CNC cutting the slots, allows cutting on the radius and also somebody wanted blind slots, a bit cross your fingers with .5 mm cutters in hard wood

Ive been using 0.5 mm slot drills, I generate the code using Fretboard.exe which is in imperial, so generate the code and scale it in Discriminator to suit the Estlcam controller.

Looks okay, did you check both ends with radius gauges ?
I'm not a fan of marker dots these days, I just use side dots and one at the 12th fret as a logo.
What's the difference between a scalloped board and just using tall frets ? of course with the cnc it's no more difficult to make.
Also don't be worried about asking me to process more dxf files, if it's to do with guitars I'm on board.Last edited by EddyCurrent; 10-06-2019 at 10:00 PM.

Never had any experience with guitar making until now, have got dragged into it and actually finding it very interesting
The guitar lads soon get out their guages etc whenever I cut something for them. as a non player I also wondered about tall frets.
Thanks for the offer of help with files, I may well be asked for something different.
