I joined team JazzCNC on Wednesday and had a great day taking delivery of machine from Dean and his son. They took me through the machine really comprehensively and Ive since had a bit of time getting to grips with it. I wanted a CNC primarily for guitar building so today I decided to jump in and cut a test body. I scaled my model down to 30% in Fusion and set about greating the g code for it. Using a combination of straight cutter and ball nose for the carved top gave me a bit of experience in tool changes within the same job , basic stuff no doubt for you seasoned machinists, but a confidence booster for me, knowing I could carry out the work flow correctly. The machine is a beast !! I don't have much for a reference save for my mates massive SCM machine but my little Jazz 9060 punches above its weight for sure.....

Thanks again to Dean and Jared
