Aluminium Extrusion CNC Router Build

[joshendy]

looks a tidy machine josh,its the sort of design i wish id gone for but using profile rail,would love to see some guitars being cut when you get round to it.
im hopeing to do a few vids myself in the next few weeks.

Thanks! Yea I'll definitely be using round profile rail for my next build. I'm still in the design phase of getting the guitar together but I'm hoping I can film a good deal of the cutting and post a nice vid up and a quick overview of the process and then finally me playing it!

Do I spy a DIY cyclone bucket vacuum thingy there?

Awesome work all round, looks really good!

Thanks! Haha yep thats a DIY cyclone bucket, threw it together quite quickly. It catches all the big swarf but a lot of the fine particle stuff still makes it to the vac and clogs the filter. The bucket is just too small and the intake port is too close to the port going out to the vac. I'll be building a larger one eventually which I'm sure will do better, but my current one does the trick for now.

Cheers,
Josh
