Well, I finally did it! AND finally got my head wrapped around using PartWorks for the 2D pocketing procedures. HUGE thanks to Dana Swift for helping me out on that one.
These bodies are made of Alder. They are in the shape of a race car which was supplied by my customer. The bodies were built around an Epiphone (Gibson) Les Paul Jr. components like the neck and bridge.
The bodies will be sent to the customer where he'll have it custom painted. They're going to painted up like the Joe Gibbs Racing #18 M&M's car. One body will be kept by the customer, one will go to Kyle, as he commissioned the work to be done, and one will go to the shop to be displayed. I'm not sure if Kyle will keep it or auction it off.
I got a sample of what the paint job will look like, but I didn't think it looked all that great. Hoping the real thing looks much better. *crosses fingers*
Anyways, this is my first project done on the ShopBot Buddy. Now it's time to get my procedure down for making necks.
