Playable 3d mostly printed 6 string electric guitar by Bobbond000

Last crawled date: 4 years, 5 months ago

This is the 6 string version of a playable 3d printable electric guitar kit. This was optimized mostly for printing on a 400x400 . This kit is designed to have 8mm strengthening rods through the neck and the headstock. Attaching the neck to the body requires a block of wood to fill in the void at the bottom of the neck. This will attach the neck to the body securely.
Print the following with 95% infill (print fretboard and inlays with 60% infill overlap to ensure no gaps when sanding)
-Fretboard
-BodyCenter
-All Neck Parts
-Headstock
-Inlays
Body sides can be printed at 25% or more infill.
This includes a fret press tool for a drill press, and a fret board sanding block for the appropriate radius.
Kit is designed to use the following hardware:

3 knob configuration was done for personal preference. Rotary selection knob for the pickups (3 position) and 2 volume knobs. This is the rotary selection switchhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07V3J2H2H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Finished product is close to the same weight as a wooden configuration. I spent quite a lot of time on this model to make it work. I am still constantly tweaking and still in the middle of printing the body for mine. Donations for these efforts are appreciated.
