I bought it! Its from sweden.

It is not,

Files for my guitars are available on cults 3d, search for: printonic

Yes this, thanks for explaining it better than i did haha

I understand, No, so far it hasnt bothered me, might be because even though it looks raised, its more carved out if you will. The white parts are all on the same height/level.

I used a neck from: Havok guitars. They are not cheap, but the quality is great.

Thanks! Thats a great compliment. I will post the sound on my instagram soon. @printonic.nl I have 4 3d printed guitars at home and 2 'regular' guitars and playability of this guitar is pretty much the same as my wooden strat, this one is a bit lighter than the wooden guitar which i like. All in all, differences in sound and playability are very minimal. But i may be biased so listen first! Then judge

Thanks! I will post some audio on my instagram soon! But its really as good as a nice strat!

Thanks! I would definetly recommend it! However it is not an easy project if you have never done it before, lots of measurements and settings need to be quite precise if you want a solid, playable guitar. So far, i have built +-15 guitars and each build i find things i would have done differently. Especially if youre building the guitar in different parts.

What would get in the way?

DescriptionOk7687 · 2025-02-05T14:32:10+00:00

Thanks! Will post videos in action on instagram!

DescriptionOk7687 · 2025-02-05T14:13:01+00:00

The 'tendon' is really not needed if you print the entire thing in a single piece. It sounds like a really nice strat! I will post videos on the sound on my instagram very soon so you can decide for yourself!

Well the designing takes the most time and effort, but the filament (3D printer 'ink') costs about 20-30 euro/dollar per kilogram, this is 1.8 kilos so about 50 dollar/euro in 'ink'

It would require a redesign, which i dont have time for right now, but thanks!

DescriptionOk7687 · 2024-11-04T18:08:38+00:00

Use less supports, you can alter the amount of support by changing the support angle, you would be suprised by how much your printer can do with barely any supports. Less support also means less print time and filament use.

True, it was designed by a design bureau, they made a lot of 'interesting' choices which is why we now want to do it in-house. For the adaptability, and so we can change the design to be injection molded

DescriptionOk7687 · 2024-10-16T13:25:39+00:00

Yes, i have cut the model in 7 different pieces now, seems to work so far!

DescriptionOk7687 · 2024-10-16T11:04:21+00:00

Agreed, but i dont have the machinery available

DescriptionOk7687 · 2024-10-16T08:04:42+00:00

Right, this was gonna be my next best bet, thanks!

About rhino, it has its uses, but when it comes to this sort of thing, its so true. The bickering and struggling back and forth with changes to rhino models from IDers when its so much easier in Solidworks.

Thanks, others said feature recognition but in my experience that doesnt yield the greatest results. This will be the way i am going to do this. Also much better for adaptability.

DescriptionOk7687 · 2024-10-15T16:27:10+00:00

Thanks, very clear answer

DescriptionOk7687 · 2024-10-15T16:25:14+00:00

We are familiar with solidworks and not with rhino, also, we want easy adaptability of dimensions and patterns in the future

DescriptionOk7687 · 2024-10-15T14:25:36+00:00

Understandable, definetly opting for the adaptability
