I haven't. That's impressive.

**Elias Graves** · 04-18-2012, 03:51 AM

I wonder if he could do one for me in a vine motif?
And fewer spiders.
Preferably none.

He likely could.

**Mark Wein** · 04-18-2012, 04:07 AM

wow!

**Prages** · 04-18-2012, 01:02 PM

I assume he uses something like this.

Saw one on the news a few weeks ago. Prices start at around $2k for a smaller printer, IIRC.

An engineering friend of mine has been reading up on 3D printers so he could program a guitar template. He's going to be pissed.

love the Spidey one

**Elias Graves** · 04-18-2012, 05:08 PM

So, what tonewoods is he using?

It's cool. He might still be able to make the first one that isn't ugly as shit.

He wants a 7-string Carvin with a quilted maple top, red stain, and gold hardware.

We have one of those at work. It's cool watching it do its thing. We use it for prototyping parts.

Yeah, a 3D printer might have been used to make the body. But, I wonder how durable ti would be. IIRC, the resins used for 3D printing aren't super strong. Still, it looks kind of intersting.
