Guitar geometry & lofting

The shape and arch of the guitar need to be defined, so that we can carve it. We have used hand tools, a pin router, and a CNC router, both individually and in combination. Here we link to flow charts, descriptions and notes about what we did.

Link to a document describing contours, lofting, lengths, areas and volumes. The aperture areas and perimiter lengths, and cavity volume, are listed for our instruments.
