...actually could you make that 3 Les Pauls?
2So you'd have to basically take your cherished guitar apart until it was just a block of wood again.
I can't really see how that is worth it.

3That's just a cnc machine.

5sounds like a "tracer mill". I forget if jimmyjames6 has two or just one of these. his work with aluminum too; not sure why this one doesn't.
tommydski, stripping a guitar down to just the wood isn't really that big of a deal, unless it's a hollowbody cause it's a bear to get those things put back together. but for a solidbody, it's a pretty minor operation, especially if you consider you get a second guitar out of it.
here's the problem... a guitar and neck that's all just one single piece of wood? I wouldn't expect it to be so great. 3-piece neck, definitely. but 1-piece? that would only work well with certain types of wood, I'd think.

6Thats a pantograph, they are used in sign making etc. Very useful for 3D tracing like that. A tracer mill is the same, but its hyrdaulic and messy messy messy.
You can also can enlarge the copy on some models. Very cool machines. If your only making a handful of copies these are way faster than CNCs.

Well if he's got two, he could use one to trace the other and make three. Then make another, set two and two up, make two more....
