Awesome Customizable Top Nut for guitar, bass or any string instrument

thingiverse

Well this escalated quickly with regards to number of hours spent... But now I'm finally happy with the result. - This top nut uses true fretboard radius, default is set to 12" but this can be changed as everything else. - Enter dimensions of nut, number of strings, distance between outermost strings and the desired string height and let the magic begin. - Each string slot uses the string diameter and each string can be individually adjusted. - All slots can now also be angled in any number of degrees. It is hard to see the result inside Customizer since it apparently cannot handle the final translate. Also Customizer doesn't create the nut correctly so I cannot recommend it for this project. So download and open in OpenScad to generate instead. **2020-03-27** Added option to make v-shaped string slots (default and recommended) or straight slots **2020-01-24** Added option to group strings in pairs, 12-strings are now handled too. Comment if its not working as it should. **2018-08-24** Now works in Customizer after removing letter ö from my last name inside a comment... **2018-08-07**: Added parameter stringAngle to angle string slots
