Guitar neck with support pins

thingiverse

This is a remixed neck for Solstie's printable playable acoustic guitar. I have added holes for 5mm pins to support the neck joints. You can either use metal furniture pins from the hardware store or you can print out the pin that I included in the files. The metal pins are probably stronger and more secure. I am working on a design of this neck and body with a steel truss rod and slots for fret wire instead of plastic frets so that it could hold the tension required for steel strings. If/when I get that working, I will upload the files. Until then, this is a great project to make an extremely portable and playable guitar. Thanks to Solstie and PxT for the original design and for reuploading Solstie's original files. Print Settings Printer Brand: Robo 3D Printer: R1 ABS + PLA Model Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Doesn't Matter Resolution: .2mm layer height Infill: 50% Notes: The high infill percent makes for a stronger neck. When gluing the neck together, make certain it is all lined up perfectly or you will get fret buzz. Other than that follow the original instructions.
