Carving a guitar neck radius in under 4 minutes with this jig!

I sell customised plans/CNC files for this jig for USD$50- after a few necks, it has paid for itself.
In order to draw up the plans for you, I need your neck dimensions (in millimeters).
-Neck width (from one edge of the fretboard to the other) at the first fret.
-Neck width (from one edge of the fretboard to the other) at the 12th fret.
-Total length of the neck (including headstock, not including fretboard overhang).
-Distance from the end of the neck (where it joins the body) to the middle of the 12th fret.
-Distance from the middle of the 12th fret to the middle of the 1st fret.
Email me hello@temple-guitars.com with this info, then PayPal.me/TempleGuitars USD$50 (excluding fees). I will email your completed custom jig plan as a PDF within 24 hours.
Also jump on Amazon or eBay and grab yourself a plunge router dado bit for your router. They're super cheap, and do a great job for this. Get one with the widest diameter cutter for your shank size.

1. KZfaq messed up the resolution on this one from 00:00:16 to 00:00:20. No biggie, it's just four seconds of the intro.
2. I'm sick, so this video sounds terrible. Sorry about that.
3. At 00:05:32 I said the carriage is angled down towards the headstock. It's angled UP. Woopsie.
4. If you want to jump forward in time to the end of the jig carving demo, here's the timestamp. 00:09:41. Enjoy time travel!
This video series takes us from an empty workshop, to a fully operational small shop luthiery operation over the course of 3 months. I'll show you the jigs and templates I use, how to make your own, with downloadable CNC files, cut lists, and blueprints for each project where appropriate.

I'm learning more as I go and I'm trying to gradually increase the difficulty and challenge level. I would love to build your neck jig, so I'm off to watch Jeff, as he builds it!

Hey! Yep, it absolutely matters. Quarter sawn is the most stable for necks, and even more stable when you laminate it. I used a piece of pine I had laying around the shop for this demo, after I finished carving it I put it through the bandsaw a few times and threw it in the trash.

I wouldn't even use them. I'd start with a standard C shape (round pucks), then shave off a bit, test on scrap, shave off some more, and repeat until they're dialled in to your satisfaction. A little experimentation at the start will result in a solid jig you can rely on for years.

Nice work. Totally understand the joy of hand carving - I did a bunch of it back in the early 1980s in front of the tv - not so good for the domestic arrangements. Dumb question: you have a CNC, why don't you program the entire carve into the CNC? My understanding is you can get an almost finish ready surface with the right path and a bullnose bit.

@TempleGuitars 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Nick, If you check my more recent videos you can see I CNC necks also. I made this one by hand for one of my favourite people, and also to take the opportunity to show others how to do it if they don't have a CNC. As far as being finish ready is concerned, a toolpath that intense would take far too much time and just wouldn't be worth running, when a couple of minutes with 120 grit sandpaper would smooth it all off so much faster. It's certainly possible, but CNC machining is all about the trade off between time spent and time saved. In some cases, machining takes much longer for no added benefit.

@TempleGuitars 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the well wishes! The thickness at the first and 12th frets is different for each person. I make several different circles to achieve varying thicknesses of neck. If you extend the lines between your 1st and 12th frets out either end to the bearings, the circles are that diameter, plus 20mm of extra diameter. If you wish to flatten the back of your neck off, just flatten your circles til you get the radius you like.

I have a question -- I don't quite understand why you allow there to be play in the carriage due to using the rubber bands. Wouldn't you want the carriage to rotate on a fixed point, and not move up and down as an elastic allows?

@TempleGuitars 5 күн бұрын

The rubber bands are really strong, so strong that they hold the carriage up (and therefore the workpiece up) to the cutter without any issue. Think of it like suspension in a car. The work can't get any closer to the cutter than I want it to, but it can move away from it if necessary. I hope that answers your question?

@donotcall1215 3 ай бұрын

could you do this with a neck that has a scarf joint? like for an acoustic guitar?

Absolutely. Because the headstock tilts away from the carriage, and because the router is restricted from entering that area, you can carve the neck radius even with a scarf jointed neck.

I've seen a few folks on KZfaq talking about these jigs, but I have a question that no one I've noticed has talked about... How do you design the cams for these to copy an existing neck? The cam makes the neck shape, but so far, no one has really mentioned how to come up with a cam. Very curious how this works.

@TempleGuitars Жыл бұрын

It's hard to explain in words. When I design these jigs for people I include 4 example cam shapes for different profiles, and seeing them goes a long way to gaining an understanding of it. This jig isn't designed to copy necks, but it can copy necks if you know how to design the cams for it. Basically if you cut a neck in half and look at that cross section shape, you want the cams to reflect it.
