Hey Everyone! We are finally ready to start building my new guitar that you have watched me model in Fusion 360 for nearly the past year! However my CNC was not ready for a big project like this, so it needed a good tuneup. In this video we give my Xcarve some much needed attention and go in depth on how to calibrate your steps/mm and tram your spindle.
