How to program CAM for ANGLED guitar necks in Fusion 360 | Complete Tutorial

Подробнее о видео

In this video we dive deep into CAM for angled guitar necks in Autodesk Fusion 360. We program the CAM for the neck on my guitar, from start to finish, including Setups, Stocks, Fixtures, 2D & 3D Toolpaths, and full simulations with detailed tips and tricks.

Angled necks are some of the most difficult parts to machine on a guitar. I believe this method I have developed should allow anyone with a CNC, even those with limited Z clearance, to produce good parts.
