Hey guys,
Just looking for some input/criticism on this project before I send these drawings out for cutting. I have a company that is going to cut these pieces out for me on a CNC Router out of Baltic Birch and ship them out to me, so I want to make sure I am not missing anything before I pull the trigger.
First off, one of my main concerns are the holes I’ve incorporated for glue up. I am intending on using 3/8” threaded rod during the glue up process and am going to drop each piece through the rod and use nuts and washers to crank the pieces together. I have never done a project like this before and am not 100% sure if there any problems that may arise from this that I have not thought of yet. So far my only concern is whether or not I should leave the threaded rod in place permanently or remove it. I am a little afraid of it causing problems acoustically down the road.
Secondly I am not sure if there are any limitations to the CNC that these drawings may interfere with. For instance, I was told by the shop that they will likely use a 3/8” bit for the CNC to do the cutting, so I therefore changed the threaded rod holes to 3/8” to hopefully save a bit of time and money and make things as seamless as possible.
Take a look and let me know what you guys think of the project overall. I am very excited to get started on it. It has come a very long way over the past year or so.
