Stratocaster Neck Model

[jimmiethekid]

Hey everyone, good to be here! I have been checking the forum out for awhile now.

I am modelling a strat neck and am having some troubles with the contours going from the nut to the head stock. I have seen a few other files of neck models but most don't really have it looking right at this contour section.

If anyone is interested in helping me out I would be more than happy to email you my files to see where I am at. I have a strat body and tele body modelled too. I'm up for trading if anyone wants to trade.

Thanks, back to reading to figure out how to model this!

This is what I have so far. It's looking better. I modelled it after my 79 strat.

Anyone think they can help me out with this neck 'hump'. easy to see in the photo. Between the nut and head stock .. I cant seem to get that right and really hope I dont have to start from scratch .. I think I'm going at this the hard way!

Thanks in advance if anyone can give me some tips or tricks!?

I am doing this in SolidWorks 2010. I can email or send the SLDPRT. PM me .. cheers!

sorry for all the posts .. trying to get used to this forum setup.

I think I got it. i have a question tho, will the back part cut smooth even tho I see edge type lines? There are no lines its all a surface loft.

I think I'm done .. hopefully it cuts as good! cheers

How did your cut turn out? I am interested in making an electric guitar sometime in the future (perhaps far future) but more along the lines of a Gibson (my last name, lol)
