Neck Angle Equation

[theodoropoulos]

ive sketched it out quickly in CAD, but Im not 100% sure Ive got your required measurements in the right place. Plus, Ive assumed fret wire height to be 1.4mm and used a metric scale length of 623.875mm. so this is based on a 16mm high bridge (in its lowest adjusted setting, with strings touching the top of the frets)

edit: Im coming up with an angle of approx 1.865 degs.\

my friend my calculations show about 3.9 degrees............

big difference....so which is correct?????????????????

Draw it full scale and find out!

Sorry, it had to be done.

This is all supposed do be fun, so don't take it too seriously.

Good luck however you do it.

I will post my sketch tomorrow when Im at work. You can check my measurements against your design to see if I have used the correct ones. I dont know why, but 4 degrees seems steep to me.

wow, if you are that worried about holding a pencil, I dread to think how much you worry about holding a router!

lol... er... routers use bearing bits and templates.

It's not that my hand shakes; pencil lead is just not very precise because it's constantly changing as you use it.
