  4. It is African Mahogany. I do not have a picture account set up on the web, so I'm not sure if I can post pics. It is easier just to send it in an email. Thanks, Chris

  6. I bought this Grizzley G8030 pin router about 5 years ago when my guitar business was doing well. Since then my health has wrecked my body and now I have to get both of my shoulders replaced. This means that I cannot use a pin router again. This router is 220 volt aand you will need an air compressor to operate the up/down. The table will need to be bolted back on, (trunions broke) you can use tubular steel to do this or just buy new trunions. You can see all the specs on Grizzleys site. I do not have any pictures but the machine is in good shape. I have extra pins and bits with the machine also. This is a great machine for building guitars and I would not get rid of it but my shoulders force me to. Machine is located in Mercersburg, PA. Near Hagerstown, Md. You must pick up. No exceptions, I cannot and will not arrange for any shipping. The machine weighs about 600 lbs. and stands about 6 ft tall. Asking $400 OBO. I also have mahogany body blanks (about 30) that I would sell for $35 pc. Sorry, I cannot ship these, you would have to pick up. They are joined and thickness sanded to 1 3/4". If you are interested you can email or call me. cmbeers@comcast.net 717-328-3233 Ask for Chris

  10. I found this video about the making of Martin Guitars. It is worth checking out. http://blog.nam.org/archives/2005/09/the_s...martin_guit.php
  11. Thanks chunkielad, I would be very interested. I will pm you. No problem guitarguy, just goes to show that we are both human and both make mistakes. Thank you. Thanks, Chris
  12. You are correct. I should have metioned that I needed 2D not 3D. We are well aware that it is harder and more time consuming than it looks and I should have said so. Thanks to all for pointing it out. Chris
  13. I can have the files made up for $35 hr. by a known builder and friend of mine. I thought that someone may be interested. I am not looking for 3D stuff. I am just looking for 2D stuff. I was just hoping that there was someone out there that had some 2D files. I just thought I would ask and maybe save a little money while helping someone with there guitar project. GuitarGuy, I not quite sure how you are trying to come across. Yes, we can afford to pay for the files but we were hoping to save some money while helping others maybe get started in building guitars. Comments like that are why lots of people don't like to post here. If anyone is interested, I would be willing to pay for the files or neg. on trades. Thank you, Chris
  14. Hello, We are switching from a pin router shop to full CNC, so we are selling our pin router. It is a Grizzly 8030 3HP 220 single phase pin router. This router is in very good shape and is excellent for guitar work. There was a new drive belt ($60) put on it with less than 10 working hours on it. The table has been pinned in the horizontal position. If you want it to tilt, you would need new trunons. Air regulator has a small leak, but it does not affect anything. This is very well maintained machine. It comes with many pins ranging from 1/4" to 1/2". The table is air operated by foot control. There are six adjustable spindle depth settings. These adjustments are great, you can set a height for neck route, pickup depth, cantrol cavity depth, etc. and with a turn of the knob you can switch them. The asking price is $900. You are welcome to come and see it run at our shop in PA. I perfer that it be picked up, but I will put it on a pallet and take to ABF or Roadway for a small fee. Machine weighs about 660 lbs. I will take some pictures of it tonight. If you are interested email me and I will send you pics. Thanks, Chris chris@brtguitars.com
