1 Jun 2024 - 3D-printing, CAD, luthier, woodwork
This talk will take a look at Älgen, a custom-built guitar that is a fusion of traditional hand-crafted woodwork and advanced 3D-printing and generative-design techniques. The guitar is built using no less than 4 different types of 3D-printing, including 3D-printed aluminium. At the same time it sticks with traditional hand built woodwork for the playing surface, matching material with function.
