Thank you sir, but I am pretty sure he meant to build your guitars not to make the drawing. You started out the thread by saying you were a poor man, so some of us may be wondering how you have the ability to do the guitar work....what tools and machines?

I almost use handtools for making.
Coreldraw is just use for design.
Just a trimmer (small router), dremel , RO sander , my homemade drum sander and jigsaw are my power tools.
I don't have a big bandsaw.
And many of my hand made jigs.

For the template and mold. I ask the laser cut shop and cnc shop.

Handtools is most of job. The power tool for routing and cutting.
All done by hand not from a machine.

If you think I use machine for making. NO is my absolutely answer.
I have no money to buy that thing.

Also, I don't have an expensive handtools I don't use lie Nelson I don't Have two cherry brand. You'll never see a beatiful toolse in my ugly shop.

You may think this case can't figure a good guitar for you. But for me this can make a thing called "my homemade guitar".
And I'm glad to say that it almost made from my home made wooden plane.
And tools I can buy from Thailand.

these are example of my tools

You are further proof that it's not the tool that makes the guitar.
New builders often get so hung up on which tools they need, when the new luthiers are just building guitars.

Looks great. I didn't read the entire thread so if you already said I'm sorry. Where are you located in Thailand? I have a condo in Jomtien area and spend time there and would love to play one of your guitars some day.

Thanks.
