[quote="Filippo Morelli"
I heard the Corvus described as what a Gumby and a wooden seagull might produce as offspring ...

Here, maybe this will help you get started. Scale length is the only thing I can say for sure is correct, but everything else is real close. I have cad files if needed and I might be able to provide a pdf. I will have to check my export extensions to see.

BTW, did you get that stick of wood in the dry? That should be mission # one!

I discovered this afternoon that Rhino will not save as a pdf.....sorry. If anyone who uses Rhino knows how to make a pdf happed, let me know. I will be gone for about the next 48 hrs. My wife is in the hospital and will be having surgery to burn the last of the cancer from her liver! Looooong 2 1/2 years.

You need to get that wood in the dry regardless how small it is as you can use it to trim the one you have already started. A matching headstock would look nice. Don't let good quality lumber go to waste.

Chris - might be an extension that you have that allows that, maybe you have Adobe installed which would add the resource files for this - PDF995 works great as mentioned -

it's horrible, i can only find what kind of neck and fingerboard wood they used. I assume it to be the usual mahogany though.

Chris can you give the steps here as to how to do it? I have version 4 release 6 and am not using V5 yet? Is there a chance it is in V5?
