3.00 Credits
This course introduces Rhino design software students will use to create 2D and 3D design elements for guitars. Students will complete assignments from the training manual as well as guitar specific design work. In this course, students will establish the headstock, fingerboard and body aesthetics for an instrument to be built in the spring semester. Instrument design elements also included will be inlays, truss rods, control cavities, bridges and anything specific to what they hope to make. 3D modeling will be practiced and rendering of 3D models will be introduced. (Prerequisites: Pre-Math Level 3 Placement Level or GTRB 1441, GTRB 1445, GTRB 1450) (3 credits: 3 lecture/0 lab)

-
2.00 Credits
This course will focus on 3-axis milling techniques using a CNC router and RhinoCAM software. Students will operate the CNC machine to created parts assigned in GTRB 2417 then design, program and machine templates and molds for instruments to be built in GTRB 2432. Students will also create a 2D blueprint of the instrument they plan to build in GTRB 2432. (Prerequisites: GTRB 1441, 1445, 1450, 2415, 2417) (2 credits: 0 lecture/2 lab)
