I'm with Uncle J.. Got a look about it. Clever use of the 3D printer.  I hope to be building a shorter-scale git in the near future.

Thanks. 3D printing does contrast with the low tech nature of cigar Box Guitars, but I like to use it to make guitar parts that require precision that  I struggle to deliver or to just try something different. It will be a gift to my brother-in-law who gave me the box after smoking all the cigars in it. I cut down the box because it was way too deep, I had to find a way to use it because I really liked the labeling on the top.

Nice. Handsome, arty and kitshy all at once. The sound hole star was small stroke of genius.
