Unfortunately that time has come.

After a couple of years trying to make a living as a luthier, things just didn't work out.

My goal was to offer luthier services, a bit like the well respected (and great craftsman) Andy Birko.

I wanted to supply local luthiers with templates, fretboards, guitar bodies, necks , etc etc.

The truth is, 90% of luthiers here in Montreal are artisans - and whenever the term "machine made" or "cnc" comes into the conversation, the conversation usually ends abruptily with a "get the #$%? out of my shop".

So, I decided to sell my Xzero CNC Raptor that I cherish and took good care of.

Here are a couple of pics.

If anyone is interested, shoot me a message.

It comes with loads of extras, and it will be a great addition to someone that can put it to good use. I don't have a place to put it, so...it has to go. Much to my sadness.

Thanks for looking.
Dan

PS: if anyone needs references, i'm very good friends with Ken Mckay.
