So far we’ve been talking about Class A surfacing in terms of what the product will look like in the end. There will be situations where understanding the math involved will improve your output geometry. In this video we’ll take a deeper look at the mathematical components of Class A surfacing.

Theory : Continuity (Part 3: Curvature)
In this video we’ll take a look at the same surfaces as we did in the last video from a different perspective. When we have linear input surfaces, tangency is usually our best option. In this video we’ll take a look at curvature and how to go about dealing with curvature surfaces.
Theory : Continuity (Part 2: Tangency)
In this video we’ll take a look at continuity and when it matters, and when it doesn’t. We’ll start with a simple scenario and take a look at these different transition types.
Theory : Continuity (Part 1: Introduction)
The whole point of Class A surfacing is to create something that looks amazing. The goal of everything we’re going to talk about is to better understand surface continuity. In this video, we’ll go over a quick summary of what we’ll be talking about in this series and why it matters.
SW Guitar 16: Saddle and Bridge
Really quickly, we’re going to dive in and model our saddle and bridge for our guitar.
SW Guitar 15: Back
We’ve come a long way on our guitar ladies and gentlemen! In this video we’ll be finalizing the back of our guitar and making sure that all of our surfaces are aligned.
SW Guitar 14: Sides
Since we’re on a roll, we’re going to start refining some details on our guitar. Starting to look good!
SW Guitar 13: Soundboard
In this video, we’ll be creating an assembly to start bringing in our guitar components.
SW Guitar 12: Fretboard IV
In this fourth of a four video section of the series, we’ll be creating a sketch-driven pattern to add the final detail to our fretboard! Next up we’ll be working on the sides of our guitar.
SW Guitar 11: Fretboard III
In this video we’ll be adding the fret holes where the actual frets will be placed by using extruded cuts.
SW Guitar 10: Fretboard II
Since we’re on the topic of fillets with our fretboard, we’ll look at some different ways of approaching these pesky guys.
SW Guitar 09: Fretboard I
Welcome back to the Classical Guitar Series kiddos! In this video we’ll start to see the physical form of our guitar come together based on the sketches we’ve been building. This is the first in a series of four fretboard videos in which we’ll be going over some common problems as well as some shortcuts.
