I am interested in the engineering process you use in your work. Is this the realm of a structural engineer, or is there engineers who are specifically trained for the field of product development.
I work with structural engineers in building design, and have asked several of them a question to do with the stresses on acoustic guitar cross bracing, and I get the "Deer in the Headlights" response.
Since your analysis was quite thorough, it interests me.
And. I really like your piece. I think it is also really good for people to understand the complexity of fine design when applied to products and industry.
Hi Dale, I am an Industrial Designer and have only an intuitive skill in engineering, and a friend who is a Mechanical Engineer who did a structural checks via a computer program.
The structure of musical insruments though has almost always baffled me. The material strength of a sound board of a harp is about 1000 times what you would intuitivly expect a 3mm piece of wood could handle before failure AMAZING!! and considering inherent resonent frequencies no less! And done by experience and intuitioin before the days of computers. I think it was called art then
If you have any specific question feel free to get back to me
And thank you
Cheers
Stephen

The design is special.
