Guitar - Can't select and machine belly cut and finishing tool and strategy recommendations

The belly cut on the back of the guitar, I cannot select it to machine. Not really sure what I am doing wrong here. Any recommendations?

 

Also, I would really appreciate advice on how to do finishing passes on this instrument front and back. What kind and what tools to use. I am on a Shapeoko 4 XXL and can afford to purchase whatever endmills I may need to.

Hi @evanDXG2P,

 

I've just had a quick look at your model and the problem looks to be the amount of bodies you have selected in your setup 4, if you change your model in setup4 to body9 then your 3D adaptive toolpath with generate properly.

 

hope this sorts the first part of your problem out

 

thanks,

joe
