In this video, I interview Violinmaker John Kirk, who crafts violins using a CNC machine. John shares his insights on how much of the violin-making process can be automated and where the human touch is still essential. We explore the balance between CNC precision and traditional craftsmanship.
Can a CNC machine truly replace the artistry of a skilled luthier? Watch as we delve into this fascinating discussion and see the results of combining modern technology with time-honored techniques.
