A left handed Strandberg Boden style from an original routing outline from many years ago. This should be pretty accurate sizing and has my best alignment of the jack and electronics so the ergonomic look and feel are maintained. I never built this out of wood so this is my first build in this style. Also my first full 3d guitar design. I used openSCAD for all of it so a lot of enhancements still if using a more modern design tool. i.e. beveled edges and carved cutaways. I just had to get printing!
The full project build has all parts cut up to fit on the core one. I used Amolen 2 color red black silk PLA. Ended up with it all flat on plate as it gave a cool carbon fiber appearance that may not be clear in the photo. You can pick apart the build to see all the settings.
Feel free to mirror this for right handed. 
The metal parts and neck are from a travel guitar I made quite a few years back. I hacked up a right handed Ibanez and an old lefty sawtooth for the neck. Even with these marginal parts it plays quite well for this amateur and holds tone. 
The tail and neck part are from Guyker. I found it on Amazon, but again very old so I don't have a current reference.
The neck pocket is aligned for a telecaster style neck pocket.
Feel free to improve and comment. I am just learning with the core one as my first real 3d printer and using the slicerA left handed Strandberg Boden style from an original routing outline from many years ago.

I separated build plates. The connectors have the originals from Prusaslicer and also a set I made that are 19mm Z length as the originals were too tight a fit.  I separated build plates.

My headstock hack was a little rough so I made the ornamental headpiece that jsut friction fits over the top. It is simply a play on the top body horn.

I am sure I forgot to mention or list stuff so feel free to ask questions. Enjoy!
