Ukulele build

Alright, i'll start a discussion. Newbie to CBG, did not know anything about this type of music till a little while ago. Some of your members from here invaded FOTMD site and showed their builds and my curiosity got the best of me and i liked what i saw. So i wandered over here and thought to myself kool i want to build me one. I've built three Dulicmers so far, pictures on my page. While looking around CBG site i saw the video of Andy with his uke and thought that was really kool. So now i'am going to start on this quest to build one. I'm in the gathering process now. Got lumber for the neck, pegheag, piezo for pickup, now looking for a box to build out of. I'll get some tuners and strings. Downloaded plans from here so that's what i'll use. Any suggestion for where to source supplies. Thanks and when i have all supplies i will start a blog for my build and for any and all questions i know i'll have. Bill

  • hi bill. which plans did you use?
  • There's a number of ukes on the site; here's the one I built:

    Bolt-on neck, nylon strings, tenor scale length....First try at one of these; turned out OK.
  • Stew-Mac has everything. A little pricey, but complete...
