I glue it with epoxy and then put 2 or 3 screws into the bridge between the holes for the strings through the box lid, with a long oval "washer" cut out of an empty vegetable can. I position the bridge and mark for the holes on top and drill the top. After I glue the bridge, I drill and screw from under the lid into the bridge using the long oval "washer" cut out of an empty vegetable can which is per-drilled to match the holes in the lid. Gitty sells the little screws that I use. They are similar to the screws used for sealed gear tuners. The long oval washer is also epoxyed to the underside of the lid.

I like them and their names too. I am going to do a uke soon. How do you attach the saddle to the box?
