Building a better world, uke by uke.
This is my building diary. I build ukuleles in my apartment workshop. I try to label the posts, so if you're interested in anything in particular you might find it by clicking the labels.

Robin's soundboard braced
Finally. I re-used the brace closest to the neck, but made a new and slightly better for the middle one. Bridge plate has the same dimensions, but I have to evaluate the need for the single racer brace that was there originally. The cedar I use this time is stiffer and might not need it.
I think I'll have to rely on Robin's tinnitus, and just tell him it sounds exactly the same as before.
Looking good already! But the single racer brace didn't help at all when I fell on it... And as long as it sounds like a fun little toy guitar I'm happy.

ReplyDeleteI'll put in a two by four soundpost standing between top and back. Of course. And I'll buy you a push chair.
