That leaves me with 40 mm at the widest part to cut with the (also miniature) bandsaw, or with a japanese hand saw. The piece that will become sides has 10 mm left in the middle, and I saw that it already went through the process once, giving me sides to another ukulele.

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.
Feel free to contact me if there is anything you want to ask, or even better; tell me.

Mahogany [sort of] resawn
I cut the biggest piece from last post into three neck profiles, and a chunk for sounboard and back. With a 0.8 mm blade in my miniature table saw, I cut as deep as I could from all edges. The cut got a bit wider than the nominal kerf on the blade, since I made several passes, gradually raising the blade.
