More mahogany

Not very well hidden, more of my dad's stash of 40 year old honduran
mahogany lies behind a sofa. I have given him an offer to trade it for
more contemporary african mahogany. He remains sceptical.

The planks in the photo are 45 centimeters wide, 3 centimeters thick
and... 4 meters long!

Wenge neck, cont.

After some quality time on the stationary belt sander it looks like
this. I have a feeling this could be ultra sleek and still hold up,
but a certain thickness is needed for playing. I know this after my
tenor no. 2 came out too thin, neck-wise. (On the other hand; the
soundboard was too thick.)

Safety first!

I recommend all aspiring builders to get a proper pair of shoes before
you attempt anything crucial. A pair not designed specifically for
these things simply do not work.

And they could jeopardize the future mojo of the uke your building.

Do. Not. Take. Any. Chances.
