Other than the fascinating conversations, tips and insights from the symposium, this is what i took away with me on Saturday.
First up, you will notice that that neck looks pretty well..... complete. Well, yes it is - its been persuaded off a new Ohana - and I'm grateful for it - this is supposed to be a jolly little intermission of a project for me, not a blimin baptism of fire. Making a ukulele neck (and more specifically fret-board) is more than i'm prepared to do right now.
The box itself is a genuine cigar-box. Sadly though its never even had a sniff of a cuban - its a brand new box diverted from its route to the cigar factory.
The rest comprises of some bits of wood for bracing, spars and fixing things to. Then theres the bridge and of course some strings.
3 pages of instructions, and a heap of enthusiasm
