    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    Very nice looking uke.
    So far I have only done cigar box efforts but i would like to take the next step. I just need a prod in the right direction.
    My playing needs a prod too
    Regards

    Your uke looks great!

    I use the same finish - so easy and durable. It even works well as a floor finish. Used it on many ukes.

    I've found Qld maple to be a handful for back and sides. Difficult to avoid borers.
