supplies/tools
read this manual completely before starting the
construction process. this will familiarize you with
the parts of the ukulele used in construction, the
specific procedures you will perform, the tools
needed, and the time required.
During construction, we recommend trial-fitting
before gluing components together. this provides
the opportunity to fit items and correct any issues.
it also helps minimize the amount of clean up
necessary after gluing parts together. ALWAYS
let glue set for the manufacturer's recommended
time.
While this manual is meant to guide you through
the complete construction process, we recom-
mend that you refer to literature, expert advice,
and other resources for further information.
