Itty Bitty cigar box ukulele
dismount:
Hi everbody, just finished up a new uke I wanted to show off some. Its a sopranino scale smaller than the small est uke. It's cherry neck with a spanish cedar body with a thin veener of spanish cedar overlay on the head stock. the fret board is pallet wood maybe mahogany heart wood. I will have to use a draw knife on my fingers to fit the frets. Its pretty small but it's loud and clear. Thanks for lookin at it Dismount

Nice job, dismount! In my "other" free time, build Mountain Dulcimers, Lyres, Kannel/Kantele, and Spanish Rebecs.

DanaM I was going to call it cute but I thought I'd lose man points :-\ Thanks Ken I don't khow what those last two instruments are but I bet its hard to build 'em
islandpiper:
Dismount, you mentioned in a PM that you were traveling, and would try to CARRY YOUR UKE ON.......sounds like a trip to Northern Canada......( get it? Uke On.....?? :) :) :) :))
Nice job, looks like you have it figured out. I have two new violins in progress now and also a Medieval Vielle, one of the very first violin-type instruments.
Keep up the good work. But, don't quit your day job. Piper
