Stew Mac Diaries 9


I have finished shaping the body taper. It is hard to tell from this picture, but there is an ever-so-slight taper from the tail to the neck. I also sanded the purfling around the soundhole and have started to roughly shape the face to glue it to the body.


The tail block has a taper on one end which I believe points toward the face. I want to double check this before gluing the face to the body.

I have been getting encouragement from ukulele enthusiasts from the world over. Thank you for your encouragement and advice! The translation industry is quite competitive, so it is a nice change to hear the kind natured advice of luthiers and players alike. Best wishes, brothers and sisters!
See you next time,
Kanagawa G
