Most purfling is sized for guitars and is too wide for use on ukuleles. So, I shave my purling to about .008" wider than top thickness before gluing. To do this, the purfling is slid through a slot cut in the end grain of maple, and a scraper is used to shave off the extra width. Stewmac has a router jig, but it's very expensive. I was wondering about what other ways there are for doing it.
