Thanks for posting this video, Len! Exciting to see their new Mandolins (or Ukulele with eight steel strings) at 0:43. And how cool is their new prototype with a bevelled armrest and a side sound port?! This is my new favorite dream uke right there:

 
I am simply shocked at how clean they are able to keep all of these shops...Hawaii, Indonesia, wherever. Any time you have wood and saws and files, particles are bound to fly everywhere. I imagine as much time is put into building ukuleles as cleaning the shops!
 
Who were those guys at the end of the video? I only recognized Andrew from HMS.

Noa Bonk(Ko'olau) and John Kitakis(Pono) Andrew's brother and father with the factory managers

Well, that's my next ukulele too.
