Trying to work on a custom ukulele where the client insists on a recon stone faux turquoise rosette. The infamous Vegan Uke. I have found some faux turquoise from LMI in a 2"x 6"x 0.060" stock, but have no idea how to cut out a rosette. Obviously arcs have to be cut out and I can do that, but thinking of waste and how many arcs I have to cut. Some advice on how to do this appreciated. Interestingly, she sent a picture of what she wants from some guy named Chuck Moore. Never heard of him (!). Yeah Right... Below what she wants. My reply was: Just buy an uke from Chuck. I can't do this because it costs too much. Oh, and can you do a whale instead of a turtle? I like whales better... I have about reached the end of my teather and I'm gonna say: What you see is what you got. The custom uke from hell.
