I thought this video had been lost to the ether - but I found it and saved it for posterity

HA HA!

I smiled wide as I watched this video

A funeral pyre for a bunch of wood shaped like an ukulele! This is great!

I genuinely couldn't find the video - then did - had to preserve it! people did complain though - but to be clear

1. The uke was already dismantled to make the first video
2. It was fatally flawed (bridge in wrong place, frets in wront place)

Therefore could not have been sorted or even donated to make a cigar box uke. If it could have been I would have done!

Finally, you brought out its nice warm tone.
