Hello,
I’m in the midst of attempting to build my first instrument.
It’s the Hana Lima tenor uke and I’m using the plans and book but no kit. I’m using Red cedar. So as I’m making up parts I see the grafts are to be made running the grain opposite the length. Is there any issue using two pieces of red cedar veneer laminated together to achieve the recommended thickness? Do “real luthiers” ever do this?
