Hey everyone, I just posted a long blog post about building a soprano ukulele. It has lots of pics for your enjoyment. I figured I would just direct you there instead of re-posting all the pics here:

It is a kumalae shaped soprano with a 14inch scale length and an extra wide and beefy neck. Enjoy!
Aaron

Lotsa cool pics I really like the idea of using surgical tubing as a non damaging way to hold things together

Aaron - the surgical tubing works better if you go longitudinally with the neck... I use to use this method before going back to bolt on method.
