Sometimes I have a lot of patience, and sometimes I have the patience of a 3 year old. So when I changed strings and the intonation on one string was way out of wack, I decided on the latter.
Let me start off by saying that this particular ukulele had some bridge placement issues after I lowered the strings a few years ago. No problem, don't move the bridge, just extend the saddle. Oddly enough I didn't find any difference in tone or volume.
So if one string is way off, just cut the saddle into pieces and turn one around. Still no impact on sound or volume, might be better but no worse.
Some may think it is odd, I think the split saddle looks pretty cool... this saddle is made of hard maple... but that is another story.

PS... If the next set is fine, I'll just turn it back around.
