Steel Ukulele

Hey everyone. I was watching tv last night while playing my ukulele, and saw a guy playing a lap steel guitar. Naturally the thought came in my mind " I should make a lap steel ukulele." I researched it a bit and it has been done before but I just want to know what they sound like. It looks reaaaaalllly easy to do compared to an acoustic instrument. I'm sure I'll be putting my foot in my mouth for that but we shall see. So I guess I will build one !

Something like this in a ukulele form...
