I'm looking to replace the styron fretboards on a few old Harmony ukes with a wooden one of a similar thickness (thin, 1/8" or less) but I don't have a thickness sander. I have a couple nice planes, but my skills aren't up to snuff right now and I'm having a hard time keeping things flat at that thickess. Can anyone point me to a source for thinner stock? Most of what I see out there is 1/4" or so.
Or...if any builders here have something on hand or could give me a quote for 4 soprano blanks , I'd appreciate it. I'm not looking for high quality rosewood or ebony or anything. Alternate woods, lower grades or stuff you want to get rid of will be just fine for this project. I'll be slotting it myself for the short 13" scale length.
Thanks,
Chester
