You know that pointy shape at the end of a Martin ukulele fretboard has a name?
Its called a "Pondalog" according to some Martin guys in a Stewmac video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZokdH-rfsYs

I've worked in a lot of factories and its funny how everything on the line gets a name eventually
This came up earlier in a post by Pondoro with some nice templates http://www.ukuleleunderground.com/forum/showthread.php?82636-Mustache-fretboard-ends

I'm not going to argue with Dick Boak, but I've heard it called, and I currently call it a "parend".

Now I remember !

ld:...This came up last year on this thread http://www.ukuleleunderground.com/f...547-Pontolog-or-Pontalog&highlight=pendalogue And I did a bit of research.. the correct spelling is French (I think) "pendalogue"
