Beautiful instrument. Where did you learn to make it?
 
I still need to adjust the action some and still some stretch in the strings. I'll trim things in a few days. I traded a set of mountain dulcimer plans for the ukulele plans with a friend. I believe the plans originally came from Georgia Luthier Supply.
