Don't use a Ratio as a shutoff valve!
I wish you had told me that an hour ago. : )
I received two more sets of Ratios today.
Don't use a Ratio as a shutoff valve!
The installation looks really good with the stock bushings, almost factory!
I may have to grab a set of these soon to try them on one of my ukes
Delivery is fast. My last order arrived in four days. I think I'm putting a set on a Vita Uke.
Sounds as if you are addicted!
Are these available in the UK?
Do they still deliver mail there?
Place an order with Pohaku Ukulele. It won't be free shipping, but it should be available. Let us know what you find out. Sorry I can't post a link, but it's pohakuukulele - etc.

Believe it or not we do still have a functioning post office.
Thanks for the info. I'll check them out. I fancy trying them on one of my Brukos.

I know it's not quite the same as shipping from Pohaku in the USA to you in the UK, but I've had a good experience with RoyalMail (the only option available at the time):
https://www.royalmail.com/
to ship from the UK to me in NJ, USA.
I ordered a few small items from Eagle Music Shop in the UK, and for $7 USD shipping (which I thought was nice and cheap) I received my items in the USA in 9 days from the date of payment. RoyalMail handed off to the US Postal Service (USPS) and then to my mailbox.

I would hope that similar efficiency would be possible going across the pond in the other direction.
Nice install. Looks like the Ratio bottom plate covers the old tuners screw holes? Or were you able to line up on set of holes and then just drilled a set? Any pics during the initial placement of tuners on the Uke? Congrats. I gotta try a set.
It just seems to me that they should be able to make these new plastic tuners to the specifications of the many tuners that exist. I'd think that a larger number of the Chinese imports have the holes in the same exact spot; it would be brilliant if the Ratio Tuners could simply be "plug and play."
