Mrs T has made an unusual request..She wants to try using Baby Oil on the fret board as She dosn't like the Lemon oil...So I will obey and get some.
Synthetic, I hope? They don't still make it from real babies, do they?

The maker of the ukuleles can specify whatever he thinks is best for the fretboards. And the punters will use it and there could be posts waxing lyrical about the advice across the internet.
Maybe have some fun and add a line to the uke specs:

Peanut oil also eventually turns rancid. Will be interesting to see how things fare in a few more years.I used La Tromba woodwind bore oil for my piccolo for about ten years until the remaining oil started to smell 'industrial'. My rosewood traverso I oiled with sweet almond oil, but after many years that also turned rancid. I switched over to peanut oil about three years ago and it doesn't appear to be building up or turn sticky. After I have oiled my flutes I occasionally use the oily paper towel on thirsty looking fretboards. I leave the uke out for about an hour and then I wipe off the excess . The wood looks definitely good and there is no smell.
I'm obviously not allergic to peanuts, if you are then stick to something else.
UK punter definition?
Is it a gambler?
Is it a prostitute's customer (cf: Murder Call, Australian tv show)?
Is it a potential buyer for a used car (cf: Wheeler Dealer TV show)?
I'm from the US, and the use of "punter" has me a bit confused...sounds a little too universal. What does it mean?
same with strings...buy plastic fishing line (All kinds of line out there, many colours and types to choose from)...Cut it into lengths put e’m in packets think of a good name and sell at a large profit. :biglaugh:The maker of the ukuleles can specify whatever he thinks is best for the fretboards.
