Ukulele Action Adjustment - How To Lower The Action On A Ukulele

How to lower the ukulele string height to make it easier to play. By lowering the ukulele saddle I can lower the action of the ukulele so string height at 12th fret is between 2.5mm & 2.75mm making the ukulele much nicer to play.

I want to give this Batking tenor ukulele to a deserving student in school but unfortunately the action at 12th fret was almost 3.5mm which is really high for a ukulele. I show you how to lower the saddle easily using a string action ruler, sandpaper and a pencil .
