Travel Ukulele Build

A quick build video of my travel uke.

Thanks to Daniel @ CircuitsAndStrings for the original design.

I modified his plans to soprano scale and cropped the bottom a little to make for an even more compact unit. Almost built his backpacker design, but I do love the visual design of the bottom and this version would accommodate for an electric build one day perhaps.

You can check out his build details and plans here:

Turnaround also from the same teak

Apologies for the poorly lit later scenes. We have had a mix of good and bad weather, ending in a cyclone. Moving into the cold part of the year here, my daylight work time diminished too.

Thanks for visiting.
