Hello again!

This week, as I said last week, I cut my nylon strings to the right length. The distance between the both ends where I'll tie the strings is 18 inches. I will need some extra space to tie the knots and the long-term tuning. So, I decided that 25 inches was an appropriate length for me to cut each string. This weekend, I won't have as much time to work on it because I'll be traveling, so I will just do a few finishing touches this weekend, like sanding and making sure the structure is good. This coming week I plan on start staining my ukulele. This will for sure take longer to do than the other parts of my project because we have to acknowledge the drying time so I might not stain it all this week. I will definitely start the process and do as much as I can.

Thanks for reading!

  6. Almost there! What color do you plan on staining you ukulele? Are you just going to stain it clear to bring out the grain in the wood or are you going to add color to it?
