Read this manual completely before starting the construction process. This will familiarize you with the parts of the ukulele used in construction, the specific procedures you will perform, the tools needed, and the time required.

During construction, we recommend trial-fitting before gluing components together. This provides the opportunity to fit items and correct any issues. It also helps minimize the amount of clean up necessary after gluing parts together. ALWAYS let glue set for the manufacturer's recommended time.

While this manual is meant to guide you through the complete construction process, we recom- mend that you refer to literature, expert advice, and other resources for further information.
