[GreenTree732]

i couldn't hear your voice at all

[GirlFromIpanema]

wow! that is impressive! and you say that you don't know how to play the ukulele? sounds like you know it very well :)

[guitargodattheheart]

can anyone tell me how wide the neck of a tennor uke is?

[BadgerDervy]

@guitargodattheheart I don't know because this is a very primitively shaped neck (basically just a plank with some frets on) but on a proper one the width would be thinner at the nut. It would also vary between different makes etc. Maybe about 3.3 cm at the nut and about 4.1 cm where it joins the body. Are you planning to make one?

[guitargodattheheart]

@BadgerDervy yeah, a biscuit tin one like yours, would i benifit from adding sound holes in it?

btw nice bass you made!

[BadgerDervy]

@guitargodattheheart I don't know about the benefit of sound holes on tin instruments, but would recommend joining (for free) a site called Cigar Box Nation, which is basically an online community of people who make homemade instruments, I am sure there are people there you could ask

[elvinjohn7]

Wow. I am impressed. That kicks ass.

[KeniLeeBurgess]

Very nice build. Sounds pretty good. It seems you were able to get the intonation in. I like the little number at 3:10Keep building. They will only get better. Enjoy.

[alkh0bani]

[pumpkingonepimp]

you should try to make a bass.

[BadgerDervy]

Odd you should say that. Today I finished making a bass guitar.
