Cardboard ukulele

Made from box that ukulele came in, painted inside with PVA glue and a piece of bed headboard for the neck. (my wife hasn't missed it yet). Frets are cocktail sticks. Strings are used guitar. Video is my first and was only made to show a friend how it sounded. Please excuse my playing/singing. I hope to do better next time.

I'm glad the young ones are just begining to catch up with us old ones. Sorry, but delving in to the realm of DIY..... I made a sling to throw stones at the German bombers as they flew low over my home. Anyway, Happy new year to you.

@gulfsurfco Thank you for your kind comments. Not sure about the senior bit, we're not a different breed you know, and I'm only 76. But I know what you mean and I thank you for it. Friend John

An epitome of how music boldly transcends generations ...

Also, I am glad to see different people expanding their global knowledge and delving into the realm of DIY ...
