This is an update to the first two videos about making the Mold, Since I drew the plans for this back in 2006 I have made some adaptations: The insert made with wood glue needed improving, while it was a nice touch to use waste material to make a soundhole insert, in practice it was a pain and only worked with adhesive that didnt shrink,The second part of this video shows the fitting of the mold with nut inserts so that it can be used as a clamp to hold the top and bottom during gluing, a fantastic idea! I have taken from the Ukulele maker Pete Howlett(many thanks for sharing this)
Petes great ukulele making series:

  • Once you have made a few prototypes its worth making a decent form to build on, but for one offs there is alot to be said for the spanish school of building with the instrument on a solera, or board and no mould/form

  • now that is a neat idea - maybe I ought to look at this mold situation for my next one - thinking about a baritone uke
