Introduction & hilarity
Hi All
I don't live anywhere near Aus (up in Alaska) but I am a budding luthier (1 so far on #2) some of you know me from the other forums. I build Ukuleles and love all things Hawaiian (my home) I look forward to learning more about some of your fabulous tonewoods. Might even build with some if the shipping doesn't kill me The auth code to sign up is hilarious Hesh did you know you are famous? Funny I didn't see any Dr***N****Ts on your web page

Pink paint is OK. Surely no-one can have anything against pink paint on a stringed instrument (especially if it's for a little girl!).
Black paint however... now there's a colour that should never be seen on an instrument!

Welcome Zac
From one uke maker to another, it's nice to have a kindred spirit on board . Currently building a Tenor from (frustratingly out-of-scale) plans from LMI, using a high-figured Tasmanian Blackwood set from the affable Tim Spittle (check out his informative Australian Tonewoods links elsewhere on this forum). Post us some pics of "The Pinkie" ... 'tis always good to share ideas & innovations about these fun-to-build instruments.
Cheers from Oz
