Ukulele Building, cont


This picture shows the two sides being glued together



After the two sides are glued together they are placed into this forming jig.Note the jig is in two pices. The two halves are separated, the glued sides are placed in the jig. The jig is closed around the sides by turning the turnbuckles. This forces the sides to take the shape of the ukulele body. The next step is gluing the furring strips to the inside edges of the sides top and bottom while in the forming jig.
