OK, lets get back to ukulele building. Today we will trim the fretboard to shape and mark its position on the rough neck piece
The Ebony wood fretboard has been rough trimmed. The fretboard edge must now be made perfectly straight. To do this pat clamps a metal straight edge right up the the rough edge of the fretboard. Click on these images to make them bigger.
The fretboard and metal straight edge is now placed on the belt sander and material is removed until the metal straight edge touches the sander belt
The trimmed fretboard is now clamped to the rough neck and the fretboard position is marked so that the rough neck can be rough trimmed and shaped.
More tomorrow, stay tuned
