The necks were shaped with a spoke shave, plane and rasp. I made a dummy fretboard so I could gauge the sides and location of key frets and the nut area. The head thickness was planed down to 15/16" and a 1/16" rosewood head plate was glued to the head covering the scarf joint and providing an aesthetic feature. The head and rosewood plate was shaped using the robo-sander. The next step is to provide a seamless fit of the neck to the ukulele body. Final shaping and sanding will be done after the fretboard is attached.
