Fabricate Bridge and Attach to Soundboard



Two new ukulele bridges were fabricated from rosewood. The new design has less mass than the previous bridges and is more appropriate for the concert ukulele. Bone saddles were shaped for the bridges. The bridges were located in their proper location using my Stew-mac bridge location tool. The shellac was stripped from bridge area and glued to the soundboard. The glue needs to cure 24 hours minimum before stressing it with strings.
