GETTING CLOSE TO STRING UP

I have three ukes ready to string up.  First will be Carla's,  then Diann's.  Always a fun and stressful time.

My first act will be installing the  tuners.  These are Gotah UPT tuners with a 4 to 1 gear ratio.  I have found them to be excellent, dependable and handsome.

In the meantime the sides I bent yesterday still rest in their molds drying and setting their shapes.  I like to leave them curing for 48 house hoping for no spring back when they are released

Here is another way to dry the bend
