When you can step outside and pick raspberries for your Corn Flakes, it is officially summer.
There is going to be a huge crop this year, and they are delicious. I will show you the patch one of these days. Growing abundantly right beside the driveway. Bountiful!
But, back to ukuleles. I got the ring in the side sound port this afternoon. I think it is Alaska Cedar that will match well with its cousin Port Orford cedar on the sound board, But I am thinking a better choice might have been a ring that was darker to match theBubinga. Oh well, It is done now.
Here is the interior view showing the patch I always glue in to support the side.
I think these two are finished and ready to get their bridges, strings, tuners, saddles attached. I think I will get at that in the morning.

Just a little more work to get these lovelies singing. Hopefully at this time tomorrow I will be enjoying a martini as I play these two instruments gauging their tone, resonance and overall quality. I am hopeful and expectant.
