Here is what you need.  The sticky tape ready to apply-the glue and glue brush, the binding pieces cut to proper length-And so lets put it on.

first we need to prepare the uke to accept the binding.  This tail piece on the back needs to be cut down to accept not only the binding but a contrasting foot plate.  Probably of the same wood as the fretboard.

First, a little saw paves the way.

then, with chisel and finally a big bastard file the foot is flattened and ready for the binding.

And this is now ready for the binding.

Now the bindings are on.  A couple of hours and I can begin sanding.  The fun begins.
