Thanks Dave and Kevin,
I am getting truly excited! I had the best morning with some good music playing methodically fretting the fret board. I have to start cooking diner, but if I get a couple of hours in the afternoon I can set her up.

Re: harp ukulele project - Gluing down the bridge...
I really need to wait a few days on the finish as I have been still mussing around with the top FP. But I could not help myself I rough cut the nut and saddle, put everything together and put on one of the sub base strings. I had it tuned to the A string of a normal guitar as that is the note the string I grabbed sounded best. It sounds ok. When the bass plays everything is vibrating.
