We can bend sides to match the Tenor PL77 plan, the Concert PL62 plan, or the Soprano PL51 plan. The sides are sanded to approximately .075" and are left at approximately 2.5-3" wide depending on the plan. We recommend to new builders that they have us bend their sides the first time around.

If you have elected to have us join your back, you may also wish to have us profile it. We will profile your back to the shape you choose leaving approximately 1/4 inch of extra material beyond the outline. This excess material can be removed later, once your box is complete, using a router with a flush trim bit or by other appropriate means. Note the concert and tenor profiling cannot be used with soprano sized ukulele sets.

Product Description

Ovangkol often has subtle mineral deposits that can show up under the finish. We find the best way to deal with these is to apply a few coats of shellac prior to finishing. Shellac is nonreactive with other finishing products and masks the mineral deposits well (always test compatibility whenever mixing finishes). In addition, Ovangkol is a species that due to open pores, needs a pore filler. We recommend a dark pore filler as it's in keeping with the dark streaks running through Ovangkol and there's the added effect of hiding the mineral deposits.
