I have made a huge mistake
When the only tool in your toolbox is a hammer, everything tends to look like a nail. When I started working on the 8-Bit Ukulele, my main tool was the laser cutter at CRASH Space. I mean, the whole point was to make a laser cut ukulele, inspired by Ranjit Bhatnagar’s 8-Bit Violin.
A violin neck is a very different thing from a ukulele neck, and I struggled with how to make the neck for quite some time. In fact, I set the project aside for years because I was stuck on this one bit.
I ended up laser cutting birch plywood slices which I glued together to build up the neck. I designed two different length pieces and side bits which could make the square head design. It seemed like a slick solution. And, again, laser cutter.
