Recently my daughter has started getting into playing the ukulele, I ran across the instructables post and it seemed like a pretty straightforward project, so I went for it. Video of it playing (terribly) in the substack post. I hope you all enjoy the read.

Cool stuff, but seriously consider getting your daughter a decent wooden one if she keeps being interested. They don't have to cost hundreds of dollars but something around $50 will give you a decent beginners instrument. From my experience plastic ukuleles sound terrible and are somehow not as easy to play.

Thank you, she does have a pretty decent one, this project was mostly just for fun and now she can choose between a pretty one and a normal one.
