This Soprano size ukulele is a 3 piece design:

  • Body
  • Fretboard
  • Bridge

It has a conventional headstock in contrast to my other headless design.

It has a groove in the neck to accommodate a neck rod to stiffen it as most 3D printed plastic is too bendy under string tension. Use something like this for the in-neck rod:

Also it is meant to be fitted with:

  • simple friction tuners like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E3UA3JQ
  • simple bridge pins like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006X0UCKY

You can see/hear a demo of it on Youtube https://youtu.be/ooCCqn-EJtk

How I Designed This

Open SCAD

Scaling spheres, making sure gradient is smooth where parts meet, lots of trigonometry :-)
