Has anyone built one of these?

Looks like it could be a nice design for travel or smaller players. I've played a GS Mini but they have that deep domed laminate back, which I can't really do. Wonder how it would sound with a more normal radius back.

I have the ultimate guitar plans for a ukulele.
My only complaint is that some of the measurements were practically on top of each other making it very hard to read. Separate detail drawings would have been nice and I don't understand why they didn't do some.

I wonder how accurate it is(?). And if one would be wise to build a little lighter than the plan suggests?

It seemed a bit heavy on the bracing to me too. I'd probably just do one finger brace on each side and one tone bar.
Really just curious if anyone had made one of these and how they liked it. (Maybe I'm trying to talk myself out of buying more plans lol)
