Hai, I need help for string fit..

while I'm building EUB (electric upright bass) from Motolla free Plan, 35" scale length

I bought 34" long scale GHS string Bass Boomers 50-115 Heavy, now the EUB almost done, my problem is
the string not enought , so I measured if 35" long that not fit also, maybe need 46" long,
so I need help to fix this problem.. this is my 1st bass EUB

this is the picture I take from Motolla

thank's

I can't help you with the strings but it's a cool looking little bass.
