Thanks for all the tips, guys. Todd....I appreciate the detail and pictures. My only objection to the fiberglass was the cost through luthier warehouses. Now I'll make my own!


Beth, I made my own too, I use bamboo for the reason cheap :D but I thing that's good elasticity, And the bamboo alot around
here. I cut 20"-21" and I use the table for install... bliss

Beth,
I got mine from http://www.goodwinds.com too. Good price and ALOT cheaper than LMI.

Might have a few extra around here I could send you.

Hey Hutch! Thanks so much for the kind thought. I actually did order from Goodwinds and got them this week. Had them cut them to 24" for me. And you're right about the price! Got my Go Bar deck from LMI and I'm all set. Should be taking it for it's maiden voyage this weekend on a new tenor uke I'm making :)

Goodwind kites. +1. Where I get mine. I buy them in the 72" length and cut for my needs with a Dremel carbide blade.

Buy extra bags of tips.
