Thanks to all of you who offered suggestions. With so many curves in this case, every step of the way was a challenge - even the inside padding. Because of the shape, hinges won't work, so four hasps hold the lid on. I have to make the inside a bit neater, and I've ordered rubber feet. My next case will be a simple rectangular one.

Looks great - obviously, a multi-talented man! How many on backorder from your new business???

Thanks for the compliments. I'm not good enough to offer these for sale. "Good enough" is good enough for me. This was a challenge and a learning experience. I often accept ridiculous challenges. : )

Very nicely done!! I like that you followed the shape of the ukulele instead of just making it round.

If I didn't give it a bell shape, it would have been rectangular - like the next one. I could have bought a standard case for half the price, but what fun is that?
