ukulele case

DJ has been rocking out on the ukulele. He also has to carry it back and forth from home to pm on a regular basis. I decided to make him a case out of cardboard, tape, staples, sewing materials, and buckles.

don't play with knives, kids

first I traced the uke and cut it out using a utility knife and cutting mat.

then I taped the sides together using masking tape

finished skeleton.

then I sewed on some fabric, a handle, and buckles for closures.

I left a bit of the lionshead box showing for DJ.

The support inside the case is made of a plastic bottle.

All in all a successful and useful project.
