Ukulele neck wants a divorce from the body

 I received a Ukulele from

PVMUSICHOUSE that seems like it really does not want to be part of the big picture anymore, and is coming apart from the body right at the heel.

It wants a divorce!




















I started by making sure we have a structure in front of the heel, because we will be using a clamp to put pressure there once the glue is applied. Then some sanding:

Sanding so the hide glue has rough area to adhere.





After unclamping and cleaning up the area with some mahogany marker, scraping the dried glue from the edges, this turned out great. 



And I'm an idiot because in my rush, I forgot to take pictures of the final work.
