RecommendedUse a 0.6 mm nozzle to significantly reduce print times.

Neck
Needs a print bed of at least 340 × 320 mm (ex: Bambu Lab H2S)
0.6 mm nozzle
~5 hr · ~280 g
0.4 mm nozzle
~10.5 hr · ~270 g
Body
Fits a 256 × 256 mm bed
0.6 mm nozzle
~6 hr · ~490 g
0.4 mm nozzle
~12.5 hr · ~410 g
Small Parts
Bridge, bridge saddle, nut and electronics cavity cover
0.6 mm nozzle
~1.5 hr · ~80 g
0.4 mm nozzle
~2 hr · ~60 g
Total Print
0.6 mm nozzle
~12.5 hr · ~850 g
0.4 mm nozzle

All parts can be printed in standard PLA, but really any material works. For extra strength you can print the neck in ABS or a fiber-reinforced filament (optional). For outdoor or hot conditions, we recommend a material like ASA.

Kit Questions

When will my kit ship?

This is a pre-order. Your kit ships by December 1. Your print files are emailed right after checkout, so you can start printing today.

Can I split the neck into sections?

We don't recommend splitting the neck to fit a smaller printer. The neck is designed as one piece because a joint creates a weak point that can flex under string tension. It prints diagonally on a bed of at least 340 × 320 mm (ex: Bambu Lab H2S). Have a smaller printer? The DIY Kit + Pre-Printed Neck comes with the neck already printed for you.

Do I need to solder?

No. The electronics use plug-in connectors — no soldering required. The piezo pickup plugs into the preamp, and the preamp plugs straight into the output jack. You'll just need a Phillips screwdriver, a wrench for the tuner hex nuts, and a wood clamp to press the fret wires into the neck.

How do I get the print files?

You'll receive an email with a download link right after checkout: 3MF files with print settings already set, plus STL files if you'd rather start from a blank slate. You can start printing the body while your hardware and neck are on the way.

What filament should I use?

All parts can be printed in standard PLA, but really any material works. If the ukulele will see outdoor sun or heat, we recommend a material like ASA, which resists both heat and UV.

Is there a build guide?

Yes. There's a step-by-step build guide online and as a PDF download, plus a video tutorial. See the build guide.
