Want cigar box w/ boat or nautical image

[Paul Miller Helbert]

I have a friend, a fellow boat builder, who has commissioned me to build a cigar box uke for him. Would prefer a nautical theme. (Sailing boats, canoes, owl & pussycat, mole & ratty, whatever). No hurry. Any leads / offers appreciated. Thanks!

I would do the neck in a lighter wood. Cut a wider headstock with rosewood spine and rounded head. (Will give the canoe paddle look), make the fretboard of Teak wood with brass or gold EVO  frets, and brass nut, (Being reminiscent of a boat deck and brass/bronze riggings), paint body black with a "Jolly Roger" applied :-)

You would probably get a faster answer if you started your own thread instead of posting your question in a thread that deals with an entirely different topic.

Open D would be DAD, Open G would be GDg
