No it is not misspelled... This is the first post of a multi-part blog that will cover design and building of an electric DIY Uke that I call Unolele.
As the title says part 1 is to dream a little. One of the biggest advantages of building your own Unolele is that you can actually make it look like whatever you want. The picture below shows some body shapes to inspire you. You are not limited though. Think about whatever unique ukulele shape that you want. Note that the picture is from Guitar Makers Online .

"You can actually make it look like whatever you want."You can even take it to more extremes if you like. Dream a little?
- Robot shaped ukulele - no problem.
- Millennium Falcon shaped ukulele - no problem.
- Star shaped ukulele - no problem.
- Emoji shaped ukulele - no problem.
- Tractor, fruit, people, just keep dreaming.
You will of course be limited to some basic dimensions for scale length and also make sure you can reach the finger board. I will cover more of these basics as I go forward with my own design and build of what I will claim is the perfect Unolele. Now dream, sketch, dream.
