I threw some commercial weedwackers on a washtub standup, and I'm thinking it's a little overkill for the engineering, with a whopping .177 E-string. I'm thinking that ideally the E would be .155, but I'm having a hard time finding a .120-ish
size for A. The .095 and .080 are no brainers. Any suggestions?
Got themm.... tell me how much you need.... how about $ 1 per string plus postage... bargain huh?

Sounds great , Sam! You tell me how to get you the dough. I'm actually thinking, E-.155, A-.120-ish, D-.105, G-.095. The current D and G (same size as above) have good projection and playability. I'd just as soon match 'em up with four of whatever you have in those size neighborhoods. Thanks, Brian
I think my next project is a baritone ukelele, using one of those cheese-ball pressed wood bowls. The bowl is
unwarped, has a good thunk, and was worth a quarter at a thrift store. I gotta work out the logistics for the rest.
