Bruce, Thanks for the info. will do.
I don't do x bracing on the smaller sizes of Ukes but do on the Baritones. It's very light bracing! I don't usually put the lower cross brace in and rather let the whole lower bout be open which gives a really nice pop to the attack whereas the x keeps it all together and spreads the fun around. The top in the pic is very (too?) flexible, so I added that brace more as a cleat than a tone bar. Keep it from bulging too much. That brace/cleat is really thin. It's really lovely wood so I'm using it anyway
