Introducing the new Mini Ukulele Tuner. 25% smaller than my full-sized soprano ukulele model 3 tuners, but strong enough for long term use and holding string tension. I use these Mini tuners on my Mini, sopranino sized, pocket ukulele. Tuner Parts Each tuner consists of a base, a cover, a gear, a worm gear and a tuner knob. In addition to the printed parts, you'll need two #2 3/8 inch wood screws for tuner installation. The equivalent metric screw is M2x8mm. There are two versions of the worm gear, one with a 2 mm hole in which a 2 mm carbon fiber rod can be inserted for extra strength. The worm gear without the hole and carbon fiber rod is plenty strong for tuning the ukulele. But if the uke is dropped or knocked over, then the worm gear can snap right at the edge of the base and cover due to the sharp shock. If you are not clumsy (like me!) then the version without carbon fiber rod is fine. Printing I print all parts with 5 wall loops, 100% infill, and rectilinear infill pattern. For
