Re: Need Advice on Ukulele Setup
I use StewMac's 0746 fret wire and aim for 1/8" off the board at the 12th fret.

Re: Fitting The Dovetail Neck Joint.
I hate the look of bodies with a flat area at the heel, and it's not any harder to fit the neck on a nicely rounded body. Sounds like you machined it well, though I'd like to see it be a bit more than 1/16" proud, but that should work. If it's not enough, you simply add shims. Floss it careful...

Re: I need advice on removing a bridge
Have you considered drilling out the holes a bit larger and installing string ferrules? I have not. The hole from the backside of the bridge is about 9/64 diameter.
