If youβre looking for a cool gift for your favorite ukulele player, this is it. Itβs a kit for a folding soprano ukulele. The parts are made of laser cut bamboo. All you need is some sandpaper, glue and a few other miscellaneous items and youβll be able to build your own instrument that just happens to fold up into a nifty little package that can easily stow in your backpack. The resulting uke wonβt sound as good as a traditionally built instrument, but it will make a fun do-it-yourself project. There are two kit designs to choose from, which are priced from $75-$87.50 (pictured). If you donβt want to take the time to build the kit, you can even buy them already finishedβ¦ but for the price of the finished kits ($250 β $375), you could buy a decent regular uke.
