Ukulele taking up too much space? Fold it.

If you're looking for a cool gift for your favorite ukulele player, this is it. It's 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 you'll 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 won't 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).
