Ukulele Kit Construction, Part I

As soon as the second half of my workbench was built and my tools hung, the overwhelmingly manly urge to build something hit me. Given my long-standing interest in luthery, my small budget, and my limited selection of power tools I decided to try putting together a Grizzly H3125 ukulele kit as seen on BoingBoing in December 2004.

Conveniently, the kit was available from Amazon.com for the princely sum of $24.99 plus about $6 shipping. (as of January 24, 2005, the Amazon product page says the kit is not stocked or discontinued – you may have to order it directly from Grizzly.) The order shipped from Grizzly, and arrived as scheduled 4 or 5 days later.
