I thought there might be someone on this board interested in the $100 Acoustic Instrument Challenge at the Musical Instrument Maker's Forum.
In a nutshell it is a challenge to build an acoustic, stringed instrument in two months and not exceed $100 in cost.
This is the second year for the challenge and whether you participate or not some of the build threads are wonderful. Some of the occasional posters to the Mandolin Cafe participated last year including Mario Proulx and Arnt Rian. It is amazing what can be built out of "substandard" material.
Link to the challenge rules is H E R E.
