How to make a ukulele, banjolele, banjo ukulele, guitar stand.

In this instructible I will attempt to show how to make a ridiculously cheap, easy and cool looking stand for an instrument. I say easy because it only took about 30 minutes on my first attempt.


What you need-
- 2 fibreglass tent poles with metal joiners on one end
-30cm of stiff wire
-Thin foam packaging
- 40cm of string
-Pine 90x10x20 (mm)
-Pine 120x90x50 (mm)

Step 1 Bend the wire to make the neck support

Take the wire and bend it in half. Putting one end in a vice twist the the wire round itself, only do this halfway along the wire. Take 1 tent pole and cut the metal part of it off. Drill a 4mm hole through the top of the metal part for the wire to go through. Thread the wire which hasn't been twisted through the hole in the pole and continue to twist on the other side of it. Bend the twisted wire into a neck support.
