What do you need to make one? I have always wanted to make a cigar box ukulele but i don't know how or what you need to make one. What kind of tools and materials do you need and how much does it cost? Where could i get the materials?

Schubs you may want to try the luthiers and builders section. I am curious as to how you do this as well. DeG built one and I played it. He told me how he did it but I kinda forgot already.

I have got to find me a ceegar box. Then I'll buy a neck and fretboard, bridge, saddle and nut, and tuners from hoosierhiver.

Yup, Luthier's Lounge is the place to check it out, but first, use the Search function and see what you can find that's already been posted. Like this thread: Please Explain Cigar Box Ukuleles To Me

And check out this forum/site: Cigar Box Nation
