Between my brother and BoingBoing.net, I found that Grizzly Industries offers a semi-DIY ukulele kit for only $24.95. If you have more time than cash, this might be the thing for you: http://www.grizzly.com/products/Ukulele-Kit/H3125 They also offer these musical instrument kits: http://www.grizzly.com/products/category.aspx?key=235040 Apparently, this soprano uke can be built in less than a week.
Here's a step up in the world of uke kits. This comes from Stewart-MacDonald. Their soprano and tenor kits feature solid mahogany bodies. Eye spik da tooth! Soprano goes for $99.99 or $119.97 with the instructional DVD from Gordon and Char Mayer of Mya-Moé Ukuleles. The tenor kit goes for $136.98. Link here: http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Kits/Ukulele_Kits.html These look more challenging than the Grizzly kits, but this is also an opportunity to have a solid mahogany uke.
I thought I would pass on these links to those confident with their skills.
