Here's a project that I just finished. It falls into "needlessly elaborate" category, but here it is nonetheless.
Here is the Retractable Ukulele. The neck slides closer to the bridge for easier transport.
It has a 13 inch scale length, and a overall length of 18 inches when extended.
When the neck is in the compact, the strings are drawn into the body through the soundboard with springs.
The length is just 12.5 inches when retracted.
The neck is secured in the extended and retracted positions with thumbscrews.
Here's a demo video:
