Five Folkcraft cardboard dulcimer kits in one box, for classrooms, summer camps, libraries, scout troops and dulcimer clubs. The pack saves $155 over buying five single kits: $99 per kit instead of $130.
Each kit builds a real, playable mountain dulcimer in about two hours, so a group can go from box to first tune in a session or two. The body parts are pre-cut from corrugated paper, and each solid hardwood fretboard is already slotted and pre-drilled, with a 27-inch scale. Strings, tuners (machine heads) and detailed instructions come with every kit.
Each builder will need: a small hammer (for tapping in the frets and anchor pins); a drill with #49 bit (for drilling the holes for the anchor pins and machine head screws); a small Phillips head screwdriver (for installing the machine head screws); a piece of sandpaper, either 120 grit or 220 grit (for fitting the nut and bridge pieces); a pair of wire cutters (for trimming the frets and cutting the strings to length); and a flat file (for finishing the ends of the frets). You'll also need to provide some white or yellow glue (for assembling the cardboard parts).
