Hollow log drum
« on: May 26, 2017, 11:21:41 am »
Here's a drum I made some time ago out of a hollow hickory log with osage legs and beef rawhide.
The handle of the beater is just a pine dowel wrapped with rawhide lace.The beater itself is a deer rawhide stretched and stuffed with buffalo hair I think stretched into a bulb.It was fun to make.

Really like the drum, beater, and stand.  I have been making small hand held drums for the great grand kids.  Thanks for shearing!  Joe

Thanks fellas.It's just another bucket list thing a I've thought about making.A list that is still very very long I'm afraid.
The log was naturally hollow neuse.Scored it while cutting firewood for the house.
