FallenOakStaveSnare - Part3 - Inner Milling

Continuing on with the Fallen Oak stave snare drum project, I show you the inner milling of the oak snare drum. It goes okay, and then it doesn't. But I'm sure I will find a way to fix my mistakes in later videos!
Sorry, no upbeat music in this one. I kept it low key and just narrated over the top of my silent video clips, adding a super mellow TH-cam provided mood music track underneath it all. It's quite haunting...also, was way easier this way.
I plan at least 1 more video to wrap up the series. Subscribe to my channel!

I would put springs on your top mounted castor mechanism that way it has constant pressure pushing against the drum

and two sets just like the bearings on the bottom.

I`ve found that i get better results when i move the router with the staves back and forth with a rounded tip router bit. Eliminates alot of the hazzel turning the shell while you rout against the grain.

Hi Fredrik, thanks for the comment. I should look into that. The inner milling is my least favorite step in drum building. I have made improvements since the time of this video, but it still is not as problem-free as I would like it to be!

I also would choose a cove bit for the inside.

i have a way different approach to this i build segmented shells i like to sand the last 1/16th off i.d and o.d. its less agressive

Buen trabajo, una idea o ayuda, en las ruedas superiores para ajuste automático de podrían colocar unos muelles en los tornillos de ajuste y dejando libre los propios muelles ajustarían la presión sobre el casco.

Thanks! I did try a spring solution but still had trouble. Now I use a cargo strap to hold the drum in place and it's been going very well! Thank you for the nice comment!

Hola otra vez, he visto muchos vídeos y veo que casi todo el mundo lo hacen a mano, he hecho una máquina que ya lo hace sola, gira la caja y la fresadora se mueve sola, me ha llevado un tiempo pensar como hacerla, pero ya hice pruebas con ella y funciona, incluso los chaflanes de los bordes ya los hago con la misma máquina.
