Showing how I cut my edges and snare beds on the router table, followed by some fine sanding by hand.
Thank you for uploading this! Very helpful.
You're very welcome!
Beautiful looking drums
Thanks for this video. I like your method of cutting the snare beds - I'm going to do the same with mine. The jig I made was too difficult to set up as precisely as I needed, and it resulted in an uneven cut. This method solves that. I appreciate you taking the time to film the process. Thanks!
That’s quite an aggressive snare bed
That's a beautiful shell
great video! Thanks
Does ANYONE have a good discussion on how to check for drum shell roundness.?
Thx
You can measure the diameter with a tape measure and check the size at different points around the shell. For more accuracy you could get a large pair of calipers. If it is the same size all the way around then it must be pretty round! My shells are usually within 0.5mm between the maximum and minimum sizes. so for example if I'm turning the shell to a finished diameter of 353mm, it will usually be between 353.0 and 353.5mm, which is a a pretty high degree of accuracy for a cylinder made from wood. A lot if ply shells vary in size by up to 3mm (1/8") between maximum and minimum points especially old vintage drums which often have flat spots, or bulges!
