As a woodworker, you sold me on the concept of spending way too much time and money on some thing that you can buy for a fraction of the price 😅
greatest youtube video ever. period.
totally agree. the dry sense of humor seals the deal.
pro mark used to make a pair of sticks out of japanese white oak, the 777s. they still make a few kinds out of that wood but not the same profile i like. i work at a sawmill so i have pretty much an endless supply of wood and you don’t need much to make a pair so i’ve been setting aside oak butch and maple to make some when i finally get a lathe. i’m excited to mess around with different profiles. i’ve thought it would be cool to make a pair that’s just the two butt ends up the stick because a lot of the time i play with my sticks backwards anyway. i need to find some japanese white oak too to make some. one of the reasons i liked those pro marks so much was because of how heavy they are. playing hickory or whatever kind i’ve been using just isn’t the same. and i blow through a pit in like three songs. great video you mentioned some things i hadn’t thought of, the sanding with the grain is a good point all the other videos i’ve seen they just sanded it on the lathe
Great tips! No pun intended....Great Job!
Great video and approach ;) Thanks!
great info!
This may be the answer I've been looking for. First...yes I am a musical. A drummer, guitar player, bassist, I play mandolin, lap steel, and sax. But those days are done. My talents are focused mostly towards painting these days. I recently bought a a set of bamboo handmade brushes (don't ask what I paid for them)...they are beautiful though. So I got to thinking. "I can make these with hard woods, burn art into them, finish them nicely and sell them.
Only I have no idea where to start or how I'd make the handles. Brush factories use these pre cut handles and all kinds of specialty tools (which isn't special at all)
So my question is... How small can that thing shape the wood down?
that was great
Awesome video. Looks like all the sticks I bought were well studied :)
Hello sir. Maybe I missed it but what is the name of the equipment you are running the wood through?
It is called the Veritas Dowel Maker. Thank you for asking!
Cyanoacrylate (super glue) the best drumstick finish and repair substance I have found.
Yep !
I was thinking the same thing!
I'm gonna try cutting small branches out of a maple and use my drill in a vise as a lathe.
Is there any kind of drying process you need to do if you're starting from dowel rods?
What is the name of the machine?
What are the machinse needed for all this process to start
What is the name of that machine used for making sticks
All drumstick companies sand the stick in the lathe so it can't be a bad idea.
You would just need to taper down to a really fine sandpaper... Like 1000 grit
Nice job I was to church ⛪ my pastor drumsticks breake and I still beat and he buy a knew sticks and I didn't know
I’d rather stick with your method. I actually hate buying sticks from the store..great!!
Thnx do u have resapee for a flute fife drum stick le .
Nice. Have you considered a CNC lathe? Would drastically reduce time and would increase consistency…?? The upfront cost would be quite a bit but eventually could be worthwhile
Hmm just looked into the prices of CNC lathes…. Maybe a tad pricey haha
How can I get the machine
What am I doing? It’s 3 in the morning and I’m high af watching videos on making drumsticks
6:59 haha… *nice*
Why you put that fat tip?
And when you get done making A Set of Sticks you can have a bbq chicken Drum Stick because after all that work you're going to be really hungry great Video
That sticks its not streing. Wobling
