  • I've learned a lot about steam-bending and I'd like to share a little with you.
    I use these rims on many of the DIY banjo kits that you can see over at www.carverbanjos.com

    Outstanding! this is my first time viewing a banjo rim being made. I was searching for electric banjo topics and your name came up in one you might have manufactured in the past. Thank you and great job👍👍

    Great stuff! It looks like you soak and steam the walnut...How long are you soaking and how long are you steaming? Thanks!

    Great video, and very detailed I’m going to have a go at this, but will a 3/8” thick rim be strong enough to use steel strings

    Hello Mr. Carver, I am curious as to how long the plank of wood is to make that 12" rim and also what the size (diameter) of the dowel jig is, the one that you originally wrap the wood around. Would it be 12" or smaller? Also, what is the material that you use to assist in bending the wood? Brilliant work here!

    Thanks for posting this. I've always had lots of questions about the process. Most rims are multi ply. Is added strength the reason. I always wondered if the lamination dulled the tone. You are young, as I was once. A work bench that allows you to stand will save a lot of wear and tear on your knees and back. I know. I used to work like that. Wish I had not. Cheers!

    Brian: I have a mountain banjo whit no relief in the neck, its straight no angle what so ever. Is there any way to lower the action a bit on a older mountain banjo with a straight neck? Thanks Richard

    Can I know what's the name of the belt tool that you fix the rim on the circle jig?
