Every Once and a While...

Post by latzanimal »

I build drums. Here's a couple of pics of the 2 cocobola snares I built. One is 8" deep, the other is 6.5". Both are 14" diameter. Cast Bronze Hoops that were bought from a place in Duluth.

A Big thank you to Cae..

That's a beautiful Drum. Not ready to cast your own rings? They don't look easy to cast.

Oops, should have said Beautiful Drums! :D

Very nice drums, and yea, the bronze really looks nice against the cocobolo. The only thing I'd be worried about is the bronze tarnishing over time, or do you have a way to prevent that?

Thanks Guys!

Casting hoops, drumshell... ;)

The hoops are clear lacquered, I did lacquer the brass lugs.
