- Concluding the Fallen Oak stave snare drum project. I begin by routing my drum rims, then move on to sanding, epoxy filling(not part of my normal drum building routine), staining(also not part of my normal drum building routine!), finishing, assembling and playing!
Apologies for the very poor audio during the summary at the end. The drum sounds like garbage on the video when I am tapping it, but it really does sound great when beaten wildly with a stick. You'll just have to take my word for it.
I'll probably continue to make videos, more for my own entertainment than anything, I suppose. I'd like to get better at it. Plus, when archeologists find one of my fossilized drums at the bottom of some tar pit, a million years from now, perhaps the RUclips videos will have survived and they can learn how to make their own. Or maybe they can make a wax figure of me in my dingy green hoodie and baggy jeans. Would look great in a "suburban man" diorama at the Museum of Pre-Apocalyptic Cultures. "Ancient man had very little hair on their heads and dressed poorly. This was an adaptation caused by television and video games, which protected this culture from damaging rays of the sun and from awkward social interaction." But I digress...
Thank you to the 27 people who have ever watched my videos and especially you 16 who hit SUBSCRIBE. I do this all for you. Huge party planned for when my subscriber count hits 20....
Nice work! I really enjoyed watching this series and the result looks and sounds great.
Porous woods like oak can be fussy with tearout. Especially, with a lathe. Turned out beautiful!
I've added bearing brackets to the top of the drum on my inner milling jig. It's much more stable than the casters I used here. Still not perfect results, but much better now.
Great recovery on the wood blowout!
Amazing great job
Thank you!
I just finished watching this series you made. Great job! I've got a slab of acacia I was going to use for a table but it cracked in storage. I'm going to try and build my own stave snare from it. Thanks for the tips!
Joe, great! Glad you found it helpful. Acacia is pretty stuff, should make a really nice drum. Good luck!
@@fallenoakdrums either a drum or the body of a guitar. Both if the slab is big enough.
Bravo!
Nice drum at the end :D Try Walnut wood, think its the exact same colour as that stain on that wood :P
I have built 4 walnut snares over the last 4 years. Walnut is my favorite! I have walnut lumber for another 1 or 2 drums now and at some point, I think I am going to build myself a walnut kit. It's such a nice wood to work with.
@@fallenoakdrums Have to agree! :D Love working with it my self. Really want to build a kit to, but you know.. time..
@@fallenoakdrums i have enough walnut to make a 100 drums snares that is hit me up ill hook you up but i want credit in the vid
Great job. Where do you get your parts from?
Thank you. I mostly buy from drumfactorydirect.com. Occasionally I will buy SPL snare drums on sale from big box retailers and use those parts which are pretty good quality, on my own shells, and then sell the bare SPL shell off for a few bucks on FB.
final thickness of drum shell?
That one was probably just under 1/2". I got frustrated by the inner milling process, but would have liked to go for more like 5/16" with thicker rerings, which is what I've been doing on the many snares I've built after this one.
