Bro, thanks to your video I have decided to encourage myself to do Faakete, it is a new step for me and my training, which is why I had some doubts. Do you have a way to contact you to be able to pay for your advice?
On my initial build, I didn’t put anything inside. Now I cut a piece of 1/4” plywood to fit in there and use epoxy to hold it in place about 5 inches from the bottom.
@@Punisherx40 I feel so bad… I been all over Google since you last night and I can’t find the website anymore. The last few that I made, I made my own rings. Harbor Freight has the steel roller and I get the rods from Lowes. Roll them into the diameter you want, and find a guy to tack weld them shut. If all else fails, I ran across a website that sells them in the UK.
how do the skin resist to the stick hits ? a friend played Djembe with sticks and the skin popped torn when he hit too hard. So I was wondering the difference between Djembe and Faakete that makes it so the latter is playable with sticks. thanks alot for the video I'm trying to build one this week-end.
@@tinihaumalinowski7764 I have. But it takes a long time to wear through it. Especially if they are using thicker goat or cow skin. I did tear 1 skin but it was from careless transport. If a good skin were to break spontaneously, I think it would be due to moisture making it soft or some sharp splinter on the stick. If you look at my video from the North Carolina competition, you’ll see a guy Simi shredding on them…he broke a stick but not the skins!!!!!!!!
I have no clue how to make one but i going try.
Bro, Awesome, thanks for sharing your knowledge 🌺👏
Absolutely!!! Thats how we keep it alive. With all the information that’s been shared with me, its only right to pass it on more.
@@grindandshine5148 I like that thought, in the same way, I share this

Nice video bro , keep up the good work! Maruru
Bro your man! Can you build me 2 and send them to New Zealand?

Is there anything underneath inside pvc to close it with a board or is it just left open?

@@grindandshine5148does it make a difference with or without ply?
@@vaiona5156yes it does. The drum is not as loud.
Heyyyy Florida! Where are you located? ;)
We’re in the Space Coast/Cocoa Beach area
What ring are you using and where did you find? I can’t find anywhere

@@grindandshine5148 what thickness for the rod?
@@Punisherx40 1/8 inch or 1/4 inch depending on the drum
@@grindandshine5148 for sure thanks. I’ll check that out then
@@Punisherx40 absolutely!!! Also, make sure its cold rolled steel rods that you get.

Ive been playing on them at least 2 times a week since they were made and no problems. Surprisingly too since the skins were ordered from Amazon!!
@@grindandshine5148 have you ever seen a faakete skin break under stick hits ?
