Instructions unclear I now have a black Pegasus in another dimension. Kidding (not really) but I just made my drum using your kit! I would have loved to see this from the very start. I did figure out my own way in the end though. I need to order some leather to make a bag to keep it in.
Hi Kor... lol on the Pegasus!!! We will be putting a link to this video in our instruction kit to help people in the future. Glad it all worked out in the end.
The drum will change tones throughout the year, will change with different humidities. But can be 'tuned' by warming or applying a slightly moist towel for a short duration.
Super excited we have an elder coming in to help us make the drums at our university. My question Do we need hot water to soften the hide before we begin. Mussi
Have a video teaching how to sew the drumstick head cause I’m kindof lost with how it should start. The same senew that comes with it is used to sew it and tie it onto the stick?
We ordered a drum a while ago and we’re just now putting it together. Did you say that sheep wool was supposed to come with the kit for the drum stick.
@@timothykoopjr8702 Hi Timothy, our adult drum kits (12" and larger) should have come with wool to stuff the stick. The kids versions do not. If we forgot to include the wool, send us an email, we send some to ya! Thanks!
Could you do a video on making the drum stick please. I'm reading my directions and drilling the hole and sewing through i don't get...I also loose my head while drumming :(
I received my 4 kits, however, I did not receive instructions for assembleing my drumsticks. How can I obtain this information 🤔. Thank you so very much
Would anyone be able to help? Mine has dried, but the skin is warped (it's loose in some part and tight in others, but doesn't seem to be related to the lacing). I let it sit near a window when drying and I fear that may have done something to it. Is there any way to fix it? It's dried solid now. Thanks in advance is anyone has any tips!
All of the products Ive ordered from these folks have been amazing. Please support them if you're interested in making your own drum ♡

@Tribal Spirit Music Yes, perfect. but only one signed it doesn't go out of tune easily?

Cold water! Very important. Never hot water, as the hide will 'cook' and weaken. :). soak for 24hr max. Have fun!!

could you please email me? I will shoot a video for you monday. Thanks Robert
Hello. excellent video. I have a question. Is just a firm pull on the strings enough to stretch the leather?
yes....like you say, just firm....it is REALLY easy to over pull a drum.....and then drum goes TING TING TING instead of BOOM BOOM BOOM lol
Hi, you do any finishing on the frame? Like bee wax or varnish??
No, there is no finish on the White Ash.
We ordered a drum a while ago and we’re just now putting it together. Did you say that sheep wool was supposed to come with the kit for the drum stick.
Everything else is beautiful. I was just wondering because I got some that I bought that I could put in it.

How do you burn the sinew without singeing the leather?
Just a few quick passes with the lighter should do it without marking the leather.
How much for a kit
Our website has all our pricing and details. www.tribalspiritmusic.com
How long do we soak the hide and sinew
Overnight for the soak. I cold water. :). Enjoy
My drum dried and warped. How do I fix it ? Thanks lots.
