There are now easier ways to make these drums using Machines. But the drums would never be the same.

how sweet would it be to make your own djembe? one day.

[pkramer2]

lol i do make them, but not like that.. this is kewl as hell

[maximon72]

du you have a greater quality video of this?

i think it was an excellent idea to document this process as not many people know the lengthy and arduous process in making a djembe in Africa
