how to make djembe! part 2 of 2

[Valthepixie]

I bought a 2nd hand beautifully carved djembe recently. Unfortunately it has no skin (it had fur fabric lol) so I need to put a skin on it. It looks very fiddly and like you need a lot of strength to pull it tight. Thanks for the video you have saved me hours of swearing and cussing. :D

save your money get a long metal pipe

wrap some tape or cloth on the end to keep form scoring the drum. stick it between the verticles and pull

Unfortunately I was distracted by that breathtaking smile. Mmm. Must watch it again and concentrate. On the djembe making.

Somehow profound watching this: using animal skin and wood from trees to make musical instruments for ourselves.

Thanks for showing...I'd like to try that too sometime.
