Thanks for sharing my friend! Good work! Filling cracks is never fun, but you keep going - big respect.

hola,soy de argentina,tenes que mojar la madera antes de darle la forma,x sino se rompe o quiebra,despues secarla con fuego o al sol,una vez seca y con la curva hecha recien tenes q pegarla,es re simple(sorry i´m not speaking inglish)

Now I know why atabaques are so expensive!

Congrats on doing an awesome job!!

In hindsight, do you think you should've steamed the pieces of wood beforehand?

Fiquei com pena por ter quebrado a Madeira, mas tudo bem continua

Tente molhar a madeira antes para que ela fique maleável e não quebre. Depois seque ao sol.

--------------------

Try to put water on the wood. Thewet wood will not crack. Later, dry on the sun light.

Congratulations from São Paulo - Brasil

Nice work!
