Greets all as some of you know I am a builder of hand Drums. For a long time I have been hoping to build some thing extremely nice that I think will blow minds, and I think that I have finally found my chance. I am building a Kete drum for Irish Moss that is I think by far one of my nicest so far. Here are a couple of pics with the wood just sanded down with 80 grit... it is going to 300 or so for super polish and about 6-8 coats of high gloss lacquer. This thing is going to be class!!!






If you are interested, this is a really unique wood called Padauk. This is just one board so judging by the pics you get a good look at the insane colors that this wood can be... amazing what Jah's Creation can do!
