African Mahogany Djembe with rubber foot and rope wrap on the bowl. This one is shipping off to Norway!

Finally made the riser blocks I should have made the first go around! These give me the ability to turn a 24" drum (over the banjo) on a lathe that was made for 16" max. I Designed these with 3/8 metal plates laser cut by @sendcutsend and they were able to hold a tolerance of .003 from what I designed. I just got them welded and set up... smooth as butter and alignment is spot on! My projects don't always go smooth, but this one has been on the back of my mind for years. Paired with my custom tool rest that allows multiple positions for turning and the big steady rest I finished in Dec., I finally have a perfect solution at the right price, and even got to throw my logo on it! Now back to drums and sawdust! #jetlathe #jettools #woodturning #woodworking #woodwork #diy #custommade #handcrafted #handmade #sendcutsend #lathe

Almost ready to glue up this ashiko shell. These Figured Walnut slats look so good! Excited to get this drum polished!

Walnut wood dunun set. Walnut paired with thick hides gives these drums a very earthy, warm melody.

Purple heart wood sangban recently finished. Love these drums using this wood. So dense the sound is always big and bright!
