Eye of Nu – P6

Posted on August 3, 2011 by Kevin Brown

I am extremely happy with the outcome of this djembe! Everything worked together just as I hoped it would. The contrast with the Maple and Bloodwood is beautiful, the resin inlay is almost a perfect match for the bloodwood, and the grey rope really adds to the overall theme. I used a black fabric with […]

Eye of Nu – P5

Posted on July 18, 2011 by Kevin Brown

FINALLY… I finished this beautiful djembe shell.? I’m so happy with the way it came out.? The bloodwood contrasts excellent with the hard maple and the inlay matches the bloodwood really well.? The detail I was able to get with the inlay was really good.? Inlace instructions suggests 1/8″ by 1/8″ min. width and depth.? […]

Eye of Nu – Custom Djembe P4

Posted on June 28, 2011 by Kevin Brown

I’ve made some good progress with this djembe build.? I ordered the Inlace Inlay System from a different company this time (didn’t know what all I needed the first time ordering, so I had all the correct granules and fillers and dye, just no clear resin or red resin)… Turtle Feathers as I wasn’t too […]

Eye of Nu – P3

Posted on June 21, 2011 by Kevin Brown

In taking the section of the base to be engraved I stumbled upon a common problem I have been faced with over the years…a perfect,level glue-up.? Because of the way I cut my staves to conserve wood, I end up with a stave that looks like this… Rather than like this… I’ve just ignored this […]

Eye of Nu ? P2

Posted on June 19, 2011 by Kevin Brown

I finally got some other small stuff out of the way so I can start focusing on the projects I’ve got right now. This custom maple djembe is one of them.? I’m having some trouble tracking down bloodwood which was going to be my accent wood on the base of this djembe drum.? The local […]

Eye of Nu – Custom Maple Djembe

Posted on June 8, 2011 by Kevin Brown

I’m really excited about my newest order.? I’m doing a custom maple djembe with accents in bloodwood and the bands logo laser engraved and filled with a crushed stone inlay to match the bloodwood color. Here is the approved form that I designed up to show the customer what his djembe will look like. I’m […]

Admittedly… my blog archive is pretty weak.  I mean come on, my most recent post was in 2015.  I tell my stories through Instagram these days… with a photo here and there.  I had grand plans of writing about everything I build and sharing with the world.  But I’m just not that guy.  My passion is building drums.  I might update this page, might not.  But for now.. maybe one of these past posts will catch your fancy!

Enjoy!
