This Durm is maded the old means. This is a one piece Red Oak Drum it was burned and chip out sanded and seven coats of sealer in and out it has four feathers seal inside for the 4 directions and is covered with Buffalo Raw Hide the size of the drum is 15" tall, 2" thick and 39" large. this is a huge drum and I have had as many as 22 sticks drumming at one time the noise was remarkable. asking $2,000 but will deal. It informed me trhee years to make so I think it is a good rate.
