True, each to his own skill, I have a friend Steve who makes Flutes and another friend Jim Firewolf who makes Drums.. The rattles we were shown how to make but at the workshop I just couldn't fit everything in the time allowed..
The Drum workshop had a batch of skins come over from USa but we had problems with them in that they didn't dry our evenly and many drums split..
So the last batch we used were the ones I had and were sourced in the uk..
Someone we knew was lucky enough to buy a Buffalo drum on Ebay..for £45 .. I saw it, it was 40 inches across and sounded surreal.. I can never find a bargain like that..
