Thank you, this answered my question quite well!
What kind of hide did you use for this drum?
I was told that elk hide is one of the best hides to use, I was wondering what else might be good.

I am not sure of the type, I was at a local flea market and came across it. It kept telling me to take it home.
Almost any hide can be used, as long as it has the strength to withstand the tightening as it dries. The thinner the hide the higher the tone, the thicker the tone deepens..............billytwohearts
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind about the thickness of the hide.
