Built with Purpose. Crafted with Care.
Every one of these snare drums starts with a piece of carefully chosen, sustainably sourced local wood. I don’t just grab the first board I see.
I take the time to measure each piece for maximum use and minimal waste, making sure I’m getting the best tone while respecting the material. It’s not mass production, it’s personal.
From there, the work continues in the workshop. The stave shells are shaped with precision, and every cut, every joint, is made by hand, no shortcuts.
When it comes to the finish, I use only non-toxic, water-based products, such as hard wax oil and traditional French polish. These finishes bring out the natural beauty of the wood while protecting it, without harsh chemicals, just a clean, safe feel that lasts.
This isn’t just about building drums. It’s about making instruments that sound amazing, look beautiful, and feel good to own and play, both sonically and ethically.
In my workshop, I shape the tube lugs myself, making sure they fit perfectly with the design. The outer rings that hold the entire free-floating system together are also finished right here, by hand, to guarantee rock-solid stability and a clean, professional look.
