Thanks Andrew,
I’m glad to hear that these have been helpful for you. There are more videos coming. I’m currently saving up for a new camera, so as soon as that is in my hands I will be cranking out a bearing edge video. – Dustin

Hey, I just wanted to thank you. As you said, there is not alot of drum building videos on the internet. The best I have found was this guy Smiley. Very High quality craftsmanship on his stave snares. Thank you for posting this site, and as a new drum builder, I hope more videos go up. – Andrew

Hey John,
I will be doing an episode on bearing edges and snare beds in the future. At the moment I need more footage and need a new camera. So as soon as I save the cash there will be a new video.

This is the best drum-building website on the planet (or any planet).
