Drum

It was a lovely day so we worked on putting the rawhide heads on some gourd drums. I got my first drum head cut out and punched tiny holes for the lacing. That's as far as I got because I'm still having trouble with my hands. But I got to watch guy soak a drum head and apply it to a drum. It looks like a tortilla only stronger. While it's wet you get it as tight as possible. He got two or three drums done today. Maybe I can work on mine tomorrow.
