Default The Drum

This is how far the drum has come so far. I tried to post some pictures I posted in a previous thread so you could get an idea of what the wood was before but Mr. Computer wouldn't let me. So, if you want to see some pictures even before this, a week or so ago you can check out my "How to Hollow" post on General, there is also a picture of what I want it to look like when it is finished.

I started at 18 inches across, I know you can' t see the tape measure but it is now about 15 inches, the goal is 13 inches.

I started at 38 inches long, I am now at 24, where it will stay

This reads 10 & 1/2 inches deep, where it will stay with some cleaning up insode the bowl of the drum

I will continue to take off the outside, tappering from halfway down to the bottom.
