Make A Snare Drum Over Completely From Scratch

A snare drum, which made its first appearance as a tabor in the Dark Ages, includes a distinctive sound which makes you visualize armies marching to war. From a tabor, its size gradually increased until it emerged in its present form in the 1600s. With the right tools and a little perseverance, one can make a snare drum from scratch.

 

Materials for this endeavor are: the Drum Shell, wood putty, putty knife or scrap wood, sandpaper and sandpaper block, foam (optional), 220- or 320-grit sandpaper (may be used wet), palm sander (optional), scrubbing pad, water-based dye, foam paint brush, air compressor, spray gun, polyurethane or lacquer, 600- and 2,000-grit sandpaper, buffing bonnet, rubbing compound, masking tape, pencil, two snare drum heads, combination square, ruler, 1/8th inch drill bit (brad tipped), cordless drill, drill bit identical size since the mounting stud, file, carnauba wax, and soft cloth.

 

First step is to prepare the drum shell. Order one from drum stores. The usual dimensions of a snare drum will be 5 inches high by 14 to 16 inches in diameter. Scrutinize it carefully for gaps, which can be filled with wood putty. Any excess will be sanded and smoothed away. Place it on top of your foam while sanding to avoid scratching. You may then use the 220-grit, 320-grit, or the palm sander to make the outside of the drum smooth and blemish-free. Ensure that there won’t be any scratches. Finish it off by buffing the drum shell with a non-metal scouring pad until it is glossy.

 

Next, dye the shell with all the foam brush. Gently work the dye into the wood, applying three to five coats but allow it to dry first in between coats for a better finish. Once it is completely dry, buff any roughness left behind until you feel no more rough spots. Use the air compressor to get rid of the scrubbed dye and blow off the inside as well.

 

Finish this off by applying either polyurethane or lacquer finish using the spray gun. Let it dry for 30 minutes then repeat the process three times. Leave it overnight then sand any roughness with all the 320-grit sandpaper. Do this gently to avoid scraping off any finish. Then, use the 600-grit sandpaper to balance out the finish. Keep the sandpaper moist while achieving this, and adding liquid or dishwashing soap within the water would help in making the lighter and darker patches of finish look exactly the same color. Add a couple more coats of finish or as desired. Leave it overnight and repeat the last sanding process. Lastly, apply rubbing compound using a buffing bonnet made of lamb’s wool.

 

Prepare the snare drum for the drilling. Place the Drum Head and hoop on one end of your shell and with all the masking tape and pencil, mark off the holes of your hoop. Do the same on the other end. Once all the holes are accounted for, use the one-eighth-inch drill bit to bore the pilot holes on the markings. Then make these holes bigger using the drill bit that is precisely the same since the mounting studs. If the hole just isn't large enough, make it larger using a file.

 

Sand all of the edges using the 600-grit then the 2000-grit sandpaper. Apply rubbing compound to polish the edges while using buffing bonnet, then the carnauba wax to give it a glossy polish. Leave it for half an hour then install the mounting studs, taking care not to screw them in too tight as this can strip the threads. Install the lugs and slip on the first of the two heads, referred to as resonant head. Tune this while using keys and hit it with the Drum Sticks. Repeat the procedure until the desired sound is reached. Then slip on the batter head on the foot of the drum. Tighten and test it at the same time.

 

Voila! You now have a snare drum that you can proudly call Your Own personal.
