I decided to build one of the American Banjo Kits from Carver Banjos. This is the fourth video in a series that will cover all the steps involved in building the banjo. During this episode, I skin the drum. The kit includes a piece of goat skin and variety of tacks.

Granted I watched Brian Carver's "how to skin a drum" video 3 or 4 times before attempting this but... it was easier than I thought it would be.
Interesting process, Kale! You took the “intimidation” right out of it!!! Reminds me of making a silk screen printing frame out of my mother’s old sheer curtains (no rules goes back a ways for me!)
Thanks AGP and t-belly. Getting close!
lol. You just built an Irish Bodhran drum!
Nice work so far Kale. Keep it going!
Informative Vid Poorness, "Thanks for Posting", have done 7 Skin Head builds, 2 Goat Skin Builds, and as you would expect in the "Land Down Under", 5 Kangaroo Skin Builds :-)
Thanks fellas. I think it's gonna come out really nice.
She is coming along !
Great demo Kale. I love skinning banjos. It’s natural magic.
