Here is a picture of my latest project, I am really proud of this one I made a 98 on it. I made my shop teacher real proud on this one. How I built it use two 2×4’s for the stand and 2×4’s for the feet, I am 3/4’’ plywood for the top, and then I cover the 2×4 stand with 1/4’’ brich plywood, I made my own molding with the help of my teacher. I left it natural.

Very nice! I’m sure the school is proud of you. And an excellent use of common lumber as well…

If that’s your drums, you’ve got it made because woodworking drummers are special people. If not, I can see by your talents you will be whatever you want to be in woodworking. Keep up the good work.

Nice Job!

As the worlds worst photographer, I suggest a photography class, if you get the chance in school. Many times, you’ll need to represent your work as a photo, and I sure wish I had taken one!

For the life of me, even with great equipment, I cannot get a good photo of my work.

I missed this first time around but it came up in the shuffle. I think those feet are inspired.
I also missed the drums until I read through the comments. Do you know anything about tongue drums? Lumberjock Greg Wurst posted a box with a drum top here,

Click for details

and here is a cool link to a downloadable plan. I’m going to have to try one myself, but I’m no percussionist.

I have heard a few things about tongue drums but I never built one.
