bili ka lang ng ordinary hoops tapos dalin mo sa machine shop. meron silang cutter-thingy dun para malagyan ng gate yung hoop.

ako hand drill at clamp lang. binutasan ko lang yung hoop para malusot yung wire para dun sa acrylic snare ko

seamless daw ba yung acrylic shell? kung oo sali ako, kailangan ko rin ng 10x6

If you want a tighter, more crisp, more staccato sound which is on the higher end of the voice range, go for the 3" depth.

If you want additional power and depth, go for the 6.5" depth.


You also have to ask yourself...  In which musical situation/s will you be using this drum?  What style/s of music do you play?  Which snare drum sound do you need? What are your sound preferences?

8" snare yung acrylic ko...if you want tight, crispy and high pitched...this baby is it

sa US ko nabili yung mga snare wires, right now meron pa kong 2 10" snare wires...yung isa ikakabit ko na sa home made shell ko. yung isa naka reserve naman para sa isa pang acrylic 10x6

Manila Acrylic Center sir...

they mold acrylic to any shape you want (astig!) basta may drawings and diagram ka...

bigay mo lang diagram then estimate nila kung magkano.

long term project ko yung magawa ng kit with acrylic shells  from MAC :D

tools needed: soldering iron and lead, packaging tape, ruler at spare snare wire.

- lagyan mo ng packaging tape muna yung snare wire para hindi gumalaw at maging pantay yung pag cut mo



- cut to desired length, 12" kasi yung target size ko so pinutol ko at about 11 and 1/4 inches. may 1/4" pa kasi yun yung part na kailangang i solder dun sa metal piece



by the way, you cant cut snare wires with that itsy bitsy teeny winny red cutter, use gunting yero. hindi nagtagumpay ang pag cut ko nyan at gunting yero din ginamit ko talaga


di ko makita yung ibang pics e pero hanapin ko ulit sila tonight
