Idea for next project. Make a mold for a snare shell, then melt down aluminum cans to make an aluminum snare. Could be cool.

[@MrJoshloper]

Steven Pryor that’s the best!

[@brandonpryormusic]

Gotta make it shallow so it really pops..........

[@abrahamnaula]

Lol that’d be funny

[@austincox1709]

no, cast obsidian

[@andrewmurphy5310]

Aren't drums too thin too cast?

[@HHGdrums]

Awesome job man!!! You did a great job building it out!

[@nram3930]

That is actually a really sweet looking snare. I like my snares shorter (in height). Wish I could have bought a whole drumset from you but I *just* bought a Yamaha Stage Custom (birch 22") and tuning it is driving me nuts (it's my first drumset, though I've been drumming since I was 3, and I have NO idea what to do ._.). I guess I'll build my own at some point, always wanted to make cymbals anyway :D Also here's a little idea I had. What if you had non-cylinder shells? Maybe if you had shells with spikes on the inside you could do a lot of funky things with resonance as more of the low tones will be captured by the shell. Maybe it brings out the lower end? Maybe add some holes (like ocarinas) that, when air flows through them, they create a whistle type of thing? Just wanted to know if anyone tried or thought about any of these. Haven't copyrighted these yet so make them while you still can, or just copyright them yourselves that's fine too. I'll go cry in a corner now.

[@MM-MISTER-M]

Very nice.

[@JJ_Squillario]

@@nram3930 that sounds like a sick idea. Go for it when you can.

[@Sundaydrumday]

If your lookin for drummers to push ur product, I'm new but if u check my videos out maybe u will see potential, maybe not? But would love to represent someone like u, who's comin up...either way ur drums are absolutely gorgeous and they sound so damn good!!!

[@Officialshayne]

I think some dark brown wooden hoops would look amazing!

[@jacktoddy9783]

I love the metallic hollow sound you get when the snare is full-on - at the highest tension. That sound I find rare and brings a wonderful dynamic to simple drum patterns/expression. Great build, congratulations.

[@masterarbi]

FINALLY ALL MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN HEARD, GOD EXIST MY DUDES!!!! THE BEARDED GUY FINALLY FINISHED THE HHG SHELL!!!!!!!

[@josueproequipos]

this snare is completly sick I love it, amazing job David

[@Zfitz1128]

Never clicked a notification so fast

[@CharlieLord]

Ahhh the P77... the grim reaper of a drum's character 😭😭

[@rdavidr]

yes... I learned that the hard way lol

[@CharlieLord]

rdavidr yeah I just find anything with an edge ring is always too much on a snare...

[@TheDrummaboy78]

Are you guys referring to the dryness of the drum?

[@LanceCampeau]

Looks slick!

[@yusukeuzumaki6356]

LanceCampeau i love your channel so much

[@scottgarvey7011]

LanceCampea

[@martijndenhartog]

You should try making a super High tension snare drum , 20 luggs on a piccolo snare with a kevlar head

[@zedpwner]

i dont think they make 20 lug rims. but imagine a 12 lug top and a 4 lug bottom

[@martijndenhartog]

Well yeah maybe i am overeacting with 20, but to see the. Max, would be amazing

[@jesuslover9199]

Yesssss!!! It turned out awesome.

[@Riddim4]

THAT is the stave build. Less mass on the shell allows lower tuning, if desired. This idea originated with Chris Brady’s baritone snare drums. Rhett Hendrix took it further with his archetype series, which have the thick rings and scooped out interiors yours have.

[@TheDrummaboy78]

So sick! I really enjoy your videos RDavidR!

[@magrildz]

Absolutely GORGEOUS. Awesome work, man!

[@gavin_bigred]

That thick shell makes this sound so fucking GOOD

[@BADD400]

Great sounding snare. Awesome build.

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

Holy smokes those die cast hoops are a world of difference.

[@evcricket]

I really like the sound of this. Looks gorgeous too

[@filsolano5465]

You must be very proud of this build. I know I would be. The stamp on that badge just made it even more priceless. Bravo!!!

[@MelancholicSaiko]

a worthy test play for a snare as great as this.

[@1toonhead]

That snare sounds as good as it looks. Bloody Awesome.

[@jfoz7602]

That snare is a work of art 👌

[@rddsknk89]

That’s just about the coolest looking snare i’ve ever seen. With the tube lugs it looks a lot like a marching snare

[@micahwinters7021]

[@theavenger3363]

Fabulous job 👍👍👍

[@maprow]

Really nice job. I did a similar build a few years ago using a Keller shell and all Trick hardware. Very satisfying and rewarding to play on a drum that you've personally invested so much time into.

[@rdavidr]

[@hauntedhose]

Major impressive🤗

[@WhirlwindDrums]

This is so crazy awesome

[@kenfaulkner2695]

About damn time

[@felixthemonkey7928]

this looks really cool. Someone should sell some like this one. an entire drum set must look awsome.

[@nicholasregister7396]

Give it some love with those triple flange and a 2 ply coated batter. I’m always curious to hear a drum singing. Great job on this man, really inspiring.

[@JazzDunn1]

I love you for this

[@elpoder08]

Freakin' awesome!

[@Thomlistentoslayer]

Welcome back😎

[@JP-tr6yu]

I think we are DEFINITELY getting an endorsement announcement soon. All he has played lately is his Yamaha Kit and Meinl cymbals. You can clearly see his Tama kit dumped on a shelf in this closet.

[@drumtothebeat]

[@White-sl3jf]

That thing is stunning! you vids are great;)

[@sonnycapolupo]

Great video, music was good too 👌

[@spencermay5029]

Great job dude

[@terrydonegan1622]

Great drum

[@TheRimshotDrummer]

Dude! I would have so many drum sets if I had all of that equipment. LOL You do an amazing job David. Keep it up. I may have to get you to build me a custom snare. Love the channel.
