yep. I'm doing it. I will assemble from your purchased goods, finish your wood shells, drill them...............try me. I will work with wood or metal shells. I dont construct shells in any way, i buy the shells where I can and work with them.  I can get metal shells on an inconsistent basis. Try me for your custom work.

yes. I will be taking pictures of all my custom builds as they happen ,and new pics of my previous custom builds. I forgot to add, i also will work with acrylic shells too. 

Next 3 builds: 9x14 Birch in 2 pieces
                      8x14 1.5" thick Birch Stave (this will kill all reference and  G-Maple snares on earth)
                      7x14 Copper

Stay tuned. Evil Smile

not the best pics, but to hold you over for now:

8x13 aluminum. This snare is ferocious.

8x13 Black Walnut. This snare is a wolf in sheeps clothing.

7x13 Clear Acrylic. Sounds way better than you think. (in the interest of detail, I changed the lug screws from gold to black, so they dont stand out as much)

To me, very badass/cosmetically pleasing. I love the grain and the knot. So much character. Swamp Hickory. 6.5x14. Maple re-rings. single ply steam bent. Gonna be sweet.

Should be fine. I am gonna work around it. As long as i dont fuck with the knot, it should remain in good order. I think thre shewll has tons of character and I hope it sounds great when it is done as well!
