You don't have to get the walls real thin to get a nice sound. I saw one of these drums at the museum and was surprised how thick the walls were. Good luck! Post pictures of your progress. How does that walnut resonate? TeaKEY stopped by this afternoon and we had a nice visit. It was nice to meet a fellow Michigander into the tiki thing. His Benzart mug is great, he nailed it very well. It shows much better in person than the photos.
