Description:
Im a drumer for a band, and about six months ago I bought a wood lathe and some of the tools to go with it. A friend of mine gave me 100 1"x2"x18" sticks of rare wood that he was going to use to make cutting boards but decided not to. That gave me the idea to make one of a kind drum sticks for drumers that were not pro but still out there druming for your entertainment. Ive always wanted my very own signature drum sticks but none of the big names will make them for us. That is my idea make affordable drum sticks that are custom made for each individual drumer. No one else gives the everyday drumer that option. Just need a little help ive already made five sets. They came out wonderfully and work just the same. I gave the friend that gave me the wood the first set,sold three sets for $10 each , and have a set of my own. I know that sticks dont last forever so I had planed that when I could start making more id do a package deal that would bring the price down more. I can make any conceivable style, diameter, length'kid sizes too' , out of anykind of wood. If you call my phone please leave a message I will get right back with you. Thank You, Michael
