Hi fellow drum enthusiast. My name is Bud Brownell and as long as I can remember I have had a love of music and a love of woodworking. I built my first stave shell snare drum in 1997.

I have decided to make a membership site for the video series. When you pay for the video series you will receive a user name and password. You can access the video series at any time of day with this information.

I have had such a great response to my book on stave shell drum building it has inspired me to do a nine part instructional video series on stave shell drum building. If you are a drum builder or would like to become a drum builder or just want to build yourself a drum you will find this video series will increase your knowledge on drum building and help you to be a successful drum builder.

There is no better way to learn than by watching someone do what you want to learn about. This video series is packed full of useful information on drum building. The video covers all aspects of stave shell drum building as done by B.C.W. Solid Wood Drums.

I have to tell you it was an exciting project making this video series. Now you can easily learn the techniques that took me years to perfect. I believe in sharing my knowledge with others and also that this is the best way to pass on this knowledge.

I have to tell you if I had found this information when I was starting out building drums I would have bought it in a second and it would have put me years ahead of where I was then. There is no substitute for experience and experience is what you will get from watching this video series.
