Building a Hardwood Cajon Box Drum with Adjustable Snare//DIY

How I built a Cajon Box Drum from rough lumber for my step-son for Christmas. After searching around, I decided to try and build one myself out of 4/4 rough cut birch and walnut for the top, sides and bottom. For the adjustable snare mechanism, my goal was to come up with an original design which was simple, cheap and effective using the materials I had on hand. I did re-adjust the angle of the snare so that the snare barely touched the front panel (called the tappa). This helped give it more rattle which you can hear in the demo at the end of the video. I'm really happy with the end result looking forward to the music it will make. Please consider hitting the thumbs up and sharing this video! Both would really help towards growing the channel. Let me know what you think of the video in the comments. Thank you for watching!
