Drums have evolved slowly throughout the ages and one change that can
clearly be seen is the different method of tensioning the skins between
medieval and Renaissance drums.
The medieval drum is rope tensioned directly onto thick goat skin heads
and has a single snare on the beaten head, whilst the Renaissance drum
applies the rope tensioning through counter hoops which spread the forces
enabling the use of thinner calf skin heads. The easier vibration of the
thinner heads allows a triple snare to be used on the non-beaten head.

All of them have a laminated birch shell with traditional skin heads.
A brass belt hook sets the correct playing position for the drum.
Our Medieval Long Drum is 34cm diameter x 50cm long. The heads are
goat skins tensioned by a system of hempen cord and sliding leather buffs. A
single gut snare is fitted to the beaten head.
Our Medieval Side Drum is 34cm diameter x 34cm long. The heads are
goat skins tensioned by a system of hempen cord and sliding leather buffs. A
single gut snare is fitted to the beaten head.

Timbrel Kit
The same range of Drums are offered in kit form for home assembly.
The price includes the license to build one
instrument for private use.
No previous experience of instrument making is required to build our drum
kits.
A top quality 3mm laminated birch shell is supplied ready to assemble
around pre-bent beech hoops using a set of 40 special clamps.
An instruction manual and photosheet take the builder 'step by step'
through each stage of construction.
Hemp cord, leather buffs, gut snares, a pair of traditional style
drumsticks are all included in these versatile kits.
Medieval Drum Kits: The diameter of the drum is fixed but the
builder determines the final depth of the drum up to 50cm and hence whether
it is a side drum or a long drum.
Renaissance Drum Kits: Two solid beech counterhoops are supplied
bent ready for final fitting. The diameter of the drum is fixed but the
builder determines the final depth of the drum and hence whether it is a
side drum or a long drum.
All the kits Include free access to our customer
'Helpline' should you need any advice on construction, setting-up or
playing. |
