Make Your Own Bodhrán - D.I.Y. Bodhrán Kit  
Can there be anything more satisfying than crafting your own instrument?
It's a creative process that can only bring increased playing satisfaction knowing that you've made it with your own two hands.
We want you to enjoy that process that we've been very lucky to be a part of for so long so we've put together everything you need to make your very own bodhrán.
Presenting the McNeela bodhrán making kit ...
The pack includes:
1 x 16" (depth approx. 4") plywood rim - unstained and unvarnished.
Cross bar
1 x 20" top quality goatskin.
1 x beater.
Webbing 56" long.
12 studs.
Elastic band.
Written Instruction Sheet.
You can see detailed video instructions with Paraic himself by clicking here
We also highly recommend adding to cart our new bodhrán cream, DrumDiddly, as a luxurious finishing touch for the goatskin. This cream contains beeswax and lanolin and guarantees to deepen the bass tone on the bodhrán and extend the life of the skin.

This was a great way to add to my drum collection on a budget. A beautiful addition. Thank you!

I’m actually using this as the frame for a large tack-head banjo project, and its going well so far. Particularly pleased with how the goat’s skin has tightened up nicely after following the instructions.

Very nice and easy to do. A bit of standing. You just need white glue. Good thick skin. Sounds great when taped.

I loved building it. I have done a fair amount of wood projects so building it was not a problem but it was enough of a different kind of challenge to still be fun. It turned out way nicer than I expected. Now I just need to learn to actually play, which is coming along faster than I expected.

Excellent product. This is going to be the basis of a customised heirloom instrument for one of my sons. Delivery is excellent. Would recommend to anyone wanting to build a quality instrument.
