		<description><![CDATA[A drum rests suspended from the ceiling of my house, and each day I hear a resonant, deep, &#8220;pop&#8221; as the buffalo hide dries and the rawhide tightens. Each day I look over this beautiful creation, and remember the group effort that made this drum what it is today. The tone is deep, with each [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, you caught me smack dab in the middle of a really bad pun.  It&#8217;s true, you just can&#8217;t hide a buffalo, but you can use a buffalo hide in drum making.   In fact, we had four buffalo half hides to work with.

		<description><![CDATA[Preparing hides for drum making takes muscle, and a lot of planning.  Kaye states, &#8220;There can be variance in the thickness of the hide, and this will effect how much the hide will stretch when you build your drum.  I&#8217;ve build many drums, and know how to work with the hide, and how to talk [...]]]></description>
