    The "fringe" is stiff, I actualy wrapped it with coban so it would dry laying flat.
    The tipper is to fat, it's kind of hard for me to carve round objects by hand. I now have a lathe so future tippers will be machine carved and work/look much better.

    Straight razor was what I used to shave the drum with.

    Edit - The fringe does not effect the sound that I can notice. I do the same with Djembe's and it does not change the sound.

    Well ... I could get that thing ready to shave your face for you, I mean, if you ever wanted to that is, no charge. The first 'hit' is free.
