James will recognize my avatar. A long time ago I got on a mailing list from a guy in OZ. This is his drum site: http://percussionclinic.com/ Check out what he just sent out: http://www.makeamarimba.com/ He's claiming you can make a marimba for about $500 US dollars. On first glance, this makes me want to get into mallets! Will be curious to see what the feedback here is! - Jerry Post Extras:       James Walker Tiger Talk Pro Reged: Mar 18 2002 Posts: 1062 Loc: Connecticut Re: Make A Marimba [Re: bear45]       #41172 - Sat Dec 15 2007 01:20 AM (4.245.164.25) Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   Hi, Jerry - good to see you in this corner of town! :) Thanks for the link!
