Hello !!
Whopbamboom :
Left to right : My first wood conga, my last, my first prototype in fiberglass and the Pink, the second I have done.
For a business, I think That produce good drums is one matter, but sell enought to survive is another story. Of course, make a drum business is more for the passion, not for the money. But (to my mind...) passion job without money can waste passion.
Make a craftsman business in France is sooooo costly. I think that's why all the congas maker stopped : Delaporte, Baak, ASBA...
I think that for a French drum business, I have to build and sell at least 8-10 drums per month....
But why not begin that in second job ???....
I will keep you in touch,
Galou.
