Here's something I've retweeted, and I think linked on FB, but keep forgetting to post on LJ/DW/IJ/etc.: Emory's kickstarter for producing wee "finger doumbeks" -- to produce the larger models, he needs a bigger 3D printer.
They look too small too really make useful sounds, but watch -- listen to -- the video on that Kickstarter page, especially, when Carmine Guida is playing one; they actually sound pretty cool! Cute, portable, playable ... and you can use them as drinking vessels (the larger sizes will be available with or without handles, so you can use one as a "stein-bek"). You want one of these hanging off your belt at Pennsic, n'est-ce pas?
There's only about a week and a half left in the funding period for this project at Kickstarter, and still quite a way to go, so check it out. If nothing else, some of the drumming in the video is nice (well, except for my bit -- I thought I was doing okay until I heard what better drummers had done with it).
The latest news is that he's started trying two-colour drums, with a white drumhead on a red shell.
These tiny drums are fun. Not as loud as a full-size doumbek, of course, but small enough to keep one with you all the time so you're never caught without a drum. Check it out.
