The making of cajon drum continues - DIY woodworking India 

Hello everyone, welcome to DIY woodworking India.

Please go through my earlier posts - making of cajon drum. I had fixed the laminates in that part. In this part, I will fix the legs and the sitting arrangement. The reason of fixing the legs is to keep the main cajon body just above the floor. If the wooden portion is in touch with the floor, the wood may get damped due to moisture on the floor and the cajon's sound may be affected.

The sitting mat is cut from a yoga mat. You can also do the same or you can even go for foam mat. Any cushion will do in this context.

After laying the mat, the final product looks like below. By the way, I have applied a colour in the slapping surface and the back, just for a good look. I liked it.

If you want to listen to a demo, here is a video.

Thanks for visiting cajon making episode and DIY woodworking India.
