Making Drum Sticks on a Lathe - DIY Woodturning Project  @SteveCarmichael
Uploaded March 2014 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago
In this video, I make a Drum Stick on the lathe from a solid piece of Cherry. I'm new to woodturning, so this seemed like a logical step up from making pens. Toward the end of the video, I use the sticks to play several drum licks that are similar to some you may recognize, so stick around!

Scroll to the bottom of this description to see the list of drum licks!
