Q & A
Question: How much weight can this hold?
- asked on May 20, 2024

Answer: They don't publish a weight limit, but it is designed as a project for kids. It's 1/4 Baltic Birch plywood, so it should be pretty sturdy if assembled correctly. As it's a do-it yourself project, I would be careful with higher weight loads.

Comes with the wood, screws, feet and snare. Snare setup is very basic- i would recommend to add a dowel that pivots to turn snare off and on. Wood is well cut. You will need straps, clamps, drill, wood glue, sander, paint or stain.
The right wood is hard to find so this is a great deal and goes together easily with the tools listed. Delivery was not great, snare is basic, but it is a great price and sounds good.
