The “rim-shot” corners on Arc Handmade Cajons provide the player with a built in clicker... a great extra tone built right into the cajon. This is a unique, standard feature on all of our cajons - including this & drum.

Timber : wood prepared for use in building and carpentry.
Timbre: the character or quality of a musical sound or voice
I love the process of turning plain, timber boards into an instrument with tone and warmth in the rhythm!

Building cajons is a great way to enjoy the creative process... both musically, and in the workshop working with the timber. There is something so satisfying to being able to build something by hand, and then have it used to create some beautiful music!

Some “before and after planing” pics for some pieces of recycled hardwood yesterday. I love the beautiful timber revealed under the old, worn and dirty exterior on the recycled timber.

One of the things I really enjoy about building my cajons is that I often get to recycle timber into a new, and beautiful purpose! As a locally based builder, it is a privilege to be able to take the time and care to do this. Often it is more work and time, but worth it in the end.

The mitre joint corners on Arc Handmade Cajons are not only beautiful, but strong - strengthened with feature splines that look great and give much needed stability and strength to the joint.
