    Default Need someone near MALVERN who can cut straight

    G'day - my name is alex.

    I've recently acquired a drum which measures 18 inches in diameter and 16 inches in depth. The drum is constructed of 3 thin plies of maple, poplar and maple. (it looks much like this drum:

    i'm looking for someone to cut 4 inches off the depth of the drum, to make it 12 inches in depth.

    here's an example on youtube what what i'm hoping to have done:

    Make up rollers as in the video and then use a table saw.

    Find some one with a big band saw.

    Or Mark a line around the drum and then slowly cut with a power saw (not circular).

    Not sure if my hands are steady enough to do it for you.
