So cool Kalani! Thanks so much. I’m making some to give to kids when I play my percussions... to encourage them to play. I liked the humor in the end. Lol

I have made several shakers from cigar tubes. They are different sizes and have various amounts of lead shot inside. You can use small sea shells also and add the innerds until you get get the sound you want. Then put some super glue in the cap and screw it back on. With the different sizes/sounds you can use them individually or hold two together for a more robust sound. They look kind of authentic too in Cuban cigar tubes 👍

You could 1st spray the shaker with gray primer. Then, the colored paint will have something to bond to and save the drudgery of sanding.

Great tutorial, easy and fun to put into practice! For one of my newly built shakers, I used red lentils instead of rice, it gives a slightly darker, heavier sound.

I'm not an expert but I think in Brazil they use those huge shakers to play in Batucadas (those big percussion bands that perform on carnival parades). I guess the shakers need to be big in order to sound louder.

I wonder that a lot too. But at my church, I play the shaker in the band, I just listen to the song and feel the beat, I start moving the shaker to the beat, if it’s too slow of a tempo, and too hard to maintain a rhythm, I sit that song out. But I just tend to listen and feel the beat. It takes practice.

This is so true I have made three sets of these so far and I’m working on the fourth set. I have two that I use and I made one for a Hispanic pastor that comes to our church every now and then to fill in playing the drums. I showed him my shaker, and he said oh that’s really cool, Where did you get it? And I said I made it, and he said no way! And he said would you make me one? And I said I would be honored! So I made him one and I decorated it and gave it to him on Easter Sunday and then he asked me if I would make him another one, but he wanted specific colors, so I am working on the second one for him as we speak. He was so excited to get the first one, and mine I make the two and tie them together like he shows in the video because they’re louder and I play the shaker in my church band.
