Faster Hands & Feet (in 10 days)

Have you ever seen a grown man play an abacus like a shaker? Neither had we…but we’re glad we’ve seen it now.
David Raouf (aka rdavidr on KZfaq) wants to challenge you to create some unusual and awesome sounds using only items you found at a thrift store.
You can buy whatever you want at a music store, but at the end of the day, a shaker is a shaker and a tambourine is a tambourine. At a thrift store, you can find knick knacks or unconventional ‘non instruments’ to become percussive sound sources. Whether you mount something to a stand as its own piece or you add it to a cymbal or tom to give it some new flair, you never know what kind of new sounds might inspire your playing.
David recommends looking for random metal objects (like dog bowls, pot lids, or even a door handle) or wood pieces (like cutting boards, an abacus, or a random wooden alligator), but you can choose whatever you want. If it doesn’t already have a hole in it, make sure you have a drill with a 1 inch bit handy.
