Snare Drum

Another Garage-Band instrument! Add pennies to your favorite metal can - size anywhere from coffee-can to wash-bin - and make 'em zing.

Step 1: Parts Layout

1 Can

some pennies (50 - 500 depending on can size)

screwdrivers or other improvised drum sticks

ear plugs?

Step 2: Put the Snare in Your Snare Drum

Add the roll of pennies to the top of the tin can

Step 3: Play Drum

yup, it's that easy. Add/subtract pennies to find your sound. Pennies will bounce (that's how the sound is made!) and occasionally fall out. So, everytime you play you might lose a few cents. This might be a good bargaining point when trying to get a paying gig around town.
