Sounds very low tech but apparently it works, and I have drums which have not been touched since manufacture and they still work 46 years on. Of course for you, low tech could be a bonus as it means low cost. Maybe your local educational establishment has a skilled potter who could do a great job for a reasonable price, or just for interest. My mother is a potter, although she hasn't done it professionally since before I was born. She was fascinated when I told her of this. I don't thisnk she could manage this for you, though :-( Philip.
