"Yeah. So how are we gonna fasten it to the crate?" One slash sufficed.

Nails? There should be plenty of them and a hammer kicking about in here if you want me to go and have a look...

"Right... Please do. I really don't know the layout."

Right.
**Getting up once more, Amathyst searched the back rooms for a hammer and plenty of nails... It took her about an hour to do so, but she found everything. Returning, she passed then pot and hammer over to Archon.**
Here you go.

"Wow. That took a while. Where'd you go?" Archon gladly accepted the nails and hammer, so he could get working on making this makeshift drum.

Plenty of dust rooms... I had to track down a pot and plenty of nails first... The hammer was easy though.

"...Why the pot?" Archon thought they were using a crate. Or something.

To keep the nails in so didn't drop them... I mean, I wouldn't really want to drop about four dozen nails would I?

"Oh... Good point. Stupid me." Archon lined up the parchment with the edge of the crate, put a nail against it, and whacked it with a hammer. He cursed as the hammer punched right through the wood. "This wood is rotten. No good."

Hmmmm... Which complicares matters to no ends I guess... Unless... I'll be right back...
**Amathyst had remembered seeing several large pots an Urns while looking for the nails. Thankfully, most of them were wooden too. Bringing several of various sizes back, she sat them down infornt of Archon.**
These might work.

"Hmm..." Archon examined one of the larger ones. "The parchment sheet I cut fits very large on this."

You can always cut multiple drum skins out of the large sheet you cut, saves on wasting the parchment I guess.

"Hmm... Let's try this." Archon cut a large circle, just more than enough to cover the urn, then made about a dozen inch-deep cuts from the diameter in. When he put it on top of the urn, the tabs he had cut could fold down, overlapping over one another to angle in. Then the hammering ensued.

Sounds... Effective?
**Shaking her head slightly, Amathyst waited paitinetly for Archon to finish what he was doing.**

"I'm used to stuff like this," Archon muttered as he continued nailing. Progress was excellent. This wood was very absorbent to the shock of the hammer and nail.
