"Thanks UJ", Yep!, the Drum Heads are definitely worth a try, also thought about using a cut down Birch Ply/Lambskin Tambourine, which are as cheap as chips on Ebay etc., in retrospect I should have Fretted this one, but did purchase 2 of these $5 Drum Heads, so will more than likely do a future 3 String Fretted Banjer using either the other Drum Head or the Tambourine mentioned  :-D

Wow!  AGP.  that is wonderful.   I looked at banjo kits that had a similar, but not as nice look.   The dove is very nice.  Glad it has big sound for you.  I may keep an eye out for a drum head.

I ended up with a paint lid banjo that plays and sounds nice.  I am messing with it a little trying to learn claw hammer style.  I think I lack the hand speed, coordination and minty fresh breath needed to achieve that style.  but it strums purty good.
