infographic preliminary research: building taiko drums

In 2003, Stanford Taiko came to Maui and learned from the group I was a part of, Zenshin Daiko, how to construct basic chu-daiko's.  And this, is the manual they created from their experience:

My good friend's father makes taiko, this is his website:

But the taiko community uses a video Stanford made of ZD making drums as the standard for making this type of taiko now.  I have primary resources including my dad and uncle who are the one's who began making the drums this way.  I have also helped in constructing them.
