    Hi all,
    Yesterday my Minstrel Banjo kit arrived! Now I need to put it together…The FAQ states there are assembly instruction videos for each banjo type, however, I only find “how to tack a skin to a banjo rim” on the link https://carverbanjos.com/product/minstrel-banjo-kit-tackhead/ .
    What about the additional steps. What is the best complete assembly video?

    Thanks for your answer,

    Kind regards

    Thanks for joining the forum!
    The 3 assembly videos on the minstrel kit page should get you going. The third video is a complete assembly video made by a customer.

    Here is an older video, watch this and then finish the process by watching the “tacking a skin” video.

    Heres another customer assembly video for a kit similar in construction.

    Are you only seeing one video on the minstrel kit page? I’m wondering if YouTube is blocking some because you are in another country?
    This is how the page should look: see attachment

    Hi,
    I do see 3 videos on the minstrel banjo kit page,
    The first and second focus on a specific step.

    How to tack a Skin to a Banjo Rim
    Adjusting dowel and action on Banjo kits
    Assembling and playing the minstrel banjo kit (Jay Cobalt)

    Indeed, I was looking for a video like the “DIY minstrel banjo kit assembly”. Thanks!
    Kind regards,
    Maurits
