Mounting the Ksink Ksink on your drum

  For drums that have an exposed loop ring, the stave or stick of the ksink ksink can be slipped between the loops. 

Tip:
  If you find your Ksink Ksink loose, or moving around, curl the stave slightly so the bottom end puts a small amount of pressure on the drum, as this will keep your Ksink Ksink in place.

Some Djembe's have a skin wrap, or fur wrap as shown in the image on the right.

In this case a small cut out needs to be made through the skin to allow the stave to slide behind the loops on the upper ring. This can be a delicate process, so if you are unsure, please ask someone who is familiar with skinning a drum.

---

As an alternative to modifying the skin, or using the loops in the upper ring, an elastic band can be used to hold your Ksink Ksink in place.

---

And, as a final option, for anyone who has a decorative rope wrap on their drum, simple slip the stave of the Ksink Ksink beneath the rope wrap, as shown in this image.

Special Note:
   When reheading or replacing the skin on your drum, be sure to set the width of the loops to accept the stave of your Ksink Ksink! 
If you are having a professional replace the skin, ask them to set the width so your ksink ksink has an easy fit.
