Your Cajon (beat box drum) will be handmade organically. They have never seen the inside of a factory and each one is completely unique with their own features and flaws.
We love to make cajones from recycled materials, turning pre-loved items into beautiful instruments. We have even made cajones using plywood from fairy penguin hatching boxes!

Our cajones are designed to be part of your furniture. They do not have branding or artwork. Rather than storing the cajones when not being played, our sturdy and safe designs make them also functional as stools, foot-rests or side-tables. Your cajon is musical furniture!
Every living room should have a cajon!
“I can’t believe that music shops do not stock these awesome sounding beat boxes around Sydney.”
We are authentic builders handcrafting musical drums.
This is the next craze for simplistic drumming on the move or travelling.
Why you might need a cajon
- Cajones replace a full drum kit and are ideal for jam sessions, busking and acoustic performances.
- Tapping beats is therapeutic! Keep your cajon handy for when the need arises.
- Rebirth an old, sentimental piece of furniture into something beautiful, useful and compact.
- They are a great gift for a big occasion! For example, a black cajon signed in gold and silver pens with well-wishes from guests at a 21st birthday or a wedding is an amazing keepsake!
