Does anyone know where I can buy a 10" tambourine hoop? Or maybe a 10" head for the tam?

I need it to put a new skin on a Vintage Tunable tambourine.

Yes - thanks - I saw that one. They don't ship online to Canada - I would have to phone them.

My other alternative is to buy a cheap secondhand tunable tam, soak the skin off it to get the ring. That way I can put (tuck) my own goat skin on my Greeeen Tambourine!

Before I started looking I never thought it would be so hard to find a head. I thought there would be a "Tambourine Hoop Factory" somewhere.

By the time I get that $28 head to Canada it will cost me at least double that or much more (shipping, brokerage fees, duty if not made in North America etc., etc.,) So I will look around a bit more.

Thanks for sharing
