I just finished watching the DW video on how they make their new super solid snares.

Check it out!
So.. ..question is, since the DW is a steamed and compressed maple plank and then bent and ends joined with a "scarf" joint, wouldn't a superior design be to make the snare out of one hollowed out log with no scarf joint.
I know there are many custom snare making companies out there. Do any of them make a solid "no joint" snare? As far as I know Craviotto and Longo snares are bent and joined.
And if so, wouldn't that hollowed out log, if steamed and compressed like DW is doing now, be a better design?
