Bodhran Banjo?

Anyone ever make a banjo out of a bodhran? These look promising:

I've thought of it. Looks like you would have to remove the cross pieces and do some cutting on the rim. You would probably get more of a cello banjo effect like the cello banjo from Gold Tone. A little too bassy for me.

It might make a nice tambo.
