How to determine whether to put jingles or nuts and bolts? Tama Goh put small nails for his.

If I don't sell my PST5 ride by end next month, I'll shall pay Fuman a visit!

 

[jeepers]

jingles way more sizzly! most ppl use nuts&bolts and nails i think.

saw on cymbalholic.

talking about cymbalholic, fuman! you should really post your stuff there man. just post the pictures of your collection and you'll automatically be promoted to "Full-Blown Cymbalholic" :twisted:

 

[drum_hobbyist]

[marcdadrummer]

Way to go drum_hobbyist! I'm willing to be your guinea pig to test out your innovations.

I'm sure most of here would volunteer that too

No one can let anyone in except for the owners.

Drop them a message. I believe there's a waiting list, and that they add members as they delete inactive accounts.

to the DIY pros out there,

is it possible to cut a 16"x16" floor tom up into a 16"x5"? heh i'm planning on getting an RT so i thought it'd be cool if i had a 16" tom for the RT. :twisted: if it's possible, would i be the first person on the planet to own an RT with a 16" tom?

and check this out! friiiiiickin' insane!

[spinninsticks]

Heh for a moment I thought you're gonna make a huge-ass snare drum.

But for cutting up the toms you probably need proper tools and equipment to do a good job, where are you gonna get that ?

 

[jeepers]

hahha i might if i do decide to go ahead with this tom thing. hmmm would a regular secondary school DnT workship suffice?

 

[drum_hobbyist]

Can borrow a Black & Decker electric hand saw and you will get the job done. If you need assistance, i can help.
