Howdy - In the spirit of turning something bad into something good... I present the following:
Two weeks ago I dropped a hammer near my 16"x16" Camco floor tom and the claw of the hammer left an 8" long scrape on the wrap. Violin CryBaby
The drum needed to be re-wrapped. There was no 'fixing' the scrape. It went through the clear-coat and damaged the wrap itself. That's when lightning struck my poor addled brain!
Last year, my buddy, Joeyboom had gifted me three sheets of a discontinued Abalone' wrap. The three sheets had been rolled and the edges were curled. When I got them home, I pressed them under some heavy particle boards and forgot about them. I even tried to use them as 'trade bait' about six months ago. I went downstairs, pulled them out, and they were perfectly flat! Good as new. Only took a year under 500 lbs. of pressure. lol
Bottom line: I re-wrapped the entire Camco kit in the Abalone'! (see photos)
It is now a truly one-of-a-kind kit! I love my Camco's. Now they look as special as I feel about them. Tell me what you think of my little Geo. Way/Oaklawn Camco orphan kit. Job took two weeks.
