Yeah, the fade... well I still wouldn't re-wrap 'em. It's not nearly as bad as some I've seen. I have an orphan Ludwig bdp rack tom that is nasty.
You'll have a sweet kit when you're done, and having it be an heirloom is all the better!

Can't wait to see what you did today!
Kind of like a daily soap opera!
Between work and some family obligations I've been forced to take a break for a day or two :( But I can't wait to get busy again!
I just noticed something as I went to check on the bass drums....the 24" is the one with the double tom mount attached...the 22" is a virgin...does that change anything as far as it's possibly being a "Hollywood" configuration? (forgive my ignorance :) )
I am prepping the shells to get them to Precision Drums to have the edges done...I'd like to see about fixing the "bubble" shown in the pics (post #4) - any ideas from anyone????
Thanks for the help!!!!

You have eyes apon you, yes we like this kinda stuff !! Gonna watch this thread as I did the other one with drums just like yours only a little further gone than yours. They came out awsome compared to the rust pile that fist showed up.
For the bubble, you`re gonna have to get glue under the bubble and use thin braces (to bend with the curve) with blocks and clamps but be sure to protect the clamps from marking the wrap. Get all the advise you can first and determine your best course of acton.
looking forward to see how these come out, as with all the readers interested !!

I'll keep watching for more suggestions...but thanks for your idea...I like it...sounds very promising!
No joke...when this is all done I'll certainly be able to say with honesty that I couldn't have done it without the help here from you guys. Nice to know there are still places one can turn for wise, knowledgeable help...just to "do the right thing" with no expectation of any gain. That's a rare thing these days...
Thanks!!!!
now that you say that about the base drum being a 24 and the virgin a 22 i 'm stymied, a little help boys????
