Got the 12-inch tom Purdie gifted me done , but waiting on a badge.
This was a single ride affair for a bit, but Purdie wrapped a Luddy concert tom with the left over Abalone wrap from the outfit he sold me and sent it to me. He included the lugs and mount as well !
Also, ec curtis gifted me the reso lugs, (WOW, man !!) but as you see, I had to stagger them as concert toms have the lugs much more centered on the shell.
Seventies Luddy rims are apparantly hard to come by, but finally I found a couple.
So, thanks a HECKUVA lot Purdie and Curtis for making this happen !!!

Here's a couple of before and afters.....
