I don't have a kit to match the maple finish I want on the drum.
I would definately get a drum router guy to do the edges if need be. I sanded them today and they're pretty good....so far.
I [COLOR="Sienna"]LOVE SPARKLE TOO[/COLOR]
I will get the sparkle wrap to have on hand. I've got Sparkle Swatches coming - Gary at PrecisionDrum is mailing them.........NICE!
But, I want to do the Tung Oil finish first.
I am looking at wood dyes & I'll add the T/O on top to get the finish I want - testing it first on some maple wood.
I'm looking at something like what they sell here:
Will have to make sure I get a dye that will mix with oil.
They talk about guitar body finishes so it sounds like they know about staining instruments.
