Thanks leedybdp!
That was a great set of tubs. Hopefully the guy that bought them is still enjoying them.

Finally something I feel I can chime in on

All are re-wraps using products from Canal, and all look better in person.

Those are three beautiful drum sets that you should be proud of giving new life.

Thank You kindly DionneDrummer, I have been at it for a while now. Here are two seller's pics of my white satin flame "Black Jacks" by Star, missing only the bass drum inlays. These blue flame Apollos also by Star are the first satin flame kit in my display. The re-wrapped Ludwig rockers were purchased in pieces, I brought the shells into my shop, but left the lugs and other bits, in the car. A few days later, someone stole the car, with the rocker parts as well. Eight months later, the car was recovered, heavily vandalized and partially stripped, but the rocker hardware was right where I left it. So I was finally able to re-assemble them. The final pic is some distressed Premere 75th anniversary drums in marmalade satin flame. They were a practice kit for a local working drummer who had passed. I have them fleshed out with hardware and cymbals and alternate between them and a few others.
