This is so cool! I want to piece something together just like this. I picked up an old 26" Ludwig Universal bass drum to get started. I'd love to gig a kit like this some time.

Look on Ebay, sometimes you can pick up some old orphans for cheap to match your BD.

Really cool. I have a 28 inch Ludwig & Ludwig Pioneer bass drum and a 6X14 Ludwig & Ludwig snare. I have been looking for years for something to use for a rack and floor tom. What did you use for yours?

I picked up a 14"X 10" WFL drum from the 30's for cheap on Ebay. It was flaking and faded but all the parts were in good shape. I plugged all the holes (it came with imperial lugs and claws to hold the 2 rims) and refinished it. As for the floortom, i picked up an old Ludwig 3 ply shell. There too i plugged all the holes and refinished it. For the FT, i had to get 16" maple rims top and bottom ($$$$$) and i punched 3 FT legs in it.
