I cannot recall which angle was used for the tom arm Swivomatic plate of a Rogers Celebrity, Starlighter or Cozy Cole 14x22 bass drum. This is for mounting the tom back near the resonant head on the hard left looking from the drummer's seat. It's actually the same unit used for 22" bass spurs and the cymbal rods on the Cozy Cole setup.
Any assistance appreciated.
Hi Dan does this pic help?
It’s same as tom collet but opposite as the ride collet angle if that is what your referring to.
These were the three available options...
This is the exact picture I was looking for to post! Those angle descriptions made sense. Later catalogs called them 60-degree and 75-degree angles. I'm not sure how they measured those angles!-Mark
That picture is very good. Couldn't find that in the available online catalogs, though it probably was there. It looks like the one I'm after is a 311R. Must be 75-degree from vertical. So if you have a straight mount, this one would measure 75-degrees from what starts out, effectively, as 90 degrees. Surveyors might call it N-75-W or comparable in another quadrant.
Thanks K.O., et al.
Actually, looking at that photo again, it looks like the 311R would be 60 degrees and the 312R is 75.
Hey Dan!
I found this picture from the 1970 catalog and might offer a better explanation of the angles. Also, you'll notice that the part numbers have changed from those posted by K.O., but you should be able to figure out what is what!

Perfect Mark. So it is a 60 degree I'm looking for.
Thanks,
