Please help Identify Parts

Hi guys,

I bought some old drums parts the other day and was wondering if anyone could tell me who made these parts?

One is an old lug and claw with a drum key. The other is an old snare throw off.

Howdy Prostix,

The tension rod and claws look like late 1800s to early 1900s to me - roughly 1880 - 1910. Not sure if there's any way to definitively identify the company. A lot of builders were using this kind of generic, bulky, single tension hardware at the time. I have a drum distributed by (but not necessarily built by) the Thompson & Odell company of Boston, MA which dates from sometime around there. Check it out here. Your rods are similar but aren't a perfect match for what that's worth.

Someone around here will be able to identify the strainer for you. Probably a Leedy or Slingerland part but I'll leave it to those in the know.
