I say just drill for some Ludwig lugs!LoLoLoLo

Keep searching Ebay and the lugs will eventually turn up and they will not be cheap...

There are new replacement b&b lugs which are expensive, but will do the job.

Vintage Drum Restoration = Patience

If you are not patient, then you do crazy things! The hardest part is waiting for the part to appear. I find that after I find that hard to find part, three or four more come up!

In regards to a non-original, non b&b replacement lug the guys over at drum maker have tons of lugs to pick from..

I have some of the lugs you desire... I have no use for them and would gladly send them to you...

Hi, Tom,

I just sent you a PM.

THANKS for your consideration!

I looked and found that the lugs I have are few and in not so good condition.. However I'll get them out to you ASAP... I believe awhile back I recall a place in Rode Island that had Rogers parts... Perhaps they are still in business..

Tom Venable

Sorry to take so long getting back to you...

Thanks, Tom.

I appreciate your help!

Please consider selling before you drill. If you must, drill for beavertails instead, at least it will look appropriate. This will devalue the drum alot.

I can assure you that I have absolutely NO INTENTION of "drilling."

I'll wait it out and, hopefully, SOMEDAY, complete the drum as it should be.

Appreciate your comments!

There are at least 2 different b&b snare lugs. I have 2 Holiday snares that I acquired without lugs. On one,Kent heavy solid brass lugs fit perfectly and sorta resemble beavertails (from a distance). On the second,the generic Pearl beavertail style lug also fit perfectly. On a matching b&b bass drum,the Pearl generic beavertail bass lug also fit w/o any modification.There are also some lugs on E Bay by Mity Lite from time to time with the same hole spacings.They look "similar" to Ludwig Classics with the 3 grooves in them.
