Zoomatics had three holes.
Two holes upper for the mounting screws and one hole at an uspide triangle point for the tension adjusting screw.
You can kind of see it on this page
Should be no problem finding a Zoomatic on Ebay. Expect it in the $75 - $100 Price range. More if it is mint and or NOS

You can also see it in this photo. The inside of the drum top left photo.

Thanks very much David, ihave just found a contact on your site in america ,asking if any one had a tama imperial star strainer , thats what i have on my slingerland so we have been in touch,and the short story is the zoomatic is a lot closer now. Im from uk and at the moment on ebay there is a camco from the seventees in ,as new condition, i like it but not sure wether its worth 1,690 pounds as im not familliar with camco ,just that it seems they are quite collectable, woul d you have any advice on this matter,the sizes are 12/13/16/22/with a 14/5 steel snare. thanks for previous info ,this is a superb website many thanks...chris uk
