They're on the way. Few more little things to tidy up. Then it's onto clear coat and a fresh coat of chocolate milk on the interiors. Haven't started the bass drum yet. Leaving that bad boy for last.

The Slingerland project is moving along nicely. Got the wrap removed from the toms. Holes plugged and filling any little or big wood gaps. Appears the shells were stained at one point. The interiors will get a fresh coating of chocolate milk paint, thinking of going with a nice semi-gloss black finish for the exterior.

The newest Slingerland project. Need to unwrap, plug extra holes and get them back to beautiful.

18" Sabian XS crash. This sucker cracker in a very odd way. Been sitting in the pile for years as I was never sure if i wanted to make anything with it, or if I even could. Managed to crate this little guy. Works / sounds better as a time keeper than a crasher. This may be a mini ride in the kit.

Here is a vintage 18" Zildjian A that I turned into a custom splash / bell for myself. Had originally repaired it, but it never had the same feel. I'll get a video soon.
