I'd choose joey's snare. its more "metally"

pwede yun sir... shell lang naman papagawa.. lipat na lang yung ibang parts...

@ wax_static - dud did u drill the holes your self? how will you get the bearing edges done?

wax_static · « **Reply #102 on:** December 21, 2006, 12:28:18 AM »

drilled it my self sir, peeves advised me to use a blunt tipped(sides only) drill bit. this will prevent cracking of the shell... re the bearing edges... peeves suggested I should a usae a table router.. if not, do it manually... in my case... I used an ordinary electric drill with a porting stone bit... but you'll need steady hands if you're gonna use my method

tapos na pala snare bed!!! and himas ng konti sa bearing edges///

sound file na lang kulang.... waaah... wala akong matinong mic dito....

pero kung tatanungin nyo kung satisfied ako sa tunog nya...

VERY!!!!! hehehehe

diko akalain makakagawa ako ng snare na ganito tunog!!!!

peeves,

ok naman yung 14" diameter na shell?
sakto naman?

ayos yan bro!

peeves24 · « **Reply #110 on:** December 24, 2006, 06:16:33 PM »

^^^ yup ayos yung 14"

isa pang bad trip paskong pasko pa naman haay

bumili ako ng tension rods at bass claws kanina. pagdating ko excited na patunugin yung bass drum pero masyado maliit yung tension rods na kasama ng claws at pasok sya sa loob ng lugs mismo. hindi kumakapit yung thread

ayos naman yung nabili ko para sa toms pero hindi pa rin sya fit e. undersized din pero mareremedyuhan. kasi kung di ko aayusin palaging madedetune yung toms ko. yung bass talaga hopeless, ibabalik ko pa sa tindahan

wish ko before new year, pengeng good luck

pmack · « **Reply #111 on:** December 24, 2006, 06:59:42 PM »

peeves24 · « **Reply #120 on:** December 29, 2006, 01:54:31 PM »

ok this sucks big time...my 10" shell is not going to be a drum after all

im at the office and called MAC to ask if they would be open tomorrow sat, they say no, they will be closed till jan 2. that's too long and i cant wait and sit around doing nothing so i left the office with an emergency excuse. went home, took the shell and heads and commuted to binondo.

i met the owner and showed him that the shell is too big and asked if he can do something about it. he said flatly NO. well i knew correcting it would be a problem since i had reinforcement rings installed but if they couldnt repair it, they could at least make me a new one or return part of the money i paid for. no amount of reasoning can get thru this guy, no apologies from him either. instead he pointed me to another acrylic shop across the san fernando bridge to have my shell trimmed down. i knew its hopeless to argue so i packed and went my way. what sucks is that i actually have to pay somebody else to correct MAC's mistake.

unfortunately the other shop couldnt take my shell as they were neck deep in back jobs too. they also warned me that if they trim the shell down, it wont be as clear as it is now and no amount of bufffing cant put it back the way it was. i suggested cutting the shell vertically and glueing it back but they said the shell will crack when we put it back.

now im back at the office, have to stay for 3 more hours today coz that's how long my miserable quest took. sorry for the rant. if you are considering getting a shell from the owner just beware. he's not helpful nor customer friendly at all. he doesnt even listen to what you say no matter how many times you try to explain.

final word of advice, if you want a shell made, be sure to subtract 1/4" from the total diameter e.g. if you want a 14" shell, order 13 and 3/4 instead.

peeves24 · « **Reply #121 on:** December 31, 2006, 10:39:29 AM »

eto yung remedyo ko sa 10" tom para magkasya yung head. i trimmed the outer edge 3/4" deep and took off about 1/8" on the total diameter of the shell.

anyway baka magpagawa na lang ulit ako ng isa pang 10" shell para sa kit tapos itong current 10" ko gagawin kong snare later. parang asiwa ako dahil imperfect yung shell para dun sa kit. gagamitin ko lang muna sya as tom for now habang wala pa ko pera ulit.

ang kapal ng bearing edge. it usually takes me 10 minutes to cut both edges on a wood drum but since this is the thickest edge i've cut so far, took me an hour an 15 minutes for the 10". the 14" tom took about an hour and a half

after cutting pic pa lang, lihahin ko pa ng 1200 grit para kuminis yan. ginawa ko sharp 45 degree edge para resonant yung toms. pinaka resonant yung double 45 degree cut pero baka mapasobra naman yung overtones.

ready na for drilling lahat ng shells

bad news kay gep, natanggal yung dikit nung seam sa shell nya. nangyari pa to kung kelan tapos na yung cutting ng edge. kailangan tuloy iparepair pa sa MAC at palagyan ng reinforcement

pahinga lang ako kasi charging pa yung drill ko, tuloy ang ligaya mamaya

may bago akong boom boom sa new year wiiiiiiiiii

this is bullhsit!

no need pre, bagong taon naman. i made my peace and i made it work so i dont have kill anyone this new year

peeves24 · « **Reply #124 on:** December 31, 2006, 05:27:31 PM »

break time ulit. post lang ng pics

haaay pagod na. bass drum na lang. at ngayon ko lang na realize, hindi pa pala ko nakakabili ng L-rods

di ko sila magagamit tonight huhuhu

toms ko, they sound suprisingly resonant and deep.

initial review ko sa aquarian heads...i dont like them at all...too muffled even with the classic clear model (single ply).

the aquarians are not at all bad. they are perfect for drums that are too bright. id use single ply aquarians only, their double plies are too heavy and sound boxy.

i might get remo clear ambassadors and open the sound more
