Here's another look at how these Compact Nesting Kits can work: a shallower bass with a deeper floor tom and regular mounted tom means that the 3 pieces all fit in one case where the snare would be carried separately. For more kicks and grins, this project sports Spider Leg Spurs. 7x12, 13x16, 14x20; plied maple; satin wax.

Here's a fun project showing a set using some of the new 6061 hardware mixed with some standard chrome hardware.

A "Silver Lining" story: For the past 20 years, the 5 drum lesson studio rooms at Supersonic Music have had a mix of various brands of drums for students and teachers to work on--some have been cool, some cruddy. Amid all the frustrations that the COVID Lockdown brought upon us all in 2020, we had some time to make progress on one of Derek's ideas of having TreeHouse Drums in the studios. Featuring the great-condition hardware (lugs, spurs, brackets, etc) from some of the studio kits to work on new maple shells, check out these great drumsets and snare drums that folks'll get to whack upon while learning this great artform!
