​3 mounted, floor, bass, snare…all that fits into 2 cases!  Toss a little black hardware in to be unique, and you'll look-n-sound great at the gig!  This configuration is comprised of a 5-pc Compact Nesting Kit CS-205 with an add-on 8" tom for when you need a little more high end on your grooves/fills.  The 10" - 13" - 16" - bass drum - snare drum all nest (just like a standard CS-205) with the 8"carried separately. 8x8, 8x10, 9x13, 10x16, 16x20, 4½x14; plied maple; satin wax.

​Always happy to support the brave men and women who choose to serve our country in the military!  This project goes out to a US Army base in Georgia and is outfitted with all the bells-n-whistles-n-a-tray-to-hold-the-whistle as well cymbal arms on the bass to minimize the footprint on the carpet.  Hooah! 7x10, 10x14, 16x18, 4½x14; plied maple; satin wax.

​Wow!  Solid Bubinga shells w/Tube Lugs and Bubinga Wood Hoops, just-what-he-wanted hardware and custom cymbals...our new friend in Israel has the best drumset on the block! 7x10, 8x12, 14x14, 18x22, 6½x14; solid one-ply bubinga; satin wax.

Simple elegance -- with a little flair -- to rearrange your bowels.  Standard sizes just sound SO BIG when they're made this way! 10x13, 16x16, 16x22; plied maple; satin wax.

​These drums'll be flying high with our boys in the US Air Force!  Featuring our "Swoosh Blue" seemed apropos! 7x10, 9x13, 15x16, 4½x12; plied maple; satin wax.

​Wowza!  Sportin' a warm Azteca Gold coat, this 5-pc nesting kit wraps up all nice and snug into two cases -- this artist wanted a deeper floor tom so the snare lives in its own case while the rest nest in one case. Shown here is also another mounting idea: those ⅞” brackets on the bass are multi-purpose! 8x10, 9x13, 12x16, 16x20, 6x14; plied maple; satin wax.

​More Spines In Line!  Here's another way to sound great without slipping a disc loading out after the gig: 12"/14"/22" Vintage Mahogany shells with 6061 lugs, legs, and spurs rolling in at about 25 pounds TOTAL for the three drums.  Save on chiropractic bills with a kit like this! 8x12, 14x14, 20x22; vintage mahogany; satin wax.

​Wearing a dapper suit of Charcoal Pearl Wrap, this splendid Compact Nesting Kit features a super-sturdy DW tom arm ready to hold everything together! 8x10, 9x13, 14x16, 18x20, 5½x14; plied maple; Charcoal Pearl Wrap.

​Just another cool possibility! 11" mounted into a 14" into a 20" with a 14" snare. Boom! 7x11, 10x14, 16x20, 4½x14; plied maple; satin wax.

Here's another view of some great placements of the new lightweight 6061 Aluminum hardware on a maple kit.  The shells, though a fresh new build, were modeled after the 20th Anniversary series in some respects, including a dye closely resembling the color of the 20th Anniversary Collection.  How do you want yours to look? 7½x12, 10x16, 16x20, 4½x14; plied maple; satin wax.
