I stop by my local pawn shops usually about every other week or so just to see if anything catches my eye. One thing I have noticed is that most shops have quite a few cymbals stacked up in a corner somewhere. Even the shops that don't have much drum equipment still seem to have plenty of cymbals for some reason...and for pretty good prices sometimes.
Anyway, I'm looking to add a ride and maybe a little splash if something catches my eye, so I made a little holder to use while checking them out in the store. Basically an eye-bolt, flat washer and nut. Screwed on a sleeve with felt and there you have it. I can rest a cymbal on it while I hold it and see what it truly sounds like. I just keep it in my truck's glove box and grab it when I stop by a pawn shop.
