I've got a big ass 26x14 bass drum, and I always get nervous whenever I have to move it around. I hate picking it up by the rims for fear that I will crack them due to the weight of the drum. Anyone ever experience this before? It's a 2015 Classic Maple kit so I'm sure the rims aren't crap, but nevertheless. I always try to grab by the rail mount at the top and the pedal at the bottom, both on opposing sides (front/back) to ensure even weight distribution. I just saw this video and almost had a heart attack at the thought of doing this to my drum!

I swear if I did that my hoops would crack!
