Drum Key Display

[SpazApproved]

So I had the day off today and I enjoy the day in the tool shop... and this is what I came up with!
What do you guys think! It's a 16x20 and holds 20 keys.

Also made a video DIY

 

[Sonar Dave]

Which is your fav?

Which is your fav?

that's tough... My go to is the black PDP with magnetic back. I use that a lot.. I own three of them actually lol

The Gibraltar drill key is also a great one for me changing heads quick lol

As far as looks go, probably one of the Centent cymbals key.

I want to starting finding collectible and cool drum keys to add to this. I just filled it with a bunch of keys I found lying around the drum room to fill the photo.

Looks great. Cool collection. Now, are you going to wrap it to match one of your drumsets?

 

[IBitePrettyHard]

You're an absolute madman.

I love it.

 

[BobC]

You're a sick man, but I mean that in a good way.

 

[Tracii]

What do they sit on? Screws?

BTW, those pictures would make for a great riddle for the uninitiated. I wonder how many non-drummers would have a clue what they're looking at.

It's a 16x20 and holds 20 keys.

And that's the first 20-lug 16x20 I've seen.

OMG...i freakin love that!. I also am a drum key fanatic nutcase bizzaro. Stain the case a lite mahogany. I'm going to look for some kind of shelf like yours at the flea markets my fiance and I go to every weekend. Your collection is impressive. I'm so relieved that I'm not the only key lover. . Keep going!.

You need a Piano Tuner!

 

[PorkPieGuy]

I'd love to have something like that! I'd really like to display all of my drum keys, but they are currently spread out all over NC, VA, SC, KY, etc.

 

[Suburbankidz]

Love this! And way better than a display of collector shot glasses

 

[GretschedHive]

That looks absolutely fantastic! But my sense of perspective was off at first, and it looked to me as though each key was about a foot (30cm) tall.

I screwed tension rods into the wood so they sit on actual tension rods.

 

[Vintage Old School]

Great display!

I like what you've done. Like you, I love drum keys and own way too many. Having them on display is very cool.

Looks awesome. I recommend these for more modest collections!

Reminds me of those golf ball shelves. Very useful.
