I opted for a black bag (takes up less space), but rest assured @jda, I'll have an oxygen hook-up to the bag so that they can breathe.I never never cloister them in dark unbreathing bags even the ones I hate- which- I don't have any of those..
You don't know what's in Joseph's mind (nice try tho)Joseph needs to turn carpenter and build hisself anutter cymbal shelf!![]()
Dreamy!
This.Stored in other bags.
That is very creative and looks impressive! I especially like the brass nut.I have a few larger ride cymbals in two cymbal bags stored upright. Otherwise whatever else isn't being currently used on my kit--around 16 cymbals--are stored on two wall units I built. Fortunately I had enough scrap lumber, stain and paint to do a zero cost build.
That's pretty cool.This little cart is handy if you don't have a hundred cymbals lol.

I can imagine that is very true... especially with the fridge underneath.It's perfect for mymoodcymbal changes.
Thanks man! Well, that was a picture when I just built it, around 9 years ago, this is a current pic:

Time to build another one![]()
Well, I can't take credit for the angled boards as someone else built a similar rack and I 'borrowed' the idea.I like your rack idea, especially the angled base. Just yesterday, I added on to my existing drum shelf, making it a couple feet taller. Mine is a standard shelf configuration. The only thing I haven't figured out is how to efficiently store bass drums. I have three bass drums I'm not using and I just stack them in cases. I lay a sheet of plywood between them just to distribute the weight better on the rims rather than the heads.
As for cymbals, I've always stored them in soft cases and leaned them up against the wall. Using your idea, I guess I could build a similar rack just for cymbals that could incorporate your angled base while still accommodating cymbal bags. Hmmm....
Sounds like a simple yet effective way to manage them.Each cymbal has a 2- or 3-letter code under the bell, and I do keep track of which cymbals (and drums & percussion) were used on which tracks.![]()
That looks to be an adequate and economical solution to keep in mind. Thx!I store my cymbals in a wooden box and/or in hard cases ready to go.
