Bill,
I love the way you build drums like they're works of art.
And as long as I have your ear, let me say (off topic) that your vented LS, BOB, and Patina snares are the best value in snares on the drum market today. The amount of quality workmanship put into those drums, for the price, is absolutely amazing. The work that your company does puts phenomenal sounding drums into the hands of drummers like myself with limited funds, and for that I'm grateful to you.
Cheers,
