Congratulations geldy7! Carpet can protect your floor and keep the drums from sliding. If your Tamas have spiked bass drum feet, you may need to experiment with what works as far as not scratching the floor versus your drums sliding around.

You might like the sound of the room without any curtains or whatever - see how it goes.

I bought my first actual “drum rug”. Not hugely exciting, but it goes well with my taste in drums.

I took that rug on tour this year, and it held up GREAT! Of course I was pretty much the only one who could actually see it...

I’m glad to hear that! It actually is lighter weight than I expected. If it holds up to touring I doubt it’ll have any problems holding up in the man cave.

I got my 6.5x13" Yamaha Brass Nouveau snare back last week. That's the drum I played in my high school band before I traded it for a few microphones to a guy who recently asked me to help him clear out his studio, and in return I got a few bucks and my old snare back. It even had the same heads on it! It's a fantastic drum.

I also got tired of having to shoehorn the tripod of my DW 9000-series snare stand into my setup, so I traded it in for one of the new Ludwig Atlas Pro snare stands with the Pillar Clutch basket after trying out a few different stands. It goes as high as I need it go (and, unfortunately, no higher) but I really like the basket and would gladly buy another one or two or three, especially if they make one with a taller base for rack toms.

Oh, I’ve got the Ludwig and Paiste collections, although not that particular shirt. I’ll probably need that now too!

Just got this 20" China Boy High on eBay.
Good price, and I always liked this model. It has rivets too, which I like.
Should have it next week

Canopus Club Kit in Bermuda Sand wrap and a Doc Sweeney Stave Kit, mixed species shells of White Oak and Leopardwood. My wife is right on the edge and ready to beat me to death in my sleep....

My new snare is in the wood on that pallet.

1967 Ludwig Acrolite in mint, near museum quality condition. Very different I must say from my '76 Acrolite. With the same tuning it has a bit more ring and snap.

Yesterday I bought a Rhythm Tech drum set tambourine in white. Peace and goodwill.

Oh, my!!!!!!! Those lugs!!!!!! Those are the most beautiful version of the Camco lugs that I've seen yet. Wow. Those things just ooze class and style. I wonder if they're available separately?

Scored this bad boy on market place. Mapex Deep Forest Walnut 14 X 6.5. Looking forward to getting my mits on her.

Had my eye on the 30th anniversary snare which is based on the deep forest. Got the original for less than half the cost of the 30th anniversary.

My new snare is in the wood on that pallet.

I don't see too many pieces long enough for a 14 inch diameter snare. Will it be all pieces, or is the picture deceptive.?
