Please make a sugru bass beater!

Maybe a sugru-based practice pad could be interesting...

Every cymbal bag in the history of cymbal bags has a broken zipper. #truth. Great vid!

I'm digging the snare chops!!!

Lmfaoooooo at the drum key getting sucked into the abyss

I dont even plan on being a drummer, but the order and dedication this guy haves is just inspiring.

Your combo of drumming and crafting content is so incredibly satisfying to watch. And those beats, too!

what about a sugru bass beater?

I don't have a favorite but I don't have a less favorite. all I know is you rdavidr are a drum genius. you come up with the best ideas for drums and drumming I have ever seen. you have saved me money by using some of your ideas and the best part is they work.

I love that I watched this video from beginning to end with rapt attention and I am not a drummer, I have never used sugru, and never seen this channel. A soothing voice and informative narration hypnotized me 0_0 Loved it!

I get so much joy looking at your videos

1 Tip for Sugru is to store it in the Freezer, it has a shelf life and storing it in the freezer extends it massively. I still a couple boxes of Sugru in my freezer from when I bought like 5 boxes 6 Years ago and believe it or not it still works just as well as it did when I bought it. I actually just tried the "practice tips" for the sticks on my Rockband Drum Kit to stop the loud crack sound when playing and it works great. Can't believe I never thought of that before. 👍👍

Dude I just found your channel and I watched like 15 videos in a row this is great stuff, man. Keep it up.

I'm actually a trumpet player and have no idea why I watched this, great vid though :)

I love the whole practice stick idea! I play tenors for my highschool band and tenor practice pads are expensive, so this is a really cheap way to be quiet and still be able to practice

5:54 i literally thought he was gonna make mallets

I really liked the practice stick hack. That seems very useful.

I really enjoyed the bass drum hoop saver hack, as well as the magnetic drum key. totally going to do that one!

Dude that stuff is pure magic! Really cool ideas too! Probs gonna use it as a drum key holder sometime! 🥁👌

the bass ring one really helped. thank you

i really liked how you formed the sugru to fix the Drum key on the hi hat stand! well done

great vid, huge fan!!!! Keep up the great work

Sugru! So awesome! My favorite has to be the key holder on the hihat stand. I'm always looking for my tuning key.

I don't play drums but this is one of my favorite channels for the music and the building you do and my favorite hack was the one about the drum keys that was a smart idea .keep it up your loyal fan jake

Which was your favorite? Also, how would you use this around your kit?

Damn your technique is sick! nice video! subbed!

Good job on 16k subs!

Used it years ago to repair a cymbal stand, haven't moved since yet! Sugru is awsome!

First of all... Holy damn your technique is amazing! That test on the table frikkin' blew me away haha! But to the point. I'm curious about your bass drum pedal... It looks like a sort of frankenstein pedal, made with parts from different companies. Could you tell me (or make a video) about it, the base of it, what changes you made etc? Really love it and I'm curious! Keep up the awesome work!

Love the magnet on the key trick! I'm gonna do that.

Those were some great ideas! Drum key + magnet was my favorite. Thanks :)

I did the drum key one and it is great, also did it for my drum sticks on this CD holder hanging on my wall next to my drum set and I love it it's very handy to have my sticks there

The stick tips hack is right on dude! Totally worked!

i loved the idea of using them to make practice sticks

My favorite was the key holder on the hi-hat stand, but I wonder how well the shape holds up after the stand being in a hardware bag.

loved the sugru practice sticks

I actually used Sugru on one of my sticks, where the nylon tip kept popping off as I played. It worked surprisingly well.

My favorite hack was the last one👌Great job!!!!🙂

my FAV was the drum stick hack and I would use it for organization

love those diy practice sticks!

yeah, i love just the little innovative things. you could do what you did for the hi hat key stand, but bigger on your kick drum to hold sticks steady, or even on the side of your floor tom at some weird angle would be very handy. The idea of cymbal sleeves is good, but it might take a lot of damage, so i reckon it would make better felts, which you could make bigger depending on how dampening you want them to be. separators for cymbal stacks, just to keep contact points healthy. it might roll out thin to make a nice kick beater pad/ dampener. You could easily fashion or attach cable holders/ hooks for multicores to keep them nice and tidy. Depending on the reverb coefficient, it might be a healthy alternative to neoprene for mic stand dampening for the feet, if not at least an easy replacement mic stand feet that always go bloody missing! if you wanna delve deeper into this kind of brain fart let me know, i'll happily indulge you via email!

Thanks for posting a vid on my B-day!

Honestly was so excited when he started talking about scojo and dci 😂

The drum sticks are sick! I'm going to try it on my sticks

I felt a bass drum beater and/or stick grip coming on. I liked the practice tips.

Ha Scottie Johnson's! Haven't seen those in years. Didn't realize you had a marching background. Nice clean rudiments in the test.

The practice tips were my favorite!!

practice tips are great. overall good video, keep it up😀

New hats??

Really dug the practice sticks. Beats the hell out of carrying a drum pad.

What are you playing when you tested the practice tips?? That sounds cool and I'd like to learn it

"I hate losing my drum key, so now I can stick it to my shelf!" He says as he sticks his key next to the shelf that has a metric ton of drum keys

ur an amazing drummer!

yoooooo the drum key hacks... mind blowing!

Subaru? Yea I heard of Subaru 😂😂😂

My drum key came with a rubber band in the whole so I just hang on on my drum

Rad video! Please do a video on the hack options of taking a single rack tom off the kick drum and mounting else where.

Sugru custom earplugs or custom ear tips would be an awesome video!

I love your videos , and your Humor , To hold my drum keys and sweat rags and other junk, I use a cheap tag sale fanny pack. I put it around the floor tom. Works pretty well for me . The only problem is when I go hiking,now I have to carry the drum with me !

Really like the drum key locator and hoop rash cure. Very creative. Have any hacks for soft drum cases?

Hey, these ones are just great. Could you make cymbal sleeves\felts out of Sugru? There is some product like this, that acts like a sleeve and a felt as one - you just put it through a mounting hole of a cymbal and put the thing on a bare stand with just a washer. Also - dampeners for drums/cowbell? Some kind of tune lock (if it's strong enough)? Tips for floor tom legs? Maybe, even crazy shaped wingnuts for cymbal stands? Also - grats on the new hats!

i would love to see an episode where you make a bassdrum beater out of it!

I think my favorite was the bass drum hoop saver :P

Nice routine with the practice sticks

Nice chops.

Hey David, loving the vids do you think you could show us how to make a stave snare?

How about using the sugru for a cymbal mute?for example, putting it on the edge.

+rdavidr I like the drum key applications. Also, the old scojos are called the MS6 Chop-Out. I love those for chop sessions. Well, I love Vic Firth, period xD

I actually like the practice stick hack can really use it when I need to warm up fit shows

You are awesome at drums

For the drum keys and loose screws and such i have this old .30 caliber ammo can that i put sticks and keys under my floor tom.

I agree with all of your ideas

Im a drummer so I know exactly the struggle and I use those hacks all the time especially the key one so thanks

Thanks!😊

You could wrap sugru around your cymbal arms where cymbal sleeves usually go!

I actually bought some black Sugru to use on an old throne repair job. It's an old Ludwig portathrone and the rubber tips on the legs are really torn up, so Here's hoping I can fix them with Sugru!

@rdavidr is there a video on how to make those wooden drum key holders? They look very cool!

Nice video. Can you maybe make a video how YOU tune your drums because i like the sound of them ;)

Sugru bass drum beater

The only place I've ever kept my drum keys is on the tension screw of either the snare or floor tom. Never had 'em bounce off, ever. I have a small leather bag that I carry extra's in(foot pedal springs, white grease, multi tool, cymbal stand wing nut screws, drum keys, et al) that never leaves the trap case except when I set up for the job. Your vids seem a little over the top for me, but interesting concepts at least.

I thought you were going to make like Zildjian Dip Sticks type drum sticks with the sugru, but the practice sticks are a good idea too haha

drum stick hack I have used it and it works great

You are a genius

So I’ve got some drum sticks marks on my bass drum Tord’s the front it’s a black wrap finish. What do you recommend to buff it out my kit is not to old made in 2005 got it in 2008

You should make a video about your music career or whatever. Like when you started playing and if you marched, etc.

All of the drum keys!

Pretty cool, man

SUBSCRIBED. YOU ARE A GENIUS

I would maybe use it to hold my cymbals when I'm missing the plastic protector thing on the cymbal stand. Would it work to put around the threads to hold the cymbal on?

i took chad smiths tip to put velcro around the key and then stick the other park to the bass drum, so youll never lose the key again, but the magnet idea might be better

Some ideas for you. Sugru drum mutes (like moon gel or a thin bfsd), bass drum beater, alternative to Vic grip or plasti dip

Gibraltar makes a drum key holder that clips onto your hi hat stand, I have been using the same key for a long time!

the sugru stix were pretty dope

Use it on cymbal sleeves as a perniment cymbal felt

Genio!! saludos desde Argentina!

lets get this dude to 100K

When you test the sticks, can u have a lesson how you play. Hand setings?

This stuff might work for bass drum claws. I noticed yours are padded against the hoop. My brand-spankin" new Catalina Club is not. I've been looking for something to use. I think I just found it! Yay!

Lmao, I put my key in the vent hole for my BD since its a HUGE hole and the key itself is pretty small.

“This video was quite long” oh how things have changed hahahahahaha. I remember I watched this 7 years ago in high school and I was amazed. It’s not uncommon for me to watch 40+ minute videos now lol
