sorry if the some of audio or background music drops out, for some reason YT thinks it's copyrighted even though it's not and i've used it in the past.

That audio drop-out added a bit of drama. Like a realisation that something was wrong. Great work, again. 👍

Shawn, I like restoring old Slingy Sound King snares (brass ones). I made an inner and outer buck, then I press (squeeze) out the dents using both bucks and a big Wilton C-clamp. Mostly big dents where the lugs and strainers were pushed in. Worked pretty well and didn't leave hammer marks. Great channel.

@shawnsdrumcave 3 ай бұрын

Nice! I usually do a combination of clamping the buck like you said and "hammering" even tho it's just lightly tapping for the smaller dents, Thank you!

@michaelkrysiak5282 4 ай бұрын

Fine line between removing a dent and cracking the brass Proper buck makes it an easier task Nice work

Good Video !! Have you tried a Heat gun on the area that you are working on , and then continue using the plastic hammer ?

Please if you have a metal snare, you have to use a hard shell case. I've learned the hard way.

Great video, thanks for posting. Just wondering if you've had any experience correcting faulty bearing edges on metal drums? Would the nylon hammers potentially work to straighten out a 2-3mm dip in the edge? It's like a snare bed but in the top edge!

@shawnsdrumcave 5 ай бұрын

Thank you! Hammer by itself probably wouldn't work. It really depends on if you can get at it in between the rolled over edge, may need to use something else to get at it.

Nice video. I have a Ludwig Black Acrolite, that seems to have been dropped on its side. The edge is out of round, which come to find out made the head not sit so well, and it was a pain to try and tune. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

@shawnsdrumcave 5 ай бұрын

I usually try pressure with just my arms holding the drum straight up with the high point of the "egg shape" under my hands and gently push down, little bit, check, little bit more. If it's more of a dented edge, the inside radius of a wood buck with a spreader clamp but go easy. Thanks for watching!

What about the real dents on the stainer area? And what about the roundness?

@shawnsdrumcave 5 ай бұрын

Not sure what you mean, I showed the whole drum before and after including the strainer area after I removed them and it was never out of round, nothing I did would effect that. It's still in round, heads fit nice and spin freely.
