It's hard to see but the subject of the film is the Shure SM57 microphone, which is positioned on my first floor tom, directly under one of my ride cymbals. There are actually two of them there, side-by-side, one of which has been modified into a right-angle microphone.

I only had two days to make these, including the time for the finish to cure, so there are a few mistakes that I wish I could fix, but, overall, I like how they turned out.
