This was a recent gigging setup. All of the cymbals, other than the hi-hat and ride, were salvaged from broken cymbals. This is a great arrangement for low-volume gigs.
After sawing up one of the oak stumps into slabs, I forgot to sweep the sawdust off my bandsaw table top. A day later and this is what I found. A little elbow grease took care of almost all of it.
My neighbor cut down one of her Oregon White Oak trees and had a few stumps left over. She gave them to me and I'm working on cutting them into slabs so they can dry out. These beasts are heavy!
Cutting angle-iron with a chop saw, shown in slow-motion. This is a slightly modified version of a video I posted on YouTube. It had to be shortened to accommodate Instagram's <60 second requirement.
Cutting metal tubing for a workbench.
I'm shooting some high-speed footage of a metalworking project I'm working on.
Well, I'm back at it. Lots of sparks and smoke. I've got a couple of days of cutting them I'll be burning off the powder-coating before cleaning them up and welding them into a new workbench.
I'm getting all moved into my new studio/office. It's still messy and I'm not 100% sure about the placement of everything but it's nice to have all my gear in one location. What you can't see in this photo is the closet that stores my percussion gear.
I got the outside of my 8" snare all lathed up. I even took it for a test drive and set a drumhead on it to see how it fit. It was perfect. Now to sand it and start on the inside. Since this is such a small drum, I won't be able to fit a router on the inside. I have a plan but it's going to be time consuming. Since I'm heading out of town in a few days, I think I'll wait until I get back before I get started on the inside.
