    Oh. I see now. Vivi22 assembles a drum, not Vivi. I was kind of curious b/c black magic is destructive not constructive, I wasn't sure how he was going to pull it off. But you're not black mage vivi.

    So what kind of magic are you going to use to assemble this drum, Vivi22?

    I hope that's not the final product because that's just a cylinder. You can do better than that, I'm sure.

    Not really custom order. I found a website that stocks Trick drum shells and got it there. All of their stuff is made out of various metals though they make their full kits and hardware from aluminum. This shell happens to be 14" in diameter by 7" deep and aluminum. The thing rings like a bell when you tap it.

    Just got it this week for my birthday, I'd bought the heads and a bit of the hardware before locally, and my order for the rest should be here this week. Monday if I'm lucky. Once I've got it all I'll do a run down of the hardware and do the step by step on assembly. I've got the layout for drilling the holes started already and I'm leaving the shell with its raw aluminum finish so it should go quickly once my package comes.

    As for what magic I'll be using, only the magic of mathematics, a drill and a screwdriver. But the drill is electric so I suppose I'm basically harnessing lightning for this. Better be careful.
