ULTRA LIGHT WEIGHT DRUM HARDWARE
7/8” diameter tubes 9 3/8” (24cm) and 4 1/4“ (10.5cm) lengths
Do you want ultra lightweight drum hardware? That’s what I’m about.
The tom arms pictured:
Theirs 1.47 lbs
Mine: 0.52 lbs
This is my first offering, the 7/8” tom arm, about 1/3 the weight of the leading brand. Conventional hardware is stupid heavy, the steel they use isn’t as good as Walmart bicycles. Therein lies if not my secret, my guidepost: cycling. I’m applying my love of bicycle building, frame making and using the cycling and aerospace industries’ super light weight metals to drum hardware. We use aircraft aluminum tubes In the arms. Fine drum hardware is long over due. In cycling parlance I’m what is called a weight weenie, a stickler on weight, I weigh everything.
Just think of the finest drums you can, then look at the pretty but heavy hardware they’re forced to use because why? Tradition? Convention? That’s all that’s available? Not any more! It should be like jewelry, pretty and weigh nothing. That’s what we’re trying to do.
Up next: a light weight cymbal stand using the same light weight tubing of the finest steel bikes, Columbus, Reynold’s 531, Tange. We’re talking innovative handmade artisan finery. Pretty and lightweight.
