A HEALTHY hammer on a solid base to work on has been necessary for me. Very possibly I have erred when I have done this. It is not always easy to find good information (for me) the first time I attempt something. Trial and error seems to be my forte. LOL
Believe me, I know. I spent a few hours finding the correct studs for the Boling Bros. slip on drums only to find out they sell the correct ones when asked. LOL! I believe they've since added them to their catalog.
